  • Publication number: 20240328964
    Abstract: To provide an X-ray inspection apparatus capable of obtaining a clear transmission image with less noise without reducing a conveyance speed of an inspection object. There is provided an X-ray inspection apparatus in which an X-ray generator and an X-ray detector are disposed to face each other with a conveyance path interposed between the X-ray generator and the X-ray detector, conveyance path through which inspection objects that are sequentially conveyed pass. The X-ray generator and the X-ray detector are configured to move back and forth in a conveyance direction of the inspection object and an opposite direction thereof. The X-ray detector captures an image of the inspection object while the X-ray generator and the X-ray detector moves in the conveyance direction from an image capturing start position to an image capturing end position at a speed equal to the conveyance speed of the inspection object.

  • Publication number: 20240328967
    Abstract: To provide an X-ray inspection apparatus capable of obtaining a clear transmission image with less noise without reducing a conveyance speed of an inspection object. There is provided an X-ray inspection apparatus in which an X-ray generator and an X-ray detector are disposed to face each other with a conveyance path interposed between the X-ray generator and the X-ray detector, conveyance path through which inspection objects that are sequentially conveyed pass. The X-ray generator is configured to rotate within a range of a predetermined angle, and the X-ray detector is configured to move back and forth in a conveyance direction of the inspection object and an opposite direction, in conjunction with the rotation of the X-ray generator. A capturing axis from the X-ray generator to the X-ray detector follows the inspection object moving forth in the conveyance direction during at least capturing an image of the inspection object.

  • Patent number: 6862098
    Abstract: Apparatus for measuring displacement that measures the displacement (the irregularities) of the surface of a measuring object precisely and at high speed is provided. The apparatus for measuring displacement scans light radiated toward the surface of the measuring object and measures the amount of displacement of the surface of the measuring object without contact based upon the position of an image formation point formed on the light receiving plane of a light receiving element. Light receiving means is provided with a lens array composed of plural condenser lenses which converges measuring beams and an imaging lens for forming an image formation point on the light receiving plane by converged measuring beams. Reflected light from an irradiation point is converged by the lens array. The converged reflected light is imaged on the light receiving plane by the imaging lens.
