Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device ( 10 ) for checking a tyre ( 200 ), the device ( 10 ) comprising: a detection system ( 104 ) comprising a camera ( 105 ) having an optical plane ( 107 ) passing through the camera ( 105 ) and defining a focal plane ( 121 ); a first light source ( 110 ), a second light source ( 108 ) and a third light source ( 109 ) adapted for emitting a first light radiation, a second light radiation and a third light radiation, respectively to illuminate a surface portion of said tyre at or close to said focal plane ( 121 ), said second light source ( 108 ) and said third light source ( 109 ) being arranged at opposite sides with respect to said optical plane ( 107 ); where said first light source ( 110 ) is fixed with respect to said detection system ( 104 ) and said second light source ( 108 ) and third light source ( 109 ) are adapted to be movable from a first inactive configuration where they are controlled to not emit said second light radiation and third light radiation and wherein the distance (d 2 , d 3 ) of said second light source ( 108 ) and of said third light source ( 109 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ) is greater than the distance (d 1 ) of said first light source ( 110 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ) to an active configuration wherein they are adapted for emitting at least one among said second light radiation and said third light radiation and wherein the distance (d 2 , d 3 ) of said second source ( 108 ) and of said third source ( 109 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ) is equal to or less than the distance (d 1 ) of said first source ( 110 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ); and a drive and control unit ( 140 ) adapted for activating said detection system ( 104 ) to acquire a first image and at least a second image of a first surface portion and a second surface portion of said tyre ( 200 ) in said inactive configuration and in said active configuration, respectively.

Claim (Index 1):
Device ( 10 ) for checking a tyre ( 200 ), the device ( 10 ) comprising:\n a detection system ( 104 ) comprising a camera ( 105 ) having an optical plane ( 107 ) passing through the camera ( 105 ) and defining a focal plane ( 121 ); a first light source ( 110 ), a second light source ( 108 ) and a third light source ( 109 ) adapted for emitting a first light radiation, a second light radiation and a third light radiation, respectively, to illuminate a surface portion of said tyre at or close to said focal plane ( 121 ), said second light source ( 108 ) and said third light source ( 109 ) being arranged at opposite sides with respect to said optical plane ( 107 ); where said first light source ( 110 ) is fixed with respect to said detection system ( 104 ) and said second light source ( 108 ) and third light source ( 109 ) are adapted to be movable from a first inactive configuration where they are controlled not to emit said second light radiation and third light radiation and wherein the distance (d 2 , d 3 ) of said second light source ( 108 ) and of said third light source ( 109 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ) is greater than the distance (d 1 ) of said first light source ( 110 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ) to an active configuration wherein they are adapted to emit at least one from said second light radiation and said third light radiation and wherein the distance (d 2 , d 3 ) of said second source ( 108 ) and of said third source ( 109 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ) is equal to or less than the distance (d 1 ) of said first source ( 110 ) from said focal plane ( 121 ); and a drive and control unit ( 140 ) adapted for activating said detection system ( 104 ) to acquire a first image and at least a second image of a first surface portion and a second surface portion of said tyre ( 200 ) in said inactive configuration and in said active configuration, respectively.
