- This evacuation pipe 50 ends in the treatment head a few centimeters behind the deflection device optical 42. Between the end of the pipe 50 and the optical deflection member 42 is provided a lower notch 52. The latter is intended collecting impurities transported by the cleaning gas.
- a first pipe 54 for conveying the cleaning gas to the optical member 42 extends inside the evacuation pipe 50.

- the free section of the evacuation pipe 50 is greater than the total of the sections of the supply lines 54 and 56. Plus, specifically, the section offered for the passage of gas in the exhaust pipe 50 is greater than the section offered for the passage of the gas during its routing to the optical deflection member 42.

- the prism is shown on a larger scale in the figure 3. It is made of a high index material, for example LaSF9, of which the index n is equal to 1.82 for a wavelength of 1064 mm.
- the hinge pin 44 passes through the prism in the vicinity of the hypotenuse near one of the peaks.
- the hinge axis, noted 44 ' is provided near the right angle and passes outside the prism.
- the hypotenuse of the prism is covered with a coating with high reflection coefficient (Rmax), for example a dielectric commercially available from suppliers optics for laser application.
- Rmax high reflection coefficient
- the other two faces of the prism are covered with a coating anti-reflective to improve the efficiency of the transmission.
- the incident beam enters in the prism by an entry face noted 60 and emerges from the prism by a exit face 62 after a reflection on the hypotenuse of the prism, noted 64.
- the prism has the hypotenuse arranged parallel to the incident laser beam, noted I, so that the laser beam does not undergo any deviation when passing through the prism and comes out parallel to the beam incident.
- Figures 4A to 4C illustrate the deflection of the laser beam in various plane directions when tilting the prism around the axis hinge 44.
- the incident beam, noted I comes out in the form of a parallel beam noted S, when the hypotenuse of the prism is parallel to the incident beam I.
- the prism is inclined by 45 °, in the direction of the arrow F4, relative to its position in FIG. 4A, so that the laser beam is deflected after reflection on the hypotenuse by an angle of 90 °.
- the laser beam is deflected by an angle greater than 90 °.
- the beams I and S then define an acute angle less than 90 °.
- the continuous angular offset of the prism allows to ensure a continuous deflection of the outgoing laser beam and thus a scanning of the plane perpendicular to the exit face of the prism using the deflected laser beam.
- the treatment head 38 is introduced inside the latter.
- the cane 34 is partially introduced through the neck of the next bottle the X-X axis of it.
- the neck of the bottle is provided with a member sealing 70 pierced with an opening 72 for the passage of the optical rod 34.
- the gas cylinder essentially comprises three successive parts consisting of a bottom F, a wall lateral cylindrical L and a neck C extended by the externally threaded neck from the bottle.
- the prism For the treatment of the bottom F of the bottle, the prism is initially arranged in its position of FIG. 4A, that is to say with the parallel hypotenuse incident laser beam. The prism is then in the noted position P1 of Figure 5. In this initial position, the laser beam ensures the treatment of the center of the bottom F.
- the prism is gradually angularly moved, so that the end of the beam deviated describes a spiral on the bottom F.
- the prism is tilted slowly enough to ensure full scanning of the bottom F.
- the prism For the treatment of the side wall L of the bottle, the prism is disposed, tilted 45 °, in its position of Figure 4B. Therefore, the beam deflected defines an angle of 90 ° with the incident beam.
- the bottle being rotated, and the treatment head being in its position intermediate P2, the bottle is moved in translation at constant speed along its X-X axis.
- the deflected laser beam thus performs a scanning of the side wall L following a helix with constant pitch.
- the speed of movement in translation of the bottle is chosen from so that the pitch of the propeller is less than the width of the deflected laser beam.
- the treatment head is placed in the position P3 in the zone of connection of the neck C to the side wall L.
- the displacement in translation of the bottle is stopped and only the rotation of the bottle is maintained.
- the prism is gradually tilted from an angle greater than 45 °, until the beam deviated reaches the neck of the bottle.
- the laser beam then describes on the neck C a propeller of variable diameter.
- the processing is carried out so as to obtain a recovery rate laser impacts of up to 10.
- the treatment performed on the entire internal surface consists of spraying the layer of undesirable material by a first passage of the beam laser.
- the power laser delivering short laser pulses (a few nanoseconds to a few tens of nanoseconds), with a power high peak (a few megawatts to a few tens of megawatts) promotes effective treatment. Indeed, the oxide layer undergoes a energy shock and is sprayed without thoughtlessly heating up the surface since the average power does not exceed a few watts. A mechanical effect in this case replaces a thermal vaporization effect.
- a smoothing of the surface is obtained by a second pass, in the same conditions of the laser beam having the same characteristics.
- the impurities present on the surface having been removed, this second scan by the laser beam produces a thermal effect leading to a reflow of the surface and therefore a smoothing thereof.
- This smoothing is carried out up to decrease in roughness to a submicrometric scale.
- inert gas is continuously routed through lines 54 and 56 to the optical deflection member 42.
- the inert gas emanating from the conduits 54 and 56 provides cooling and protection of the faces of the prism.
- the inert gas blown into the bottle is collected by the pipe outlet 50.
- the inert gas thus sucked carries residue with it metal and impurities unhooked from the wall during treatment with laser beam.
- residues and impurities are dust generated by spraying the oxide layer and contaminants from the surface by example from lubricants from the manufacture of the bottle. Their evacuation avoids the destruction of the optical surfaces by breakdown of the dust in the presence of the high electric field density of the beam laser.
- the vacuum of -100 mb caused by the vacuum pump ensures reliable waste disposal.
- the large relative section of the pipe 50 guarantees satisfactory evacuation.
- FIGS. 6A to 6C an alternative embodiment is shown of the optical deflection member 42. It comprises a prism 80 each of which of the faces is covered with an anti-reflective coating. A mirror 82 is arranged along the hypotenuse of the prism. The single reflective face 84 of the mirror is applied along the hypotenuse towards the inside of the prism. The mirror is made in a BK7 type glass and the reflective coating is a flux resistant dielectric used.
- the laser beam undergoes, through the prism, a deviation along an optical path similar to that of FIGS. 4A and 4B.
- the tilt angle of the prism is greater than the limit angle shown in FIG. 6C, the laser beam penetrating through the entry face of the prism leaves the prism through the hypotenuse, is reflected on the mirror and enters again in the prism through the hypotenuse, before coming out through the face of exit.
- the beam undergoes a deviation of a greater angle at 90 ° allowing the treatment of the neck of the bottle.
- FIGS. 7A to 7D another variant of the reflection organ 42.
- This comprises a prism 90 on the hypotenuse which is arranged a mirror 92.
- the reflecting face 94 of the mirror is opposite the prism 90.
- the prism is tilted in the opposite direction, i.e. according to the direction of arrow F7 in FIGS. 7C and 7D at an angle greater than 45 °, so that the laser beam is deflected not by the prism but by the face reflective 94 of the mirror on which the incident ray is reflected.
- FIGS. 8A to 8D show the same constituents as the member for optical deviation of FIGS. 7A to 7D.
- a thin blade for example made of fused silica (BK7) is applied to the reflecting face 94 of the mirror in order to ensure its protection. Such protection can be extended to all faces of the optical organ.
- the deflection member optic comprises a simple mirror articulated around the axis 44.
- a diaphragm of square section is arranged between the laser and the deflection member optics 42. It can be seen that the square section of the laser beam facilitates gluing between successive turns of the propeller.
- a visual inspection of the surfaces treated according to the invention shows the effectiveness of the treatment. These surfaces are indeed free of rust and have a smooth appearance.
- FIGS. 9A and 9B show the surface states obtained for the internal surfaces of cylinders in the case of rusty steel not treated for FIG. 9A and in the case of a steel cleaned by a treatment according to the invention in the case of FIG. 9B.
- the length of each photo corresponds at 90 microns.
- FIG. 9A There is, in FIG. 9A, a very irregular surface whose area of the developed area is very important. On the contrary, in the case of the Figure 9B, the surface of the treated steel is more regular.
- the oxide layer has been completely sprayed and reveals a completely smoothed surface.
- Measures roughness performed with a Dektak 3030ST device) made on samples taken from the cylindrical body of treated bottles showed a 2-fold improvement regardless of the type of materials used for the bottle (steel or aluminum).
- the treatment according to the invention smoothes the surface and eliminates defects of surface at a scale less than a micrometer. This improvement in the surface condition on a submicrometric scale could not be demonstrated because of the low resolution of the roughness meters currently available.
- an untreated surface and a surface that has been treated according to the invention were subjected to the attack of nitric acid.
- the processed samples are attacked on a few privileged sites while in the case of untreated samples, the attack is more homogeneous on the whole surface.
- the corrosion kinetics were clearly slowed down in the case of the treated surface.
- the surface treatment according to the invention has properties cleaning, smoothing and passivation of surfaces.
- the number of residual particles is less than 10 particles of greater diameter at 0.2 micron in a volume of 27 liters.
- Such a treatment is particularly suitable for bottles intended transport and storage of ultrapure gases, calibration mixtures, or special gases for the semiconductor industry.
- the treatment method described here implementing two phases of successive treatments, a first producing a spray under the action of a non-thermal shock, followed by a second producing an effect thermal conductive surface reflow can be implemented by all appropriate means and in particular for means other than an organ optical deflection of a laser beam.
