Abstract: L'invention concerne un détecteur de position et de couleur (servant à détecter la position d'un point lumineux dans une répartition lumineuse pouvant inclure des composantes de lumière parasite, p. ex. provenant d'autres lasers, de l'éclairage ambiant, etc.), qui comprend deux détecteurs de position produisant des réponses distinctes (DRPSD). Le premier DRPSD sert à calculer une estimation brute de la position du point, et le deuxième DRPSD sert à calculer la position réelle du point sur la base d'informations provenant du premier DRPSD. La couleur est obtenue par la division de chaque pixel du premier DRPSD en cellules photoélectriques élémentaires, chacune de celles-ci étant couverte d'un filtre optique approprié. L'utilisation de deux DRPSD présentant des géométries de pixels différentes permet d'intégrer ceux-ci sur la même puce à l'aide d'un seul procédé ; et de réduire les coûts de production et d'alignement. De plus, des procédés de microélectronique analogique peuvent être utilisés dans le dépôt de filtres colorés, ainsi qu'un système optique simple pour la division et le façonnage du faisceau.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a metallurgical ladle and more particularly to the bottom of the ladle having an outlet through which the molten metal can drain. An object of the present invention is to increase the efficiency of a ladle draining operation, including reducing the amount of discarded metal, avoiding the premature flow of slag through the outlet, and reducing the contamination of slag in the molten metal effluent. The ladle bottom (2) comprises a plurality of terraces (31A) and flow channels(33A, 33B, 33C), ultimately directing the stream of molten metal to an outlet (5) of the ladle.  The terraces are described as capturing slag and the channels permit molten metal to flow preferentially through the outlet.
