Abstract:
The invention provides a method and a system of checking a procedure for the optical inspection of glass containers ( 12 ), characterized by a procedure for the optical recognition of a control mark ( 42 ) of a control container having optical properties of transformation spectral such that:          the transformation of the spectral intensity distribution between the incident (LRi) and return (LRr) recognition lights, by the mark ( 42 ), is different from that caused by interaction with a marking portion free of any mark ( 46 ); the transformation of the spectral intensity distribution between the incident (LIi) and return (LIr) inspection lights, by the mark, is not different, inside at least one useful portion of the inspection spectral band (BSI), from that caused by interaction with a marking portion free of any mark ( 46 ).

Claim (Index 18):
18 - A system of checking a facility for the optical inspection ( 16 a ,  16 b ) of glass containers, wherein the container inspection facility ( 16 a ,  16 b ) comprises:\n a source ( 24 a ,  24 b ) of incident inspection light (LIi) illuminating an inspection area ( 18 a ,  18 b ) of the facility and having an incident inspection spectrum; an optical collector ( 26 a ,  26 b ) collecting a return inspection light (LIr) resulting from the interaction of the incident inspection light (LIi) with an inspected portion of a container ( 12 ) placed in the inspection area, the return inspection light having a return inspection spectrum; an inspection photoelectric sensor ( 28 a ,  28 b ) converting, in an inspection spectral band (BSI), the collected return inspection light (LIr) into a linear or two-dimensional multipoint inspection digital image (II); a computer unit ( 30 ) for analyzing the inspection digital image configured for determining an inspection result from the inspected container, wherein the system of checking comprises: at least one control container ( 12 t ) comprising a control mark ( 42 ) affixed to a marking portion ( 40 ) of the control container ( 12 t ), the container being suitable for being positioned in the inspection area of the optical inspection facility, and; a computer processing unit ( 30 ,  30 a ,  30 b ) configured for comparing an inspection result from a control container ( 12 t ), as determined by the optical inspection facility ( 16 a ,  16 b ), to an expected inspection result from the control container ( 12 t ); characterized in that: the system of checking comprises a facility for the optical recognition ( 32 ) of a control container ( 12 t ) by optical recognition of a control mark ( 42 ) in a marking portion ( 40 ) of the control container ( 12 t ), comprising:\n a source ( 34 ) of incident recognition light (LRi) illuminating a recognition area ( 35 ) of the facility and having an incident recognition spectrum; \n an optical collector ( 36 ) collecting, in the presence of a control container in the recognition area, a return recognition light (LRr) resulting from the interaction of the incident recognition light (LRi) with the marking portion ( 40 ) and with a possible control mark ( 42 ), the return recognition light (LRr) having a return recognition spectrum; a recognition photoelectric sensor ( 38 ) converting, in a recognition spectral band (BSR), the collected return recognition light (LRr) into a linear or two-dimensional multipoint recognition digital image; a computer unit ( 30 ) for analyzing the recognition digital image (IR) for detecting the possible control mark ( 42 ); and in that the control mark ( 42 ), affixed to the marking portion ( 40 ) of a control container ( 12 t ), has optical properties of spectral transformation which confer on the marked marking portion ( 44 ) optical properties of spectral transformation which differ from those of the marking portion free of any mark ( 46 ) in a useful portion of the incident recognition spectrum and/or of the recognition spectral band and which are identical to those of the marking portion free of any mark ( 46 ) in at least the whole of a useful portion of the incident inspection spectrum and of the inspection spectral band (BSI).
