    摘要: In an instrument for optically analyzing particulate samples such as grain samples, the sample is introduced into a chute which is received in a vibrating apparatus to vibrate the grain in the chute and compact it. The chute is then dropped to a carriage which transports the chute and the grain through a beam of narrow band infrared light. A photocell is positioned to detect the amount of light passing through the grain sample.

    摘要: Gas analysis, intended primarily for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of sulfur, is performed utilizing flame photometry by burning a sample of the gas to be analyzed in a hydrogen rich flame in which combustion is supported by an excess of oxygen. A second hydrogen rich flame is used to reduce any sulfur present. A third flame is used to establish a thermal gradient which is particularly suited for the observation of the wavelengths emitted by sulfur. The actual detection of light emissions is accomplished using an appropriate filter and a photomultiplier tube. The detector of the present invention utilizes platinum flame holders in the first two flames and a platinum filament to induce the third flame and establish the aforementioned thermal gradient. A fourth platinum flame holder, preferably in the form of a mesh, is used to prevent flickering of the burning effluent gases which leave the detector, thereby reducing the noise level.

    摘要: A calibration system is provided for spectrophotometers of the type in which two or more wave lengths of light are caused to be transmitted through a sample cell. The calibration system may be used to calibrate spectrophotometers in which the beams are sequentially transmitted through the sample. In the practice of the invention, the sample is replaced with a number of accurately known optical attenuators which are introduced into the system in synchronism with the two light beams. The system provides calibration for both the scaling and linearization of the spectrophotometer, or conversely provides for the generation of tables and graphs which permit the operator to correct the photometer reading into an accurate representation.

    摘要: An automatic test instrument for gaging the percentage of various constituents in organic substances by comparing the reflective optical density of the subject at various wavelengths. Narrow band optical filters are connected together in the form of a rotatable paddle wheel positioned so that the filters can be individually swept through the incident light path between the specimen and wideband light source. As the filter wheel turns, the band of light passed by each filter is progressively shifted with the changing angle of the filter relative to the light path. The filter wheel configuration includes opaque vanes extending from the ends of the filters to periodically interrupt the passage of light to the specimen. Photocells are positioned to sense the level of light reflected from the specimen. The output of the photocells is sampled at pedetermined times relative to the rotation of the filter wheel to yield values indicative of reflected intensity at certain wavelengths. Using these values, an electronic circuit in one embodiment calculates three optical density difference values corresponding to moisture, protein and oil content of the specimen. The difference values are automatically inserted in three linear equations which are solved to obtain readings representing the true percentages of oil, water and protein contained in the specimen. Each time a new specimen is loaded for testing, the instrument is automatically calibrated against a standard sample, preferably Teflon (Trademark). The output of the photocells is amplified in a special circuit which subtracts the level of dark period current from the output when the photocells are illuminated.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for analyzing features in a field which is scanned to produce video signals according to the spectral characteristics of the features. The apparatus incorporates two or more filters for producing different spectral characteristic images of the field which are then synchronously scanned using a plurality of separate scanners which are synchronized but which need not be so accurately registered point by point as is normally the case with color scanners. The invention provides for the use of an anti-coincidence detector circuit to associate video signal information arising from scanning non-registered images of the features in the field so that the information in the separate channels can be associated and made available for simultaneous comparison so that a ratio can for example be obtained of the integrated optical density measurements of a feature in respect of different color components of the image of the feature.Another embodiment of the invention is described in which an additional parameter such as area can be measured and a feature classification performed taking both integrated optical density ratios and areas into account.A third embodiment of the invention is described in which additional threshhold comparators are incorporated so that different areas of detected features can be selected for measurement.

    摘要: A multi-wavelength time-sharing apparatus usable in various different configurations of optical measuring equipment to provide a plurality of time-shared optical channels and including appropriate circuitry. The apparatus employs a turbine-driven filter wheel having a shaft position-encoding arrangement consisting of a hollow shaft portion which is internally illuminated. The hollow shaft portion has two sets of spaced apertures cyclically communicating with respective angularly spaced pairs of externally fixedly mounted phototransistors which are sequentially illuminated as the shaft portion rotates and which produce timing pulses which drive Schmitt triggers, which, in a typical embodiment, in turn produce pulses compatible with a logic circuit employed to decode the phototransistor signals into triggers for driving a 4-channel switched gain equalizer, a dark current clamp, and detector gates. Appropriate selection of the signals enables the instrument to function as a fluorometer or a spectrophotometer.

    摘要: Light whose wavelength is to be measured is applied to a device utilizing a light processing means which serves to transmit light to a detector array in a manner determined by its wavelength. The coded output of the detector array can thus immediately indicate the wavelength of the incoming light. I prefer to utilize a wedge interference filter to produce a line of light extending across the width of the filter at a position along its length, which position is a function of the wavelength. The position of the line of light is encoded by a binary code mask to digitally indicate the light wavelength. Indicator lamps are activated in accordance with the digital indication and are rendered responsive to the light from the code mask in response to a high sensitivity detector. The system broadly includes apparatus for measuring a light signal in which a plurality of signal transmission paths whose transfer functions are different functions of light wavelength effect transmission of the light signal to a unique combination of the output channels responsive to a specific input wavelength.
