Abstract:
To provide a confocal displacement sensor capable of reducing a measurement error. Light having a plurality of wavelengths is emitted by a light processing section  120.  A chromatic aberration along an optical axis direction is caused by a lens unit  220  in the light emitted by the light projecting section  120.  The light having the chromatic aberration converged and irradiated on a measurement object S by the lens unit  220.  In the light irradiated on the measurement object S by the lens unit  220,  light having a wavelength reflected while focusing on the surface of the measurement object S passes through a plurality of pinholes. Displacement of the measurement object S is calculated by an arithmetic processing section  150  on the basis of signal intensity for each wavelength of an average signal corresponding to an average of intensities for each wavelength concerning a plurality of lights passed through the plurality of pinholes.

Claim (Index 8):
The confocal displacement sensor according to  claim 2 , wherein\n the displacement measuring section includes: a spectral section configured to respectively spectrally disperse the plurality of lights passed through the plurality of pinholes; a light receiving section configured to respectively receive the plurality of lights spectrally dispersed by the spectral section and output a plurality of electric light reception signals indicating light reception amounts for each wavelength concerning the respective plurality of lights passed through the plurality of pinholes; and a calculating section configured to average or integrate, for each wavelength, the plurality of light reception signals output from the light receiving section to thereby calculate the average signal as signal intensity for the each wavelength and calculate the displacement of the measurement object on the basis of the calculated average signal.
