Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a unitized and smaller structure by a method wherein a photo receiving disk is rotated on a moving body, and a laser beam from a fixed light source is hit upon a photo detector through a slit and lens to determine the position of the irradiation point in the form of polar coordinates. CONSTITUTION:A slit 2 is formed in a photo receiving disk 1 to extend from the center O near to the circumference thereof, the disk being arranged in a proper position of a tunnel excavating shield, for example. A laser beam L having passed a slit 2 is defracted by a lens 3 to be hit upon a photo detector 4 which is arranged on a center axis of the photo receiving disk 1. A distance (r) from the center O to an irradiation point P is determined based on a photo receiving time of the photo detector 4. Then, an angle of rotation (theta) of the photo receiving disk 1 from the base line OX at the time when the photo detector 4 has received the laser beam is detected using, e.g., such means as a rotary encoder 6 mounted over a rotary shaft 5. As a result, the position of the irradiation point P is determined in the form of polar coordinates (r, theta) with the center O as the origin of coordinates.

The present invention aims to provide a new technology that requires only a single small photodetector, the structural feature of which is that a receiving disk with radial slits is rotated on a moving body. At the same time, a laser beam is irradiated from a fixed light source to this, and the light that passes through the slit is refracted by a lens and applied to a photodetector placed on the central axis of the light-receiving disk. Depending on the distance from the center of the receiving disk to the irradiation point of the laser beam and the rotation angle of the receiving disk,
The point is to find the position of the irradiation point of the laser beam and detect the position of the moving body based on this.

In tunnel excavation using a shield, it is necessary to constantly check the position of the shield in order to proceed with the excavation in the specified direction.
Although the present invention can be used in this case, it goes without saying that the application of the present invention is not limited to this.

以下、本発明を図面に基いて具体的に説明する。Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically explained based on the drawings.

In the present invention, a light-receiving disc l is installed at an appropriate location on a moving object to be measured (e.g., a shield for tunnel installation), and while rotating it, a fixed light source (e.g., mounted on the ceiling of a tunnel) is mounted on the light-receiving disc l. A beam of light is emitted from a light source).

Since a slit 2 extending from the center O to near the periphery is formed in the light-receiving disk 1, when the slit 2 crosses the laser beam, light passes through the slit 2.

This light is refracted by a lens 3 provided behind the light-receiving disk 1, and hits a photodetector 4 arranged on the axis within the light-receiving disk 1.

The moving speed of a point on the light-receiving disk 1 is proportional to the distance from the center O, and the time it takes for the slit 2 to cross the beam is inversely proportional to the distance r from the center O to the irradiation point p-+. r can be found from the light reception time of 4.

Then, if the rotation angle θ of the light-receiving disk l from the base line OX at the time of light reception by the photodetector 4 is detected by means such as a rotary encoder 6 provided on the rotation shaft 5 of the light-receiving disk 1, the irradiation point can be detected. The position of P is determined by the extreme pressure +s(r, θ) with center bO as the origin of the coordinates.
