摘要:
A band-ratio radiometer is disclosed which makes use of either a bifurcated or trifurcated fiber optic bundle, over two branches of which the sample radiation is transmitted in different wavelength regions. The third branch may be used to provide illumination of the target area, for aiming purposes, by injecting light at the near end of this branch. By this means, the remote ends of all three bundles may be focussed precisely upon the target area, with no parallax problem. The system avoids the use of conventional optical filters by making use of detectors which are identical in wavelength sensitivity and optical fibers which differ in wavelength transmittance.

The melting of solder in a reflow soldering operation is detected by examining the rate of change of the solder temperature or by detecting a change in a surface reflectance characteristic of the solder which occurs upon melting.

An apparatus for inspecting a device made up of a plurality of different infrared radiating elements includes an optical head which is moveable along X-Y coordinates above the fixed device to sequentially scan the infrared radiating elements. A laser beam source is operatively connected to the moveable head for injecting thermal energy into the infrared radiating elements and an infrared detector is provided for sensing the infrared radiation emanating from the elements. The infrared detector may be mounted directly on the moveable head or in a remote location wherein the detector would be connected to the moveable head by a flexible optical fiber. A second moveable head may be located on the opposite side of the device so that thermal energy from the laser source may be injected into opposite sides of the infrared radiating element.

An infrared temperature probe for high pressure use is in the form of a hollow bolt adapted to be threaded into a complementary threaded aperture in the wall of a pressure vessel with the end thereof disposed flush with the internal surface of the pressure vessel wall. An infrared transparent window is secured in the end of the hollow bolt with one surface thereof disposed flush with the end of the bolt. A bundle of optical fibers is secured within the opposite end of the hollow bolt and a glass rod is mounted within the hollow bolt in operative relation to the window and the optical fiber bundle for transmitting infrared radiation from the window to the optical fiber bundle. The interior of the hollow bolt may be supplied with a circulating cooling liquid or gas. An infrared temperature probe can also be used with a mold having an aperture for receiving an ejector pin wherein the hollow ejector pin is provided with an impact surface at one end and an infrared transparent window in the opposite end for receiving infrared radiation from a hot molded article within the mold when the ejector pin is located within the aperture in the mold. A bundle of optical fibers extends through the hollow ejector pin and is disposed in optical transmitting engagement with the window.
摘要:
A controller for a spot-welding machine compares the temperature evolution at a site at which a spot weld is being made to a standard thermal history stored in a digital read/write memory in controlling the welding current for the weld. Standard thermal histories can be generated and written into the memory as needed by an operator of the welding machine to take into account changes in operating conditions. The temperature evolution of the spot-welding operation is monitored by detecting radiant energy whose intensity provides a measure of a temperature of the weld. Phosphorescent radiation from a thermographic phosphor located in a welding tip of the welding machine and thermal infrared radiation are preferred for monitoring the temperature evolution of the spot-welding operation.
摘要:
A system for placing, soldering and inspecting component parts, such as soldered joints and electronic components, on a printed circuit board utilizes a transfer device for selecting and transferring specific electronic component parts to predetermined positions on a printed circuit board and holding each component part in the desired position by use of the transfer device during a reflow soldering operation to mechanically and electrically connect the component part to the printed circuit board. The reflow solderiung utilizes a laser beam for injecting thermal energy into each soldered joint to melt the soldered material. An infrared detector senses thermal radiation and/or reflected radiation from the heated solder material to discontinue the application of the laser beam to the solder material upon liquifaction of the solder material. The infrared detector also continues to sense the thermal radiation from the heated solder material during cool down to provide a signal which will be compared with a standard signal to determine the quality of the solder joint.
