Definitions

  • Apparatus using a charge carrier beam to work material such as to Weld material, are known to the art.
  • the charge carrier beam is focussed on the material in an impinging beam of small cross sectional area so that the spot on which the beam impinges can be heated rapidly and to very high temperatures.
  • the heated material becomes incandescent while the surrounding area remains dark.
  • the contrast between the incandescent spot and the surrounding area is of the order of 1110,000.
  • the observation is usually performed by television camera or a supericonoscope.
  • the high contrast ratio precludes the necessary accuracy of observation since the electron receivers are able to resolve contrast ratios of about 1:30 only.
  • an object of this invention to provide apparatus for the simultaneous observation of an incandescent spot and the area surrounding the spot.
  • the temperature of the incandescent spot usually ranges upwards to about 3500 C. at the point of contact of the beam.
  • the principal emission of the glowing material at the spot to be welded therefore is in the red and infrared region of the spectrum, while the emission in the blue and violet region is slight.
  • the emission of the secondary light source for the illumination lies precisely in the latter region.
  • the filter in the path of the observation rays passes only shortwave light, i.e. it retains most of the radiation emitted by the glowing material, while the absorption of radiation from the secondary light source is relatively slight.
  • the contrast between the image of the incandescent spot and the cooler surrounding area can be established at a prescribed ratio.
  • a secondary light source emitting a highintensity line in the shortwave region of the spectrum is particularly desirable.
  • a mercury-vapor lamp may be used for illumination, with a blue filter placed in the observation path.
  • a line filter of an interference-layer filter, having a very narrow band-pass may be used instead of the blue filter.
  • the bandpass of this filter would, in this case, correspond to one of the intense lines of the mercury vapor lamp, for instance the line 365 mg. or the line 436 my
  • This new device can be used to particular advantage in carrier beam welding, using a television camera or a supericonoscope for observation of the work.
  • FIGURE is a cross sectional diagrammatic view.
  • an electron-beam generating system comprising a cathode 1, control electrode 2, and plate 3.
  • the electron beam 4 generated by this system passes through the diaphragm 5 and is focussed by means of the electromagnetic lens 6 on the workpieces 8, 9.
  • the workpieces are clamped on the movable stages 10, 111 in the evacuated chamber 7.
  • the movable stages permit displacement of the workpieces 8, 9 in two mutually perpendicular directions. In the case here represented, the two parts 8 and 9 are to be welded together.
  • the stages 10, 11 must be moved so that the electron beam 4 always falls on the seam between the parts 8 and 9.
  • the work chamber 7 and the beam emission chamber 13 are connected by way Olf a pump connection 12 to a vacuum pump, which maintains a high vacuum therein.
  • the work chamber 7 also has 2 other openings, which are hermetically sealed by the glass plates 14 and 15.
  • the mercury vapor lamp 16 serves to illuminate the workpieces 8, 9, and its light is focussed by the lens 17 on the area adjacent to the point of contact of the electron beam 4.
  • the light emitted by the part of the material under observation is tocussed by the mirrors 18 and 19 and the lenses 20 and 21 on the photocathode of the television camera 22.
  • the image may be focussed by vertical displacement of tube 23 and lens 20 mounted therein by the externally actuated gear wheel 24.
  • the rays between the lenses 20 and 21 are parallel.
  • the blue filter 25 is placed in the parallel rays between the lenses 20 and 21. This filter passes, almost completely, the blue portion of the light emitted by the mercury vapor lamp 16. Consequently the illumination of the area surrounding the point of contact of the electron beam 4 is attenuated only slightly. 0n the other hand, most of the light emitted by the incandescent material being heated by the impinging electron beam is stopped by the blue filter 25. In this way the contrast between the hot Workplace and its cold surroundings is reduced to a level no longer critical for television observation.
  • a line filter or interference-layer filter which has a very narrow band-pass, may be used instead of the blue filter 25.
  • Apparatus for simultaneous observation of an incandescent spot and its surroundings comprising a source of light of short wavelength, said wave length being shorter than the wave lengths of the principal emission from said incandescent spot, means to focus said light on the area under observation, said area including said incandescent spot, and means for observing said illuminated area, said observation means including a filter passing only light of said short wavelength, said filter being placed in the path of the observation rays.
  • said observation means includes means to produce an image of the illuminated area of the material on the photocathode of the television camera of said television system.
