A multi-function portable optoelectronic apparatus to determine the profile of a brake disk and the profile of the tread of a tyre comprising an optoelectronic assembly for emitting a laminar beam of light along an optical emission axis so as to project onto the brake disk or onto the tread a luminous line and acquire an image containing the projected luminous line, a tubular case which can be gripped by hand, which contains optoelectronic assembly and is designed to be arranged resting on the brake disk during determination of the profile of the brake disk and an angular adapter member designed to be coupled in a stable but easily removable manner to the case and shaped to be arranged resting on the tread during determination of the profile of the tread; an electronic system configured to receive the image and determine the profile of the brake disk or the profile of the tread on the basis of the luminous line contained in the image.
A multi-function system (1) to determine the profile of a brake disk (2) and the profile of the tread (3a) of a tyre (3);
A multi-function portable (1) optoelectronic apparatus (4) to determine the profile of a brake disk (2) and the profile of the tread (3a) of a tyre (3);
A method to determine the profile of a brake disk (2) and the profile of the tread (3a) of a tyre (3) by means of a hand-held optoelectronic apparatus (4) comprising an optoelectronic assembly (6) configured to emit a laminar beam of light (7) along an optical emission axis (OE) thus projecting onto the brake disk (2) and/or onto the tread (3a) a luminous line (8) and capturing an image containing said luminous line (8) projected, a tubular case (5) which can be gripped by hand and containing said optoelectronic assembly (6), and an adapter member (13) designed to be coupled in a stable but easily removable manner to said case (5);
