Abstract

Patente de Invenção: <B>"INSPEçãO DE NìVEL DE ENCHIMENTO DE RECIPIENTE E PRESSURIZAçãO USANDO IMAGENS MULTI-DIMENSIONAIS"<D>. Um sistema de inspeção de recipiente para inspecionar um recipiente em movimento (116) inclui uma fonte de radiação (102) posicionada para direcionar radiação no recipiente em movimento. Um detector de radiação (104) está posicionado para receber uma porção da radiação proveniente da fonte de radiação que não é absorvida ou bloqueada pelo recipiente em movimento e para gerar sinais em resposta a ela. O circuito de processamento (106) produz dados de imagem multi-dimensional para o recipiente em movimento com base nos sinais elétricos gerados pelo detector de radiação, e compara pelo menos uma primeira porção dos dados de imagem multi-dimensional a uma porção correspondente dos dados de imagem multi-dimensional para um recipiente padrão. Depois disso, o circuito de processamento determina, com base em um resultado da comparação, uma ou mais características incluindo o nível de enchimento do recipiente, se o recipiente está sub-cheio, se o recipiente está cheio em excesso, se o recipiente está apropriadamente pressurizado, e se o recipiente está vedado.
