INSPECTION OF THE INTERIOR OF AN ENCLOSURE

摘要

An assembly of light path deflectors is arranged so that radiation is transmitted along a folded optical path to an observation or measuring instrument (e.g. a pyrometer) from a point on a surface in an enclosure such as a blast furnace. The point is scanned along a scanning path (preferably spiral) which is uniformly distributed about the intersection of the surface with the sighting axis of the instrument, by simultaneously rotating the assembly and rotating at least one of the deflectors.
