Description
本発明は、計測用Ｘ線ＣＴ装置、及び、その校正方法に係り、特に、被測定物と参照体の比較照合による校正を容易に行うことができ、測定の高精度化と効率向上を図ることが可能な計測用Ｘ線ＣＴ装置、及び、その校正方法に関する。 The present invention relates to an X-ray CT apparatus for measurement and a calibration method therefor, and in particular, calibration can be easily performed by comparing and comparing an object to be measured and a reference object, and measurement accuracy and efficiency can be improved. The present invention relates to a measurement X-ray CT apparatus that can be used, and a calibration method thereof.
１９７０年代に医療用Ｘ線ＣＴ装置が実用に供され、この技術をベースに１９８０年代初期頃より工業用製品のためのＸ線ＣＴ装置が登場した。以来、工業用Ｘ線ＣＴ装置は、外観からでは確認困難な鋳物部品の巣、溶接部品の溶接不良、および電子回路部品の回路パターンの欠陥などの観察・検査に用いられてきた。一方、近年３Ｄプリンタの普及に伴い、３Ｄプリンタによる加工品内部の観察・検査のみならず、内部構造の３Ｄ寸法計測とその高精度化の需要が増大しつつある。 Medical X-ray CT apparatuses were put to practical use in the 1970's, and based on this technology, X-ray CT apparatuses for industrial products appeared in the early 1980's. Since then, industrial X-ray CT apparatuses have been used for observation and inspection of cast part nests, weld defects in welding parts, and circuit pattern defects in electronic circuit parts, which are difficult to confirm from the appearance. On the other hand, with the widespread use of 3D printers in recent years, the demand for not only observation and inspection of the inside of a workpiece with a 3D printer but also 3D measurement of internal structure and its high accuracy is increasing.
上述の技術の動向に対して、計測用Ｘ線ＣＴ装置がドイツを中心に普及し始めている（特許文献１、２参照）。この計測用Ｘ線ＣＴ装置では、測定対象を回転テーブル中心に配置して測定対象を回転させながらＸ線照射を行う。 In response to the above-mentioned trends in technology, X-ray CT apparatuses for measurement are beginning to spread mainly in Germany (see Patent Documents 1 and 2). In this measurement X-ray CT apparatus, X-ray irradiation is performed while the measurement object is disposed at the center of the rotary table and the measurement object is rotated.
計測で使用する一般的なＸ線ＣＴ装置１の構成を図１に示す。Ｘ線を遮蔽するブース５の中にコーンビーム状のＸ線２５を照射するＸ線源２１、Ｘ線２５を検出するＸ線検出器４１、測定対象Ｗを置いてＣＴ撮像の為に測定対象Ｗを回転させる回転テーブル３２、Ｘ線検出器４１に映る測定対象Ｗの位置や倍率を調整するためのＸＹＺ移動機構部３があり、それらのデバイスを制御するモーションコントローラ７、及び、ユーザ操作によりモーションコントローラ７に指示を与えるホストコンピュータ６などで構成される。 The configuration of a general X-ray CT apparatus 1 used in measurement is shown in FIG. An X-ray source 21 for emitting a cone beam X-ray 25 in a booth 5 for shielding X-rays, an X-ray detector 41 for detecting the X-ray 25, and a measurement object W placed for measurement of CT There is a rotary table 32 for rotating W, an XYZ moving mechanism unit 3 for adjusting the position and magnification of the measurement object W displayed on the X-ray detector 41, a motion controller 7 for controlling these devices, and user operation It comprises a host computer 6 or the like that gives an instruction to the motion controller 7.
ホストコンピュータ６は、各デバイス制御の他に、Ｘ線検出器４１に映る測定対象Ｗの投影画像を表示する機能や、測定対象Ｗの複数の投影画像から断層画像を再構成する機能を有する。 The host computer 6 has a function of displaying a projection image of the measurement object W displayed on the X-ray detector 41 and a function of reconstructing a tomographic image from a plurality of projection images of the measurement object W, in addition to control of each device.
Ｘ線源２１から照射されたＸ線２５は、図２に示す如く、回転テーブル３２上の測定対象Ｗを透過してＸ線検出器４１に届く。測定対象Ｗを回転させながらあらゆる方向の測定対象Ｗの透過画像（投影画像）をＸ線検出器４１で得て、逆投影法や逐次近似法などの再構成アルゴリズムを使って再構成することにより、測定対象Ｗの断層画像を生成する。 The X-rays 25 emitted from the X-ray source 21 pass through the measurement object W on the rotary table 32 and reach the X-ray detector 41 as shown in FIG. A transmitted image (projected image) of the measurement object W in all directions is obtained by the X-ray detector 41 while rotating the measurement object W, and is reconstructed using a reconstruction algorithm such as a back projection method or successive approximation method. , Tomograms of the measurement object W are generated.
前記ＸＹＺ移動機構部３のＸＹＺ軸と回転テーブル３２のθ軸を制御することにより、測定対象Ｗの位置を移動することができ、測定対象Ｗの撮影範囲（位置、倍率）や撮影角度を調整することができる。 The position of the measuring object W can be moved by controlling the XYZ axes of the XYZ moving mechanism unit 3 and the θ axis of the rotary table 32, and the photographing range (position, magnification) of the measuring object W and the photographing angle are adjusted. can do.
又、近年、寸法計測の高精度化の要求に応えるため、Ｘ線ＣＴ装置の内部（特許文献３）や近傍（特許文献４）に三次元測定機（ＣＭＭ）を併設した複合型測定システムが提案されている。この複合型測定システムでは、ＣＭＭによる測定で得られた外形寸法を基準にしてＸ線ＣＴ装置で得られた３Ｄ寸法を校正することによって高精度化が図られている。 Also, in recent years, in order to meet the demand for higher precision in dimension measurement, a combined measurement system in which a three-dimensional measurement machine (CMM) is additionally provided inside (patent document 3) or near (patent document 4) the X-ray CT apparatus. Proposed. In this combined measurement system, high accuracy is achieved by calibrating the 3D dimensions obtained by the X-ray CT apparatus on the basis of the outer dimensions obtained by the CMM measurement.
しかしながら、ＣＭＭとＸ線ＣＴ装置を併設した複合型測定システムにおいては、ＣＭＭとＸ線ＣＴ装置による測定を連続的に行う必要があり、一方の稼働中には他方が停止状態となる。従って、共に高価な装置であるＣＭＭとＸ線ＣＴ装置を同時に並行して使用することができず、特に量産ワークの連続測定が必要な場合には、作業効率に支障が出る。 However, in the combined measurement system in which the CMM and the X-ray CT apparatus are provided side by side, it is necessary to continuously perform the measurement by the CMM and the X-ray CT apparatus, and the other is stopped during one operation. Therefore, the CMM and the X-ray CT apparatus, which are both expensive apparatuses, can not be used simultaneously in parallel, and particularly when continuous measurement of mass-produced workpieces is required, the working efficiency is impaired.
一方、ＣＭＭとＸ線ＣＴ装置が別置とされていれば、両者を独立して有効活用できるが、被測定物の測定値をマスタワークやゲージ等の参照体の測定値で校正するためには、被測定物と参照体をいちいち置き換える必要があり、その都度、放射線の遮蔽と解除を行う必要もあるため、やはり作業に時間がかかるという問題点を有していた。 On the other hand, if the CMM and the X-ray CT system are separated, both can be used effectively independently, but in order to calibrate the measured value of the object to be measured with the measured value of the reference object such as master work or gauge However, since it is necessary to replace the object to be measured and the reference one by one, and it is also necessary to shield and release the radiation each time, there is a problem that the operation also takes time.
本発明は、前記従来の問題点を解決するべくなされたもので、三次元寸法計測により計測用Ｘ線ＣＴの測定の高精度化を実現するだけでなく、計測用Ｘ線ＣＴ装置と三次元寸法計測装置を効率良く稼働させ、経済性を向上することを課題とする。 The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and realizes not only high precision of measurement of X-ray CT for measurement by three-dimensional dimension measurement, but also X-ray CT apparatus for measurement and three-dimensional An object of the present invention is to operate the dimension measuring device efficiently and improve the economy.

On the upper surface of the base 11, two X guide rails 12a and 12b extending in the X-axis direction are disposed apart from and parallel to each other, and the X-ray source carriage 22 carrying the X-ray source 21 and the X carriage 31 Guide in the direction.
Ｘ線源キャリッジ２２はＸ軸第１駆動部２３ａで、Ｘキャリッジ３１はＸ軸第２駆動部２３ｂでＸ軸方向にそれぞれ独立して駆動制御される。Ｘ軸第１駆動部２３ａおよびＸ軸第２駆動部２３ｂのＸ軸方向に延びる駆動軸は、Ｚ軸上方から見て２本のＸガイドレール１２ａと１２ｂの中央線ＣＬに一致して一直線上に配置される。 The X-ray source carriage 22 is driven and controlled independently in the X-axis direction by the X-axis first drive unit 23a and the X-carriage 31 by the X-axis second drive unit 23b. The drive axes extending in the X-axis direction of the X-axis first drive portion 23a and the X-axis second drive portion 23b are aligned with the center lines CL of the two X guide rails 12a and 12b when viewed from above the Z axis Will be placed.

The X-ray focal point 24, which is a generation point of X-ray radiation, is disposed substantially coincident with the center line CL when viewed from above the Z axis, and the X-ray radiation beam spreads conically in the X axis direction (cone beam X Line 25), its center line is adjusted to coincide with the center line CL.
Ｘキャリッジ３１の上面には互いに離間しかつ平行にＹ軸方向に延びる２本のＹガイドレール３４ａと３４ｂが配置され、第１Ｙキャリッジ３３ａと第２Ｙキャリッジ３３ｂをＹ軸方向に案内する。 Two Y guide rails 34a and 34b extending in the Y-axis direction are disposed on the upper surface of the X carriage 31 so as to be spaced apart and parallel to each other, and guide the first Y carriage 33a and the second Y carriage 33b in the Y axis direction.
第１Ｙキャリッジ３３ａはＹ軸第１駆動部３５ａで、第２Ｙキャリッジ３３ｂはＹ軸第２駆動部３５ｂでＹ軸方向にそれぞれ独立して駆動制御される。 The first Y carriage 33a is driven and controlled independently in the Y axis direction by the Y axis first drive unit 35a and the second Y carriage 33b by the Y axis second drive unit 35b.
第１Ｙキャリッジ３３ａおよび第２Ｙキャリッジ３３ｂのそれぞれ上面には、第１回転テーブル３２ａおよび第２回転テーブル３２ｂが配置され、それぞれの回転軸は互いに平行に、且つＺ軸と平行に調整され固定される。 A first rotary table 32a and a second rotary table 32b are disposed on the upper surfaces of the first Y carriage 33a and the second Y carriage 33b, respectively, and the respective rotation axes are adjusted and fixed parallel to each other and parallel to the Z axis .
第１回転テーブル３２ａおよび第２回転テーブル３２ｂの上面にはＸ線ＣＴ測定に供される測定対象が搭載される。ここで、第１回転テーブル３２ａおよび第２回転テーブル３２ｂのどちらか一方には被測定物となるワークＷ2が搭載され、他方にはワークＷ2の比較参照基準となるマスタワークＷ1が搭載されることとなる。 The measurement targets to be subjected to the X-ray CT measurement are mounted on the upper surfaces of the first rotary table 32a and the second rotary table 32b.

図６に本発明の第２実施形態を示す。 FIG. 6 shows a second embodiment of the present invention.
この第２実施形態では、Ｘ線遮蔽ブース５の両側面に、外側位置にある回転テーブル３２ａ、３２ｂに作業者Ｏがアクセスするための外部スライドドア５２を設けると共に、Ｘ線遮蔽ブース５内に、Ｘ線２５の通過部分から、その外側位置にある回転テーブル３２ａ、３２ｂをそれぞれ遮蔽するための、Ｙ軸方向に延びる作業者Ｏから見て左右一対の遮蔽内壁５３と、Ｘ線２５に沿ってＸ軸方向にスライド可能な内部スライドドア５４を設けている。 In the second embodiment, on both sides of the X-ray shielding booth 5, an external slide door 52 for the operator O to access the rotary tables 32a and 32b at the outer position is provided. , And a pair of left and right shielding inner walls 53 seen from the worker O extending in the Y-axis direction for shielding the rotary tables 32a and 32b at the outer positions from the passing part of the X-rays 25, An internal slide door 54 which can slide in the X-axis direction is provided.
この第２実施形態では、例えば第１回転テーブル３２ａ上の測定対象の測定が実施されている時に、外部スライドドア５２を開きかつ内部スライドドア５４を閉めることにより、作業者Ｏが放射線を気にすることなく第２回転テーブル３２ｂ上に次の測定対象のセッティングを行い、次の測定の準備を行うことが可能になる。 In the second embodiment, for example, when the measurement of the object to be measured on the first rotary table 32a is being performed, the worker O cares for radiation by opening the outer slide door 52 and closing the inner slide door 54. It is possible to set the next measurement target on the second rotary table 32b without preparing for the next measurement.
これによって量産品の測定対象のＸ線ＣＴによる検査効率を向上させることが可能になる。 This makes it possible to improve the inspection efficiency of the measurement target of mass-produced products by X-ray CT.
本実施形態においては、１台の回転テーブルで測定中に、もう一方の回転テーブル上にＸ線を浴びることなく測定対象又は参照体を載せることができるので、安全性が高く且つ作業効率が高い。 In this embodiment, during measurement with one rotating table, the object to be measured or the reference body can be placed on the other rotating table without being exposed to X-rays, so safety is high and work efficiency is high. .
なお、前記実施形態においては、いずれも、回転テーブル毎にキャリッジを設け、互いに独立してＸ線が通過する測定位置へ出し入れ可能としているので、例えば回転テーブルを両側に移動し、中央のＸ線通過部分を空けた状態でそれぞれに測定対象又は参照体を配設した後、例えば測定対象、続いて参照体をＸ線通過部分に移動して連続的に測定を行うことができ、自由度が高い。なお、共通のキャリッジの上に２台の回転テーブルを載置して、例えば両方の回転テーブルが空いている状態で一方に測定対象を載せ、測定対象をＸ線通過部分に移動した状態で他方の回転テーブルに参照体を載せ、その後で測定対象、次いで参照体と連続的に測定を行うこともできる。この場合には、キャリッジは１台でよく、構成が簡略である。 In each of the above embodiments, a carriage is provided for each rotary table, and can be taken in and out of measurement positions where X-rays pass independently of each other. For example, the rotary table is moved to both sides and the central X-ray After disposing the measuring object or the reference body in a state where the passing portion is open, for example, the measuring object and then the reference body can be moved to the X-ray passing portion to perform measurement continuously, and the degree of freedom is high. Note that two rotary tables are placed on a common carriage, and for example, the measurement target is placed on one side in a state in which both rotary tables are open, and the other is moved to the X-ray passing portion It is also possible to place the reference on the rotary table and then make measurements continuously with the object to be measured and then with the reference. In this case, only one carriage is required, and the configuration is simple.
なお、キャリッジに載せる回転テーブルの数は１台又は２台に限定されず、３台以上とすることも可能である。 The number of rotary tables placed on the carriage is not limited to one or two, and may be three or more.
