  • Patent number: 12105005
    Abstract: An apparatus for evaluating a dried crystal error in a CO2 drying experiment comprises a heating jacket, a visual container, a weighing device, a transparent cover, a control apparatus, a vacuum pump, a damping table and a heating apparatus, and can accurately dry and weigh a rock sample subjected to a carbon dioxide drying effect experiment in the visual container, so that the crystal error caused by evaporation of a solution in the rock sample in the process is calculated. This apparatus provided by the present invention has high precision and simple operation, can well evaluate the crystal error caused by the saline solution retaining in the rock sample when the rock sample is directly dried in the carbon dioxide drying effect experiment, and can correct the results of the carbon dioxide drying effect experiment compared with the prior art, thereby obtaining accurate experiment results.

  • Patent number: 11953313
    Abstract: Provided is a three-dimensional measurement device, including an illumination system (I) and an imaging system (II). The illumination system includes, along an illumination light path, a light source (8), a light beam shaping apparatus (8), a pattern modulation apparatus (6), and a projection lens (2). The pattern modulation apparatus is configured to form a coded pattern. The light beam shaping apparatus is configured to shape light emitted by the light source into near-parallel light. The projection lens is configured to project the coded pattern onto a target object. The imaging system includes an imaging lens (3), a first beam-splitting system (12, 13), and an image sensor group including N image sensors (9, 10, 11). The first beam-splitting system is configured to transmit the coded pattern received by the imaging lens and projected onto the target object to the N image sensors of the image sensor group.
