    摘要: Method and apparatus for measuring the weight per unit area and providing cross-sectional, longitudinal, and diagonal profiles of density or thickness of moving manufactured sheet products. The apparatus comprises a stationary radiation source, an array of detectors, and electronic means for processing the signals from the detectors to obtain a total cross-sectional, longitudinal, and diagonal profile of density or thickness of moving manufactured sheet products. The energy output of the radiation source remains constant during a measuring operation. The apparatus utilizes a line-up of individual radiation sources delivering constant radiation. Each individual radiation source generates an equal amount of radiation. The radiation transmitted from the individual radiation source is intercepted by a detector/electronic assembly after penetrating the sheet product. The detector/electronic assembly converts the intercepted radiation to electric signals. The electric signals from the detector/electronic assembly are transmitted by conductors to electronic interface unit, signal processor and numerical display units. The invention provides an apparatus comprising the radiation source, detector/electronic assembly, electronic interface and signal processor, digital computer and numerical display modules and a method of identifying the entire transverse profile of the moving sheet products.

    摘要: A profile measurement apparatus using radiation is disclosed which has three radiation sources and three arcuated multi-channel radiation detectors corresponding to the radiation sources. A rolled steel sheet or strip is conveyed between the radiation sources and the radiation detectors. The sector-shaped radiation beams respectively are radiated by the radiation sources to partially pass through the strip and to respectively incident on the corresponding radiation detectors, which produce profile signals corresponding to the intensities of the incident radiation beams. A microprocessor produces an image signal indicating the sectional shape of an irradiated linear area throughout the entire width of the strip in accordance with the profile signals and causes the display device to display the sectional shape. A mono-channel radiation detector is disposed near the multi-channel radiation detectors to constantly measure a partial thickness of the central portion of the strip.

    摘要: This invention provides apparatus for measuring the thickness profile of steel strip comprising a radiation source reciprocally movable in a stepwise fashion across the strip width on one side thereof and a single elongated detector on the other side of the strip aligned with the scanning source. This detector may be a fluorescent scintillator which is responsive to the incident radiation, the amount of which is in turn dependent on the degree of absorption by the strip. Means are provided for sensing the degree of excitation in the detector in synchronism with the scanning source whereby to provide an output representative of the thickness profile of the strip. The profile may conveniently be displayed in analogue fashion on a television screen. A conventional thickness gauge, e.g. of the X-ray type, may conveniently be used in conjunction with the profile gauge to compensate the output of the latter for any variations in the strip thickness along the length of the coil.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method of and an apparatus for measuring the thickness of an object, usually a metal strip, by using a radiation beam and digital techniques and, more generally, a method of linearization of an exponential function which can be advantageously implemented by digital techniques. First, a counter is preset to a count corresponding to a predetermined magnitude of a value to be linearized. Then, a sequence of pulses whose number is representative of the value to be linearized is generated. The pulses of this sequence are counted so as to generate a signal each time the number of pulses counted corresponds to a standard value unit. Each signal so generated is used to modify by a predetermined count the count of the preset counter whereby, at the end of the sequence, the contents of the preset counter is representative of the value to be linearized.An apparatus for implementing such a linearization method when applied to the output signal of a radiation detector providing a pulse rate representative of the thickness of an object through which the radiation of a gamma source is received, comprises a gate which receives the output signal of the radiation detector and is enabled during a preset time. The output pulses of the gate are applied simultaneously to a first counter, a divider and a second counter. The first counter provides a signal when its count reaches a value corresponding to the maximum thickness which is expected to be measured. The output signal of the first counter resets the second counter and presets a down counter to a count corresponding to the quotient of the maximum thickness by a standard thickness unit. The divider divides the number of pulses by a coefficient representative of a standard thickness unit and the output pulses of the divider are accumulated in an accumulator. The accumulated sum is compared in a comparator against the contents of the second counter and the output signal of the comparator is applied to the down counter and to the reset input of the second counter. When all the pulses have been counted, the down counter displays the thickness of the object.Other embodiments for compensating the dead-time of the radiation detector and the decay of the radiation source as well as for increasing the accuracy of the measurement are also described.

    摘要: In the new and improved radiation apparatus disclosed herein for inspecting tubular goods, a radiation detector is coaxially positioned within a tubular member being axially translated along a selected inspection axis for receiving radiation from a radiation emitter facing the detector and mounted in a body rotating around the exterior of the tubular member. One or more radiation-attenuating devices or shutters are cooperatively arranged in the rotating body for regulating the intensity of radiation imposed on the detector. Uniquely-arranged controls are provided for selectively positioning the shutters as tubular members that are to be inspected move along the inspection axis, with these controls being adapted for operation without interrupting the rotation of the body carrying the shutters.

    摘要: 956,727. Ionisation counters. PHILIPS ELECTRICAL INDUSTRIES Ltd. Nov. 23, 1960 [Nov. 26, 1959], No. 40303/60. Heading H1D. [Also in Division G1] The variation of beta radiation incident upon a proportional gas flow ionisation counter tube is used to measure the thickness of workpieces in a device comprising two such tubes, one for measuring and one as a reference, there being in each tube an electrode consisting of two or more wires, the two tubes being connected to a common voltage source and connected in parallel to a common gas supply, the gas flow resistances differing by less than 20%. Each tube comprises a nickel plated cylinder 24 in which is disposed a nickel coated mica window 25 11 , the ends of the cylinder being closed by glass calottes 25 on to which are deposited graphite guard rings 26. The central electrode 17 comprises four wires of e.g., molybdenum, symmetrically disposed around the longitudinal axis of the tube. Methane gas slightly above atmospheric pressure is admitted via a nozzle 15 and emerges via a second nozzle 16 to a capillary tube chosen to match the gas flow resistances of the tubes to within 20%. The workpieces are moved by a conveyer belt between a Strontium 90 source 18 to intercept the beta radiation emergent from a conical diaphragm 20 towards the measuring ionisation counter tube 3.
