Patent EP-0544173-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LATHER DIETER DIPL-ING
IPC: G01F23/28
Filed: 1992-11-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for determining whether a liquid (F) is contained in a container (B). In this case, a signal (S1) is fed into an external surface (1a) of the wall (1) of the container (B). If liquid (F) is present at the opposite inner surface (1b) of the wall (1) energy is coupled out there from the signal (S1) into the liquid (F). The signal (S1) is measured, attenuated by the amount coupled out, as a reflected signal (S1') at a receiver (E1). It is provided that signals (S1) are fed in at intervals in time and that reflected signals (S1') are measured. A first threshold value characteristic (6) is determined which is an amount less than the respectively largest measured reflected signal (5). A second threshold value characteristic (8) is also determined, which is an amount above the respectively smallest measured reflected signal (7). If liquid (F) was present before, the absence of the liquid (F) is indicated if a measured, reflected signal (S1') is above the second threshold value characteristic (8). If no liquid (F) was present previously, liquid (F) is indicated if a measured, reflected signal (S1') is below the first threshold value characteristic (6). In all other cases, the previous display is confirmed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a Raman laser wherein hazardous radiation from a pump laser source 20 is focused by lens 25 via a cell 27 containing a Raman active medium before passing to a absorbing beam dump 30. Lasing action is maintained within the cell 27 by the action of mirrors 29 and 26 which are respectively totally and partially reflective to radiation generated at the Raman wavelength, and which are both transmissive to the pump beam. A Raman beam exits the cell via partially transmissive mirror 26 is refocused by lens 25 and passes through to the output of the device 31. This configuration provides a Raman laser where the "eyesafe" Raman beam is generated in a backwards direction relative to the pump beam, so that during normal operation, or in the event that the optics breakdown, or conversion does not take place within the cell, the output beam would not be contaminated by potentially harmful wavelengths at a hazardous level.

Date Nov. 26, 1992.The system effects an automatic observation of the dry line on wire of the Fourdrinier paper machine and the control actions based on it. In order to produce an image of the dry line range on wire this is illuminated by means of a large, diffusely illuminating surface (20) of even luminosity. The material on moving wire (10) is imaged by an optoelectric camera (40) on a detector whereby the pulp surface preceding the dry line and being specularly reflecting is found homogeneous and bright while the web surface following it and being diffusely reflecting is found homogeneous but matter and darker. The electric image signal delivered by the detector is conducted to a computer (50) in which the dry line is identified as the borderline of said surfaces of different brightness. Its deviations from target values are determined for both the average value and different values in cross direction and the corresponding actuators are adjusted in order to control the paper web on the basis of deviations observed for its different parts or for its whole breadth. Dry line and values of quantities and deviations characterizing it are also presented on a display terminal, whereby said controls can alternatively be effected by a human observer.
