Description of drawings
The present invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with the drawings and the specific embodiments.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of apparatus of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is the single track thin-walled wall part photo that does not adopt the present invention to be shaped.
Fig. 3 is the single track thin-walled wall part photo that adopts apparatus of the present invention and method to be shaped.
Embodiment
As shown in Figure 1, a kind of device that utilizes optical method on-line measurement melt pool height includes image-forming component 8, light path multiplying arrangement 5, light sensor 7, anti-dazzling screen 11, attenuator 9, optical filter 10.
Wherein image-forming component 8 is aperture or lens combination, and its effect is that light or high energy beam that nozzle sends are passed through the energy centralization of molten bath 1 reflection to light activated element thereafter.The installation site of image-forming component 8 be aperture place or lens center apart from the requirement of molten bath 1 according to enlargement factor, can be taken at 1~4 times of focal length place, make the molten bath on light sensor 7, to become real image; The centre normal of image-forming component 8 and light or laser high energy beam axle center angle are the acute angle greater than 15 °.Anti-dazzling screen 11 is equipped with in the place ahead of image-forming component 8, and optical filter 10 and attenuator 9 are equipped with in the place ahead of image-forming component 8 or rear.The effect of anti-dazzling screen 11 is only to allow near molten bath 1 light to enter, and covers most of ambient light.The effect of attenuator 9 is light ray energy when molten bath 1 reflection when too strong, can play the effect of even decay, with light sensor 7.The effect of optical filter is only to allow the light of some wavelength to pass through under situation about having.Such as when high energy beam is Nd:YAG laser, this optical maser wavelength is 1064nm, and install the narrow band pass filter that centre wavelength is 1064nm this moment additional before camera lens, only allow laser light reflected to see through, and just can avoid the influence of other light to testing result.
Light path multiplying arrangement 5 is made up of the catoptron more than the two sides, its objective is to prolong light path when dwindling whole device volume, makes that the displacement of hot spot on light sensor 7 increased when molten bath 1 height rose and fell, thereby signal is amplified.
