Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the data of distance in the direction, which intersects with the axis of a tubular body, by arranging a light-beam generating means and an image forming optical system in the same tubular body. CONSTITUTION:A light-beam projecting means BP is composed of a light beam source S, a light-beam projecting lens LS and a light-beam projecting mirror MB. A light beam B is projected from the light-beam projecting means BP in the direction, which intersects with the light axis of an image sensing lens L. The light from a bright spot T(T') on the surface of an object body passes through the image sensing lens L. Thereafter, the light is reflected with mirrors M1 and M2. An image I(I') of the bright spot is formed on an image position detecting element P. Thus, the size of an optical probe device in the distance detecting direction can be made remarkably small. The optical probe, which can measure the configuration of the inner surface of a hole and the like can be implemented.

In recent years, in order to make it possible to measure the shape of objects that would otherwise be deformed or destroyed using contact-type probes, and to improve measurement speed, a light beam is projected onto the surface of the object.
- An attempt was made to develop a tip probe that generates a bright spot, observes it from a direction different from the light beam projection direction, and determines distance information in the light beam projection direction based on the principle of triangulation. It is being Figure 4 shows the basic configuration of this tip needle. A light beam B generated from a light beam source S is irradiated onto an object O to form a bright spot T. After the light from the bright spot T passes through the imaging lens L, it forms an image (2) of the bright spot on the image position detection element P. When the object ◯ moves to the position of the object 0°, the bright spot image I formed on the image position detection element P also moves to the position of the bright spot image 1'. Since the position of the bright spot image is proportional to the distance to the object, the bright spot image I (1') on the image position detection element P
It can be found from the position of

Since the external shape is large and the distance detection direction is the longitudinal direction of the distance detection device, it is not suitable for measuring the side surface of a recessed part or the shape of the inside of a hole. For this reason, the range of application of conventional tip probes has been limited to the measurement of relatively flat surface shapes.

(Examples) Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail based on Examples. 1st
An example of an optical stylus for side profile measurement based on the present invention is shown in FIG. A light beam B is projected in a direction intersecting the optical axis of the imaging lens L by a light beam projection means B composed of a light beam source S1, a light beam projection lens L8, and a light beam projection mirror MB, and shines on the surface of the object. A point T (T') is generated. After passing through the imaging lens L, the light from the bright spot T (T') is reflected back by the mirrors M1 and M2, and forms an image I (I') of the bright spot on the image position detection element P.

If mirror M1 is not placed, the image of the bright spot is 1v
If the image is formed at (Iv') and the image position detection element is disposed at this position, the width of the tip needle device in the distance detection direction becomes large, making it unsuitable for measuring the shape of the inner surface of the hole. As shown in Fig. 1, this failure occurs between the imaging lens L and the image position detection element P.
This problem is solved by arranging a mirror optical system (Ml, M2) so that the light passing through the imaging lens is projected onto the image position detection element. As a result, the size of the tip needle device in the distance detection direction can be significantly reduced.
It is possible to realize a tipping needle that can also measure the shape of the inner surface of a hole.

FIG. 2 shows one embodiment of the optical stylus for side surface shape measurement constructed based on the present invention, and shows a mirror M disposed between an image position detection element P and an imaging lens L. As a result, the size of the tip probe in the distance detection direction can be made smaller as in FIG. 1. In addition, the projection direction of the light beam B is selected to be perpendicular to the optical axis AL of the imaging lens L. Moreover, the image position detection element P is arranged so as to be perpendicular to the virtual optical axis of the imaging lens L, which is formed as a mirror image of the optical axis of the imaging lens L with respect to the mirror M1.

With this arrangement, the effects described in Figure 1,
In other words, in addition to making it possible to reduce the size of the tip needle in the distance detection direction, the relationship between the distance to the object surface and the detection position of the bright spot image on the image position detection element can be made linear (directly proportional). You can finish the meal. In a normal arrangement, the relationship between the detected position of the bright spot image on the image position detection element is not linear (direct proportional relationship), and the position of the bright spot image on the image position detection element with respect to a unit distance change. The change is not constant, but changes depending on the distance, and is not directly proportional. Depending on the distance
This often causes inconveniences because the detection resolution changes.

Figure 3 shows the configuration of the imaging lens L in addition to the configurations of Figures 1 and 2.
This is an example of the configuration of an optical stylus for side surface shape measurement based on the present invention, in which a mirror optical system Mo is also arranged between the object and the object. Mirror M. teeth,
The imaging lens is Mirror M. It acts so as to produce an effect equivalent to being located at a symmetrical position. Therefore, by adopting a configuration in which this mirror Mo is arranged, the size of the tip probe in the distance detection direction can be further reduced, and a tip probe suitable for measuring the side surface of a hole with a smaller diameter can be realized. Furthermore, by using a light guide made of glass fiber or the like to construct the light beam projection means, the light beam projection means can also be made more compact.
