    摘要: An inspection device which is compatible with in-line inspection of containers and reliably determines the presence or not of a defect of a container, has a lighting system arranged above an installation zone and being capable of providing an incident light beam, an image sensor connected to an image-analysis unit, and an optical system with a first primary reflection surface arranged above the installation zone and interposed between the installation zone and the sensor for forming on the sensor an image of a container ring surface to be inspected. Also included is a second primary reflection surface in the upstream field of vision of the sensor to reflect light beams, directly or indirectly in the direction of the sensor. The first and second primary reflection surfaces determine first and second portions of a downstream field of vision, which overlap in the inspection zone.

    摘要: The invention provides a method and a system of checking a procedure for the optical inspection of glass containers (12), characterized by a procedure for the optical recognition of a control mark (42) of a control container having optical properties of transformation spectral such that: the transformation of the spectral intensity distribution between the incident (LRi) and return (LRr) recognition lights, by the mark (42), is different from that caused by interaction with a marking portion free of any mark (46); the transformation of the spectral intensity distribution between the incident (LIi) and return (LIr) inspection lights, by the mark, is not different, inside at least one useful portion of the inspection spectral band (BSI), from that caused by interaction with a marking portion free of any mark (46).

    摘要: In an optical method for determining surface defects and/or material shortage on the neck ring (3) of a container having an axis of symmetry (X) comprises illuminating the surface(s) of the neck ring (3) of the container with an incident light beam, a uniform ring of light (C) is obtained that converges towards a point of convergence located on the axis of symmetry (X) of the container with a variable diameter (D) and/or variable width (E). The diameter (D) of the convergent ring of light (C) at a given value in relation to a desired mean angle of incidence (α) to illuminate the surface of the neck ring (3) of the container and/or the width (E) of the convergent uniform ring of light (C) at a given value in relation to the width (L) of surface of the neck ring (3) of the container are selected.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for conveying in translation, in a transport zone, glass containers (2) held in a suspended position between two slide rails on which slides a counter-ring (7) arranged on each container which has a ring surface (8) defining the opening of the container, the method consisting of ensuring the movement in translation of the containers (2) by a bearing surface (18a) of at least one belt (18) driven in translation and exerting mechanical pressure on each ring surface (8) of the containers (2) to create a bond by adherence between each ring surface (8) of the containers and the bearing surface (18a) of the belt.

    摘要: A measurement method comprises acquiring, using image sensors (Cji) for each object during its displacement, at least three radiographic images of the region to be inspected. The images are obtained from at least three radiographic projections of the region to be inspected, the directions of projection (Dji) of which are different from each other. A computer system is provided with an a priori geometric model of the region to be inspected for the series of objects. Using the computer system and considering a constant attenuation coefficient and, from the a priori geometric model, at least three radiographic images of the region to be inspected, a digital geometric model of the region to be inspected is determined. For each object of the series, from the digital geometric model of the region to be inspected, at least one linear dimension measurement of the region to be inspected is determined.

    摘要: The invention provides a device for optically inspecting high temperature glass containers (2), the device comprising a lighting system (7) having a light-emitting surface that is adapted to emit both: a “flash” first light flux during a flash duration of less than 1 ms and at a wavelength longer than 650 nm; and also a “bottle-scanning” second light flux having wavelengths shorter than 650 nm and for a duration of not less than 2 s, the lighting system (7) being controlled: to emit the flash light flux so that the camera can take images of each container while back-lit by said flash light flux; and to emit the “bottle-scanning” light flux that is perceived by a human eye as being continuous.

    摘要: A method of inspecting containers (3) moving between a linear camera and a light source (7) presents continuous variation of light intensity with a periodic pattern (71) along at least one variation direction (D). According to the method, for each movement increment of the container, a sequence of N successive image lines of the container is acquired cyclically so that for each image line; the container (3) is illuminated by the light source (7); the image line of the container is acquired; and the periodic pattern (71) is shifted for the next line along the variation direction (D). For each increment of the container (3), at least one phase image line is calculated; and the phase image lines (LP(k)) are analyzed.
