Definitions
- the invention relates to a device referred to in the preamble of claim 1 for imaging the inner surface of a preferably cylindrical cavity in a workpiece.
- a device is known from DE 198 06 261 B4.
- the optics have the shape of an endoscope, which is moved linearly, whereby individual images are available as primary images. These are captured by a digital camera and first stored in digital form and then converted to a rectangular image by a polar coordinate transformation, in which the primary images are combined to form an overall image of the interior surface of the cavity.
- the processing and transformation of the primary images is based on their entire information content, with the result that the time for processing the signals is relatively large.
- the purpose of imaging an inner surface of a cylindrical cavity in a workpiece is to inspect the surface for defects and faulty ones
- Eliminate components This is particularly important in the automotive industry, where functionally relevant holes are mass-produced, for example in brake cylinders, calipers, connecting rods, pistons, engine Cylinders, cylinder liners or bearing bushes.
- Such a test has hitherto been carried out by visual inspection and, of course, with the limitations of visual inspection.
- the aim is to perform a piece-by-piece check while automating the
- the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a device referred to in the preamble of claim 1, in which the time for the test is so low that a piece-by-piece examination, in particular an automatic test done can.
- the problem underlying the invention is achieved by the teaching set forth in claim 1.
- the basic idea of the invention is that the digital image recorder, which receives the all-around image taken by the optics, produces only output signals corresponding to an annular band on the inner surface of the cavity, such that the output signal contains only information about this annular band. This results in a considerable reduction of the information content. These reduced output signals then form the image content of the lines of a Cartesian overall image, which is generated as a result. The gradual advance of the optics each new lines are strung together, so that the overall picture is created.
- the invention takes advantage of the fact that there are available high-speed digital imagers capable of capturing 1,000 frames per second and producing corresponding image signals.
- the digital image recorder has a matrix-shaped pixel arrangement as well as a digital read-out window which is programmed so that only Output signals corresponding to the annular band are generated on the inner surface of the cavity. Since in this embodiment an image sensor with matrix-shaped pixel arrangement can be used, in this way it is possible to realize the basic idea of the invention with a relatively simple and inexpensive standard hardware.
- the image sensor has a ring sensor, in which the pixels are arranged on an annular surface.
- the ring sensor detected from the outset only the required area for the evaluation.
- Such ring sensors are available and have 2048 pixels, for example, on an annular surface with an outer diameter of 10 mm.
- any other image pickup arrangements can be used by means of which an annular band can be imaged on the inner surface of the cavity.
- a matrix sensor with random pixel access can be used, in which only those pixels are accessed to which the annular band is imaged. Since the remaining pixels are not evaluated, even in such an embodiment the information content is reduced the teaching of the invention.
- any other techniques can be used by means of which an annular zone can be scanned, for example by using a fixed image recorder and rotating the image via a prism arrangement.
- a micromirror array or a DLP digital light processor
- the annular band is always detected on the inner surface of the cavity and converted into a line of Cartesian overall picture.
- the axial feed of the optical system thus successively adds lines to the Cartesian image so that the overall cartesian image results after completion of the axial feed motion, which can be evaluated in a quick and simple manner.
- means which analyze the image content of the lines of the Cartesian image and pass the output signals only when an adjustable limit value is exceeded to the means for generating a Cartesian image.
- an adjustable limit value is exceeded to the means for generating a Cartesian image.
- only the surface defects are shown, whereby the surface defects which are to be displayed can be determined by setting the limit value.
- a lighting source for all-round lighting is fixedly arranged in the field of optics.
- the illumination is unnecessary over a remote from the optic light source whose light is passed, for example, through a light guide.
- the illumination source is an LED light source.
- FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of a device according to the invention together with a workpiece
- Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment of a device according to the invention
- Fig. 3 shows schematically the receiving surface of a
- FIG. 4 schematically shows the storage of a circle recorded by the image recorder
- FIG. 5 shows the formation of a Cartesian image
- FIG. 6 shows schematically the development of the interior surface of the hole.
- the device according to FIG. 1 has an all-round 360 ° optical system 2, for example a fisheye optical system, so that it images a cylindrical inner surface 4 of a bore 6 in a workpiece 8 on a digital image recorder 10 in this exemplary embodiment.
- the optic 2 is designed in the manner of an endoscopic optic, which is arranged on a holder 12 and is moved by an electromotive feed drive 14 so as to move the optic 2 in the axial direction through the bore 6.
- the illumination of the cylindrical inner surface 4 is effected by a light source 16, which in this exemplary embodiment is a light-emitting diode or a high-power laser diode which emits light continuously or in a pulsed manner.
- the output signal of the image recorder 10 passes via a line 18 into an evaluation computer 20, the function of which will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 3 to 6.
- Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment of a device according to the invention, which is suitable for use in larger holes compared to the embodiment of FIG.
- the imager 10 is in the
- a ring light which may be formed for example by an LED array.
- FIG. 3 initially shows the receiving surface of the image recorder 10, in which an evaluation window is programmed such that a ring window 22 is arranged between an outer window ren circular ring 24 and an inner circular ring 26 is open, so that only from the area of this ring window 22 image signals are transmitted from the image sensor 10.
- Fig. 4 illustrates how the evaluation computer 20 forms over the circumference of the cylindrical inner surface 4 of 0 ° to 360 ° line strip 28, which are stored sequentially in dependence on the provided by the feed drive 14 axial position of the lens 2 in the drawing in the vertical direction , so that within a Cartesian image surface 30 shown in FIG. 5 with corner points 32, 34, 36 and 38 image signals are generated which serve to represent a development 40, as shown schematically in FIG.
- annular bands are imaged on the inner surface 4 of the bore 6 and converted into lines of a Cartesian image in the manner described above.
- an overall Cartesian image is created which represents the entire surface of the bore 6 to be examined.
- the axial feed of the optics 2 can be carried out stepwise, for example, wherein the axial step size can be chosen in particular so that the respectively recorded annular bands on the inner surface of the Bore 6 in the axial direction seamlessly and without overlapping connect to each other.
- the feed drive 14 and the evaluation computer 20 are in data transmission connection, as indicated in Fig. 1 by the reference numeral 42.
- a ring sensor in which the pixels are arranged on an annular surface can also be used according to the invention.
- Such an embodiment has the advantage that only output signals corresponding to a respective annular band are recorded on the inner surface 4 of the cavity, so that a selection of the recorded output signals, for example via a programmed readout window, is not required.
