Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device and a method for examining a particularly inwardly curved reflective surface with a camera with lens and a lamp, wherein the camera is aligned on the inside of the curved surface and the lamp can be arranged such that radiated from the lamp Light from the inside of the curved surface is reflected into the camera.
  • the lamp radiates with a large beam angle on the curved surface and illuminates it evenly.
  • the curved surface ensures that the light is focused at each point of the curvature into the camera and reflected into the camera.
  • Surface structures are sufficiently contrasted by the uniform illumination due to the bundling of the light and can be easily evaluated with conventional image processing methods. Due to the high contrast achieved, a comparatively short exposure time can also be used for the images, so that even moving surfaces can be examined without having to interrupt the movement, for example, during production.
  • the lamp can consist of a luminous means and an optic which couples the light generated by the luminous means into the beam path of the objective.
  • the lamp is a particular punctiform light source.
  • a point-shaped light source is to be understood in the dimensions compared to the lens of the camera and the surface to be examined small bulbs, for example.
  • the punctiform or small light source emits light with a large emission angle on the inside of the curved surface, there bundled and reflected into the camera, without the need for elaborate optics.
  • the examined surface of the object is illuminated so homogeneously. Areas of the surface that do not reflect the light into the lens, such as structures such as cracks, dents or the like. Uneven surfaces, then appear much darker. This creates a sufficient, easily evaluable contrast, which makes it possible to recognize surface structures with a simple, conventional image analysis.
  • the lamp can be arranged centrally, in particular on the optical axis of the camera, in order to achieve as uniform as possible illumination of the curved surface relative to the camera image.
  • the lamp is not arranged in the focus of the camera.
  • the camera is set to recognize the surface texture in the focus (image sharpness) in such a way that the curved surface is sharply imaged in the camera.
  • the lamp in particular the punctiform light source, is then arranged outside the focus of the camera so that the camera looks around the light source.
  • the light source is thus not visible in the camera image and the object surface is imaged without interference contours.
  • a particular advantage of the invention especially if the punctiform light source is small compared to the diameter of the lens of the camera.
  • the lamp or punctiform light source in the camera image is particularly inconspicuous when the distance from the lamp to the curved surface during operation of the device is greater than the distance from the lamp to the lens of the camera.
  • the lamp can be brought down as close as possible to the lens, for example, even be fixed on the lens itself.
  • the distance of the light source to the camera for example. Is also adjustable during operation.
  • the curved surface has a shape similar to a concave mirror. In a hollow mirror-like or at least cylindrically shaped form, the focusing of the light can be achieved particularly well.
  • the device is therefore particularly suitable for the examination of metallic surfaces, for example of metal packaging such as cans, whose curved side wall or floor is to be examined.
  • the object is also achieved by methods for examining a particularly inwardly curved, reflective surface with a camera with objective, in which the curved surface is illuminated by a lamp and the light emitted by the lamp from the inside of the curved surface in the Camera is reflected.
  • the lamp designed in particular as a punctiform light source of small extent is arranged in the beam path of the objective.
  • the reflection of the curved surface of the object is utilized by the inventive method similar to a concave mirror for focusing the light beams. This achieves a uniform illumination of the curved surface and a high contrast of surface structures on the curved surface, because the surface structures scatter the reflected light away from the camera and appear dark on the otherwise bright surface.
  • the inventive method can be carried out in particular with the device described above.
  • the focus of the camera is not adjusted to the lamp, but to the curved surface to accurately recognize the surface structures.
  • the lamp can be moved, for example, during commissioning as long as the lens of the camera until the lamp in the camera image is no longer visible and / or until the lamp is fixed on the lens.
  • the method can be used particularly well for contrasting surface structures on curved metallic surfaces, in particular of metal packaging such as cans.
  • a particularly good illumination and contrasting can be achieved by bundling the existing light, without the light source is visible in the camera image when placed outside the focus of the camera.
  • the only Fig. 1 shows an inventive device 1 for examining an inwardly curved surface 5 of an object.
  • the object has a reflective surface and may, for example, consist of metal.
  • the device 1 can be used to inspect metal packaging such as cans.
  • the device is not limited to this use and can generally be used for examination of curved reflective surfaces.
  • the device 1 has a camera 2 with a lens 3, which is aligned and focused on the inwardly curved surface 5 to be examined.
  • a housing, not shown, of the device 1, designed as a point light source lamp 4 is arranged such that the light emitted from the light source 4 light 7 illuminates the inside of the curved surface 5 with a large beam angle and is reflected due to the curvature of the surface 5 bundled ,
  • the camera 2 is arranged relative to the light source 4 such that the light 8 reflected by the curved surface 5 falls through the lens 3 into the camera 2. As a result, the surface 5 appears bright.
  • the light source 4 is arranged in the beam path of the lens 3 of the camera 4 and lies with its center on the optical axis 6 of the camera 2 and the observer. jektivs 3.
  • the camera 2 looks around the light source 4, which thus does not appear as an interfering contour in the camera image. Therefore, the entire curved surface 5 can be reliably examined without disturbing the light source 3 arranged in the beam path of the lens 3.

  • the camera 2 and the light source 4 in the device 1, in particular along the optical axis 6 both relative to one another and together are adjusted relative to the curved surface 5 by suitable adjustment means.
  • the emitted light beams 7 of the light source 4 are reflected on the undisturbed surface 5 and detected as reflected light beams 8 from the camera 2, which make the entire surface 5 appear bright.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé pour analyser une surface courbe (5) au moyen d'une caméra (2) équipée d'un objectif (3) et d'une lampe (4). La caméra (2) peut être dirigée sur la partie intérieure de la surface courbe (5) et la lampe (4) peut être disposée, de manière à ce que l'éclairage (7) émis par la lampe (4) est réfléchi par la partie interne de la surface courbe (5) dans la caméra (2). L'objectif de l'invention est d'atteindre un contraste élevé dans un dispositif simple. A cet effet, la lampe (4) est disposée dans la trajectoire des rayons de l'objectif (3) de l'axe de la caméra et à l'extérieur du foyer de la caméra.
