Abstract
An imaging device includes: a laser output unit configured to output a plurality of laser beams to be incident on a tool in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the tool; a driving mechanism configured to drive the laser output unit to perform scanning with the plurality of laser beams in the longitudinal direction or a short direction of the tool; and an imaging unit configured to image the tool or a projection image of the tool in a state in which an exposure time in a single imaging is set to correspond to a movement time taken by the driving mechanism to move the laser output unit a predetermined distance.
Claims7
An imaging device comprising:
- a laser output unit configured to output a plurality of laser beams to be incident on a tool in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the tool;
- a driving mechanism configured to drive the laser output unit to perform scanning with the plurality of laser beams in the longitudinal direction or a short direction of the tool;
- and
- an imaging unit configured to image the tool or a projection image of the tool in a state in which an exposure time in a single imaging is set to correspond to a movement time taken by the driving mechanism to move the laser output unit a predetermined distance.
An imaging device comprising:
- a laser output unit configured to output a plurality of laser beams to be incident on a tool in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the tool;
- a driving mechanism configured to drive the laser output unit to perform scanning with the plurality of laser beams in the longitudinal direction or a short direction of the tool;
- and
- an imaging unit configured to move the laser output unit a predetermined distance and perform a single imaging of the tool or a projection image of the tool,
- wherein a width of an image obtained by the single imaging performed by the imaging unit is larger than a width of laser beam irradiation in a moving direction of the laser output unit.
Tool storage equipment comprising:
- a tool storage for storing tools;
- a tool support for supporting a tool taken from the tool storage;
- a laser output unit configured to output a plurality of laser beams to be incident on the tool, supported by the tool support, in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the tool;
- a driving mechanism configured to drive the laser output unit to perform scanning with the plurality of laser beams in the longitudinal direction or a short direction of the tool;
- and
- an imaging unit configured to image the tool or a projection image of the tool in a state in which an exposure time in a single imaging is set to correspond to a movement time taken by the driving mechanism to move the laser output unit a predetermined distance.
A machine tool comprising:
- a tool support for supporting a tool;
- a laser output unit configured to output a plurality of laser beams to be incident on the tool, supported by the tool support, in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the tool;
- a driving mechanism configured to drive the laser output unit to perform scanning with the plurality of laser beams in the longitudinal direction or a short direction of the tool;
- and
- an imaging unit configured to image the tool or a projection image of the tool in a state in which an exposure time in a single imaging is set to correspond to a movement time taken by the driving mechanism to move the laser output unit a predetermined distance.
