DEVICE FOR SCANNING THE DIVISION MARKS OF A MECHANICAL ROLLER COUNTING MECHANISM IN COUNTERS OF ALL TYPES USING RFID TECHNOLOGY

摘要

The invention relates to a device for scanning the division marks of a mechanical roller counting mechanism in counters of all types, comprising a plurality of rotatably driven indicator wheels, wherein each indicator wheel has a number of digits or symbols uniformly distributed over the circumference, wherein said digits or symbols can be detected and evaluated by a stationary read device disposed opposite thereof, characterised in that in the respective indicator wheel of the counting mechanism at least one transponder is associated with one or more digits or symbols, and opposite said transponder, an RFID antenna field is disposed by means of which the digits or symbols of the indicator wheel of the counting mechanism can be read or the current reading of the counter can be determined.
