Abstract
The invention relates to an inspection device (1) for checking bottles (2) or similar containers, comprising at least one first camera (9, 11, 12, 13), which checks a defined region of the bottle (2) or similar container. The at least one camera (9, 11, 12, 13) is arranged on an optic channel (6), on which at least one second camera (9, 11, 12, 13) is arranged, which checks the same defined region as at least the first camera (9,11,12,13). A third and fourth camera (9, 11, 12, 13) is arranged on the optical channel (6), which together check a further, defined region.
Claims15
An inspection device for checking containers, said inspection device comprising:
- at least one first camera that checks a defined region of the container, the at least one camera being located at an optical channel, at which is also located
- at least one second camera, said second camera inspecting the same defined region as the at least first camera, and,
- at least one third and fourth camera, which together inspect a further defined region of said container.
An apparatus for inspecting containers, said apparatus comprising:
- an optical channel;
- a first camera in optical communication with said optical channel, said first camera being configured to inspect a first defined region of said container;
- a second camera in optical communication with said optical channel, said second camera being configured to inspect said first defined region;
- a third camera in optical communication with said optical channel, said third camera being configured to inspect a second defined region of said container;
- and
- a fourth camera in optical communication with said optical channel, said fourth camera being configured to inspect said second defined region;
An apparatus for inspecting containers, said apparatus comprising:
- an optical channel;
- and
- in optical communication with said optical channel,
- means for generating two independent optical inspections of a first defined region of said container, and
- means for generating two independent optical inspections of a second defined region of said container.
