Apparatus for and method of inspecting sheet body

摘要

When a film is rewound, light is applied from light-emitting units to the film, and light that has passed through the film is detected by light-detecting units to detect a plurality of inclined defects in the film based on a change in the intensity of the light transmitted through the film. Slits oriented in the direction of the inclined defects are disposed in front of the light-emitting units and the light-detecting units. Detected signals outputted from the light-detecting units are transmitted to a processing device and processed thereby. The processing device processes the signals by approximating a maximum value array of extremal values of the signals in respective reference lengths of the film, with two functions in zones, and identifying a boundary between the zones as a position where a defect disappears.
