  • Patent number: 11927569
    Abstract: Ultrasonic flaw detection uses a phased-array ultrasonic-flaw-detection probe. The flaw detection probe is placed such that the center of curvature of the flaw detection probe coincides with a reference center of curvature of a subject. The flaw detection probe is translated along a scan direction. The flaw detection probe emits an ultrasonic beam such that the position upon which the ultrasonic beam converges coincides with the center of curvature of the curve of the outline of the cross section of the subject at the scan position, receives the resulting reflected beam, and estimates the length of a flaw in the circumferential direction of the subject. In addition, the estimated length of the flaw is corrected using a correction coefficient corresponding to the distance between the center of curvature of the reference scan position and the center of curvature of the scan position in the thickness direction of the subject.

  • Patent number: 11346521
    Abstract: Provided is a light projection device and a light projection device for vehicle, and the light projection device includes: a light source having light emission portions disposed side by side in a predetermined direction; convex lenses, which focus light irradiated from the light emission portions; an optical scanner having a mirror portion that scans the light passing through the convex lenses, and a drive source swinging the mirror portion; and a projection lens disposed between the convex lenses and the mirror portion, or disposed in a position to which the light scanned from the mirror portion is projected. The convex lenses are disposed side by side in the predetermined direction at intervals so that the light transmitted through and focused by the convex lenses in a stationary state comes close.
