When the image is input from the imaging camera (10) to the image processing device (14), the data of the input image is input to the frame memory, and the subsequent processing is performed based on the data. First, as shown in FIG. 3, a vertical projection histogram (22) and a horizontal projection histogram (23) are taken for an input image, and the coordinates (X 1 ) and (X 2 ) at both ends are obtained from the vertical projection histogram (22). center And at the same time, in the horizontal projection histogram (23),
From the coordinates (Y 1 ) (Y 2 ) of both ends to its center Find the image center Is calculated. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. A concentration cross-sectional view is drawn on a line passing through to obtain coordinates (X 3 ) and (X 4 ) inside the donut-shaped image (21). Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the center of the image obtained so far From the coordinates (X 1 ) (X 2 ) (X 3 ) (X 4 ), the image center To set the coordinates (X 1) (X 2) (X 3) donut-shaped inspection area through the (X 4) (24). When the inspection region (24) is set, and divided into ring the examination region (24) at a constant width (l), Figure 6 to show such a plurality of determination areas (L 1) ~
(Ln). The width (l) of each of the determination areas (L 1 ) to (Ln) is set to the same length as the diameter of the defect to be determined to be defective. For example, if the minimum defect diameter is 0.5 mm, the width (l) is also set to 0.5 mm. After the setting, the input image in the inspection area (24) is differentiated in the vertical and horizontal directions, and further subjected to a binarization process. The area values (S 1 ) to (Sn) of the defects in the binarized judgment regions (L 1 ) to (Ln) are the respective judgment regions (L 1 ) to (L
It is obtained by counting the number of dark pixels in n). On the other hand, two adjacent determination areas (L 1 and L 2 ), (L 2 and
L 3), setting the (L 3 and L 4) ... (Ln -1 and Ln) a reference judgment value within (y 1) (y 2) ... (ym) (m = n -1). The reference determination values (y 1 ) (y 2 )... (Ym) are the ratios of the number of pixels within the minimum defect diameter to be determined to be defective within a predetermined determination area, and are used for regression of the binarized image. Calculate based on the straight line. Then, as shown in FIG. 7, based on the area values (S 1 ) to (Sn) of the defect and the reference judgment values (y 1 ) to (ym), (S 1 + S 2 ), (y 1 ), (y 1 ) S 2 + S 3 ), (y 2 ), (S 3 +
S 4) and (y 3), ... (Sn perform -1 + Sm) and the comparison operation between (ym), the reference judgment value (y 1) ~ (ym) the larger area value is even one product To be defective.

1. An imaging camera supported so as to be able to move up and down, a small-diameter exploration scope vertically suspended below the imaging camera, a conical cone mirror installed concentrically below the scope, and the imaging An image processing device that performs image processing of an image captured by a camera, and the lower part of the scope and a cone mirror are inserted along the central axis into the cylindrical inner wall surface to image the peripheral surface of the cylindrical inner wall surface, In the image processing apparatus, a horizontal and vertical histograms are obtained for an input image from the imaging camera to determine the center of the image, and a donut-shaped inspection area is set based on the center, and the image is obtained. A plurality of equal-width concentric ring-shaped judgment areas centered on the center are set, and a judgment reference value of a defect area is set for each judgment area in correspondence with the shrinkage strain in the image circumferential direction. The defect area value obtained by the differentiation process and the binarization process is compared with the determination reference value, and the presence or absence of a defect is determined based on whether or not there is a defect area value larger than the determination reference value. A method for inspecting defects on the inner wall surface of a cylinder, characterized in that:
