Apparatus for optically measuring an object such as a coating on an organic or polymer base

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The apparatus has a beam splitter (4) and several wavelength specific detectors (14). The beam splitter has a housing (5) with a conical inner surface (6). A light inlet opening (8) is provided near the tip (7) of the cone so that the measuring light (9) can enter the beam splitter. A diffusor (10) is arranged in front of the opening. The detectors are arranged at the base (12) of the conical inner surface of the beam splitter housing. #CMT# : #/CMT# Independent claims also cover use of the apparatus. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Esp. for measuring a coating on an organic and/or polymer base. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# Allows greater signal strength. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of the apparatus. 1 : apparatus 2 : paper track 3 : coating 4 : beam splitter 5 : housing 6 : inner surface 7 : cone tip 8 : light entry opening 9 : measuring light 10 : diffusor 11 : interior 12 : base 13 : outlet opening 14 : detector 15 : electrical lead 16 : analyzer 17 : keyboard 18 : monitor 19 : light source.
