LASER CENTERING MOUNT FOR X-RAY RADIATOR Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering; radiation method of inspection of materials and items.

SUBSTANCE: centering mount has housing inside which the laser is disposed as well as first reflector mounted onto axis of laser in front of exit window of X-ray radiator is the point where axis of laser crosses axis of X-ray beam, second reflector mounted onto axis of laser outside the projection of exit window of X-ray reflector for rotation relatively axis being perpendicular to plane formed by axes of laser beam and X-ray. Device also has aids for indicating focal length made in form of pointer provided with scale fixed onto housing of centering mount. Flat collimated laser beam forming system is mounted in front of laser. Laser beam propagates along plane being parallel to vertical plane crossing longitudinal axis of X-ray radiator. The axis is at the same time perpendicular to vertical plane crossing axis of X-ray beam. The second reflector is mounted at the exit of system at laser axis. Beam splitter is mounted between first and second reflectors. In front of the beam splitter there is the second semiconductor laser which is mounted onto axis being perpendicular to axis of laser to cross its point of crossing with beam splitter.

EFFECT: improved precision of measurements; simplified application.
