Abstract: A technique is provided for detecting the surface profile of a seat pocket of a gate valve. An inspection tool is used to detect data at a plurality of points around the bore of the valve. The inspection tool has a sensor that is moveable between a retracted position and an extended position. The inspection tool is disposed within a valve body cavity with the sensor in the retracted position. The sensor of the inspection tool is then extended outward so that it is located within the portion of the bore of the valve having the surface profile to be detected. The sensor is rotated so that the sensor may obtain surface profile data at a plurality of points around the seat pocket of the valve body. The sensor of the inspection tool is connected to a processor-based device, such as a computer. The processor-based device processes the data from the sensor and provides it to a user in a form that is recognizable to the user.

Abstract: When detecting a tolerance of a shape of a measured object having a complicated shape that makes it difficult to perform a continued measurement, a plurality of partial measurement data that are set are retrieved. Next, a reference position is set from first partial measurement data. Then, each of the partial measurement data is combined into one data using the reference position. Further, the tolerance is calculated using the combined data.

Abstract: A micro-cavity measuring equipment based on double optical fiber coupling includes a sight and transmitter, a controller, and a length measuring device. The equipment detects small changes in the position of an object with respect to a probe from a moment when the sight and transmitter starts working to another moment when the sight and transmitter stops working. The controller has a program to automatically control the whole measuring process. The measuring equipment is characterized in that the sight and transmitter consists of a laser unit, a data collecting and processing unit, and a double optical fiber coupling unit with its ends of incident and effluent optical fibers fixed on a coupler. A micro-cavity measuring method based on double optical fiber coupling consists of the following steps: inserting the probe into the micro-cavity and moving it in the measuring direction; sending signals to the length measuring device by the sight and transmitter to cause the length measuring device to record the corresponding position of the probe when the probe is contact with the sides of the micro-cavity; and then calculating the dimensions of the micro-cavity.
