| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention concerns a method of measuring the alignment status of a shaft line (16) in rotating machinery and an apparatus for the implementation of said method. Departures from alignment are measured at convenient points along the shaft line (16) by the displacement of an optically fanned laser beam (4) impinging upon sensor units (10,11). At the start of a measurement session, a zero reference point is determined for the beam (4) and the measurement values of the sensor units (10,11) are compared against this reference value during the measurement session. Relative displacement is obtained as the difference between the initial value and the value during the measurement. The apparatus and method are also applicable to the measurement of displacements in pipelines, long shafts and other similar systems.</p> |
