  • Patent number: 7602506
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for contactlessly and dynamically detecting the profile of a solid body. At least one light beam is generated by a laser device and expanded to form a linear light band projected onto the moving surface of the solid body. Light reflected from the surface of the solid body is focused in an imaging device whose optical axis is at a fixed triangulation angle to the direction of projection of the laser device and which is arranged at a fixed based distance from the laser device. The reflected light is detected by a planar light receiving element at a frequency that is high by comparison with a speed of movement (v) of the solid body after which the measured values of the profile are obtained as a function of the triangulation angle and the base distance.

  • Publication number: 20080212106
    Abstract: A method for the processing of a profile of a solid which has been detected, dynamically, for the purpose of determining wear which has occurred. The data from the evaluated profile are used as a control variable for controlling at least one machine for surface machining on the solid.

  • Publication number: 20080204765
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for contactless dynamic detection of the profile of a solid body, particularly a moving one, a laser beam, expanded to form a linear light band, from a laser device being projected onto a region of the surface of the solid body, and the light reflected therefrom being focused in an imaging device, whose optical axis is at a fixed triangulation angle to the projection direction of the laser device and that is arranged at a fixed base distance from the laser device, and is detected by means of a planar light receiving element, in particular at a frequency that is high by compariosn with a speed of movement of the solid body, whereupon signals output by the light receiving element are used in a data processing device as a function of the triangulation angle and the base distance to obtain the measured values of the profile by means of geometric relationships, the values being stored as a profilogram.
