Magnetic field measuring equipment

Abstract

A magnetic field measuring equipment capable of accurately and rapidly measuring a magnetic field produced in a three-dimensional space around a measured object (object to be measured) and visually displaying results of the measurement. The magnetic field measuring equipment includes a measuring instrument including a magnetic sensor arranged so as to be relatively movable in three-dimensional directions around a measured object, a computer including a data processing means for subjecting a magnetic field of the measured object to processing so as to permit the magnetic field to be visually displayed, on the basis of three-dimensional magnetic force data of the measured object measured by the measuring instrument, and a display acting as an output means for outputting results of processing by the data processing means. Such construction permits a magnetic field produced in a three-dimensional space around the measured object to be accurately and rapidly measured while eliminating problems of the prior art that it renders alignment of the measuring points difficult and it requires much time for the measurement.
