And, between reflection type optical path transformation component 140 and optical splitter 150, can be provided with the optical fiber of guiding light path or converge the condenser that incides each optical splitter 150, but being not limited thereto.
Describe the How It Works S100 of the first embodiment of the thickness detection apparatus that utilizes above-mentioned digit optical technology below, in detail.
Fig. 5 is the precedence diagram that schematically represents the thickness detecting method that utilizes digit optical technology of the first embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 6 is the precedence diagram of the coupling step in the thickness detecting method that utilizes digit optical technology shown in presentation graphs 5 schematically, and Fig. 7 is the schematic diagram that is schematically illustrated in the direction in searching and detecting region in the surveyed area search step shown in Fig. 6.
As shown in Figure 5, the method for measuring thickness S100 that utilizes digit optical technology of the first embodiment of the present invention comprises image storage step S110, coupling step S120, angle of reflection regulating step S130 and thickness detecting step S140, can detect the thickness of detected object 105 by carrying out these processes.
Described image storage step S110 is the step that stored the image of detected object 105 for recognition detection region before carrying out thickness detection. , comprise that with optical system shot detection object 105 image itself that the region of surveyed area obtains saves as master pattern, and apply in coupling step S120 described later.
Described coupling step S120 is the master pattern that stores in movement images storing step S110 and photograph the image on display part 160, to judge whether surveyed area is included in the step in the detection range of the first embodiment of the present invention 100.
As shown in Figure 6, till coupling step S120 preferably repeatedly proceeds to surveyed area and is all presented on display part 160, when only showing a part for surveyed area or do not show completely on display part 160, carry out centering step (centeringprocess) S121 or surveyed area search step S122.
Described centering step S121 is the step of carrying out only show surveyed area a part of on display part 160 time, is the displacement that makes detected object 105 or lens section 130, makes surveyed area all be presented at the step on display part 160.
According to the first embodiment of the present invention 100, the master pattern storing in movement images storing step S110 in centering step S121 be presented at the image on display part 160, calculate the position of detecting at present, utilize the positional value calculating to calculate the alternate position spike between itself and surveyed area and make detected object 105 or lens section 130 moves.
As shown in Figure 7, described surveyed area search step S122 is the step of carrying out in the time that surveyed area is not presented at display part 160 at all, is because the master pattern that is difficult to store in application image storing step S110 just carries out this step.
Thereby surveyed area search step S122 is shifted detected object 105 or lens section 130 and the step of searching for the searching and detecting region, immediate region from the region that is presented at display part along the hand of spiral. According to the first embodiment of the present invention 100, if do not show surveyed area in display part 160, along counterclockwise detected object 105 or lens section 130 being moved and filmed image.
At this, a whole or part that repeatedly proceeds to surveyed area is presented at display part 160, in the time all showing, carries out angle of reflection regulating step S130, carries out centering step S121 in the time that a part shows.
In addition, be that above-mentioned coupling step S120 is carried out in two regions when above too at surveyed area. If multiple surveyed areas all can be included in detection range, mate step S120 until multiple surveyed area is all included in detection range. If multiple surveyed areas cannot all be included in detection range, mate respectively step S120 at each surveyed area.
As shown in Figure 2, the angle of reflection of described angle of reflection regulating step S130 accommodation reflex type light chopper portion 140 makes from the light reflection of surveyed area reflection to optical splitter 150. That is, if the angle of reflection of reflection type optical path transformation component 140 is adjusted to 100 °, light incides the first optical splitter 151, if angle of reflection is adjusted to 80 °, light incides the second optical splitter 152.
And as shown in Figure 3, surveyed area is two regions, is also identical with two optical splitters 150 while making light incident simultaneously. As mentioned above, the reflecting surface of reflection type optical path transformation component 140 comprises numerous minimum mirror, and each mirror can be controlled respectively. Utilize this mirror, if the angle of reflection of the first reflecting part 141 is adjusted to 100 °, the angle of reflection of the second reflecting part 142 is adjusted to 80 °, and the light reflecting from the first surveyed area 106 incides the first optical splitter 151, and the light reflecting from the second surveyed area 107 incides the second optical splitter 152. Certainly, when surveyed area is not only two, more than three time, also can increase optical splitter 150 by further, and make the part angle of reflection of reflection type optical path transformation component 140 there is the angle of reflection different from the angle of reflection of the first reflecting surface 141 and the second reflecting surface, thereby can carry out thickness detection simultaneously.
Described thickness detecting step S140 is the spectrum that is irradiated into the light that is mapped to optical splitter 150, and detects reflection of light degree and measure based on this step of the thickness of detected object 105. According to first embodiment of the present invention S100, thickness detecting step S140 comprises reflectance detecting step S141, reflectance comparison step S142 and thickness output step S143. But thickness detecting step S140 is not limited to above-mentioned steps.
Described reflectance detecting step S141 incides the spectrum of the light of optical splitter by analysis, utilize the light quantity data of each wavelength of light to calculate the reflectance of surveyed area.
Described reflectance comparison step S142 is by the reflectance and the reflectance obtaining with theoretical modeling of the surveyed area that obtains in reflectance detecting step S141 relatively, and when identical or while thering is no same model, search has the step of the model of similar reflectance.
Described thickness output step S143 is the step that output is equivalent to the value of the thickness of the model searching in reflectance comparison step S142.
The thickness detecting method S100 of the first embodiment of the present invention mates step S120 is included in detection range surveyed area, and the degree of accuracy detecting to improve thickness especially more can improve its effect in the time making it automation.
And, the angle of reflection of the adjustable whole minimum mirrors that are included in reflection type optical path transformation component 140 or only regulate the angle of reflection of part mirror, particularly, in the time only regulating the angle of reflection of part mirror, can detect the thickness of multiple surveyed areas simultaneously, therefore can shorten detection time.
Secondly, describe the thickness detection apparatus that utilizes digit optical technology and the method thereof of the second embodiment of the present invention in detail.
Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram that schematically represents the thickness detection apparatus that utilizes digit optical technology of the second embodiment of the present invention.
