According to the embodiment shown in fig. 1 and 2, the detected object 100 is exemplarily shown to be substantially plate-shaped, but the detected object 100 may be in various shapes. The plane in which the detected object 100 is located can be regarded as a virtual reference plane. The first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G are arranged on the left side of the reference plane. The first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G emit the strip light to one side of the reference plane at predetermined first and second inclination angles with respect to a vertical plane perpendicular to the reference plane. The first and second tilt angles may be the same or different. Preferably, the first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G emit different color light. In the first embodiment, the first left light source 10R emits red light, and the second left light source 10G emits green light. Preferably, the stripe-shaped light rays of the first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G are parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction, that is, when the stripe-shaped light rays of the first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G are emitted to the reference plane, the stripe-shaped light ray patterns are parallel or coincident. The left image pickup device 10C is disposed between the first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G, and is preferably located at a central position therebetween. Preferably, the left image capturing device 10C captures an image directly to the left of the reference plane.
Preferably, the first left light source 10R, the second left light source 10G and the left image pickup device 10C are fixedly provided on the left bracket. A temperature compensation unit is provided on the left bracket to eliminate errors due to temperature when measuring the thickness.
Similarly, the first right side light source 20R and the second right side light source 20G are arranged on the right side of the reference plane. The first right light source 20R and the second right light source 20G emit the bar-shaped light rays to the other side of the reference plane at predetermined third and fourth inclination angles, respectively, with respect to the above-mentioned plane perpendicular to the reference plane, and the intersection of the bar-shaped light rays of the first right light source 20R and the second right light source 20G and the intersection of the bar-shaped light rays of the first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G are located in the same plane. Preferably, the predetermined inclination angles of the first and second right side light sources 20R and 20G are the same as the first and second left side light sources 10R and 10G. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and for example, the predetermined inclination angles of the first and second right side light sources 20R and 20G may be different from the first and second left side light sources 10R and 10G. Likewise, the third and fourth oblique angles may be the same or different, and the first and second right light sources 20R and 20G emit light rays of different colors. In the first embodiment, the first right light source 20R emits red light, and the second right light source 20G emits green light. Preferably, the bar-shaped light rays of the first right side light source 20R and the second right side light source 20G are parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction, and are also parallel to the bar-shaped light rays of the first left side light source 10R and the second left side light source 10G in the longitudinal direction. The right image pickup device 20C is disposed between the first right light source 20R and the second right light source 20G, and is preferably located at a central position therebetween. Preferably, right image capture device 20C also captures images directly to the right of the reference plane.
Preferably, the first right light source 20R, the second right light source 20G and the right image pickup device 20C are fixedly provided on the right bracket. At this time, the distance between the left image pickup device 10C and the right image pickup device 20C is relatively fixed. A temperature compensation unit is also provided on the right bracket to eliminate errors due to temperature when measuring the thickness.
Referring to fig. 1, the intersection of the bar-shaped light rays of the first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G coincides with the intersection of the bar-shaped light rays of the first right light source 20R and the second right light source 20G, that is, the first left light source 10R is disposed just opposite to the second right light source 20G, and the intersection of the second left light source 10G is disposed just opposite to the first right light source 20R. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the intersection points of the bar-shaped light rays of the first and second left light sources 10R and 10G may be spaced apart from the intersection points of the bar-shaped light rays of the first and second right light sources 20R and 20G by a distance corresponding to the general thickness of the detected object, as needed.
Referring to fig. 1, the first left light source 10R and the second left light source 10G emit strip-shaped light rays on the left surface S of the object 100 to be detectedaTwo bar patterns are formed on the substrate, and the distance between the two bar patterns is Da. The bar-shaped light beams emitted from the first right light source 20R and the second right light source 20G are on the right surface S of the detected object 100bTwo bar patterns are formed on the substrate, and the distance between the two bar patterns is Db. For example, fig. 3 schematically shows a stripe-shaped light pattern formed on the left side surface of the detected object. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and for example, the stripe light source in the present application may be a multi stripe light source.
Preferably, since the two light sources on the left and right sides emit different color stripe light in the present application, the two stripe patterns formed on the detected object are different in color. The distance D can be accurately obtained by recognizing patterns of different colors through the image processing unitaAnd Db. The positions of the different color patterns that appear when the two bar-shaped light patterns are formed before and after the intersection are different. For example, D shown in FIG. 6b2The indicated positions are light patterns formed after the intersection, which are clearly different from the light patterns formed before the intersection. The invention adopts light rays with different colors, and can easily identify the difference of the distances.
Fig. 4 is a flow chart of a thickness measurement method according to the present invention. Hereinafter, a process of performing thickness measurement on an object to be inspected using the thickness measuring apparatus of the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 4.
First, the object to be detected is moved into the detection area in the direction of the reference plane (S1). When an object is detected, the thickness measuring apparatus of the present invention starts detection (S2). At this time, the first left light source 10R and the second right light source 20G emit the strip light toward one side of the detected object 100 while the first right light source 20R and the second right light source 20G emit the strip light toward the other side of the detected object 100, and the left image pickup device 10C and the right image pickup device 20C synchronously capture the images of the left surface and the right surface of the detected object 100 (S3, S4). Preferably, the moving direction of the detected object 100 is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the strip light.
With the movement of the detected object, the left image pickup device 10C and the right image pickup device 20C capture images at predetermined time intervals, and transmit the acquired image data to the image processing unit (S5).
At the image processing unit, the distance D on the left image is obtained from the strip-shaped light patterns on the left and right imagesaAnd the distance D on the right imagebAnd matching the data of the left and right images according to time (S6).
Data D based on matched left and right imagesaAnd DbThe image processing unit may calculate the thickness of the detected object at the corresponding position (S7). In particular, the distance between the left and right image pickup devices 10C, 20C and the corresponding intersection of the bar light rays is specific, and the distance between the left image pickup device 10C and the right image pickup device 20C is specific. Thus, the distance D is obtained from the left imageaThe image processing unit can obtain the distance of the left surface of the detected object with respect to the left image pickup device 10C. Likewise, the distance D is obtained from the right imagebThe image processing unit can obtain the right side surface of the detected object relative toDistance of right image capture device 20C. By removing the distances of the left and right side surfaces of the detected object with respect to the left and right image capturing devices 10C and 20C from the distance between the left and right image capturing devices 10C and 20C, the thickness of the detected object at the predetermined position can be obtained.
When the detected object moves out of the detection area, the detection ends (S8).
Fig. 5 is an oblique perspective view of a thickness measuring apparatus according to a second embodiment of the present invention. For convenience, the same or equivalent components are denoted by the same reference numerals as those of the first embodiment in the second embodiment of the present invention, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.
The thickness measurement apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention may include a plurality of sets of thickness measurement sensors arranged in parallel. For example, two sets of thickness measurement sensors are included in fig. 5, i.e., a first set of thickness measurement sensors includes a first left light source 11R, a second left light source 11G, a left image capture device 11C, a first right light source 21R, a second right light source 21G, and a right image capture device 21C. The second set of thickness measurement sensors includes a first left light source 12R, a second left light source 12G, a left image capture device 12C, a first right light source 22R, a second right light source 22G, and a right image capture device 22C. However, the number of thickness measurement sensors may be more than two groups, as desired.
The first and second sets of thickness measurement sensors are configured similarly to the first embodiment in the arrangement and type of the thickness measurement sensors. Therefore, for the sake of simplicity, the specific configuration of the first and second sets of thickness measurement sensors will not be described in detail.
Unlike the first embodiment, since a plurality of sets of thickness measurement sensors are arranged in parallel, when a detection object of a large width is detected, thickness measurement of the entire detection object can be achieved using a narrow strip light source in a limited space. Therefore, the thickness measurement sensor of the present invention can be made more compact in structure.
Fig. 6 is a schematic view of a thickness measuring apparatus according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The thickness measuring apparatus according to the third embodiment of the present invention may include a plurality of sets of thickness measuring sensors arranged at an angle to each other. For example, two sets of thickness measurement sensors arranged perpendicular to each other are included in FIG. 6.
Referring to fig. 6, the object to be detected 100 has a vertically curved shape, i.e., a horizontal portion and a vertical portion. The first set of thickness measurement sensors includes a first left light source 13R, a second left light source 13G, a left image capture device 13C, a first right light source 23R, a second right light source 23G, and a right image capture device 23C. The second set of thickness measurement sensors includes a first upper light source 24R, a second upper light source 24G, an upper image capture device 24C, a first lower light source 23R, a second lower light source 23G, and a lower image capture device 23C. The first set of thickness measuring sensors is used to measure the thickness of the vertical portion of the inspected object 100, and the second set of thickness measuring sensors is used to measure the thickness of the horizontal portion of the inspected object 100.
However, the number and arrangement of the thickness measurement sensors may be different depending on the shape of the detected object. For example, the thickness measurement sensors may be arrayed in different directions so as to detect the thickness of the detected object with different accuracy in different directions.
Since the plurality of sets of thickness measurement sensors are arranged at an angle, the present invention can easily detect the thickness of a detected object having a plurality of planes.
Although the present invention has been described in connection with the above embodiments, it is apparent that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Certain features of the above-described embodiments of the invention can be recombined to form new embodiments. Accordingly, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.
