Abstract
1286236 Photo-electric attitude measuring ROBERT BOSCH GmbH 18 June 1970 [18 June 1969] 29521/70 Heading H4D [Also in Division G1] To measure vehicle wheel axle angles, mirrors 12 are mounted on the wheels 10 with their planes normal to the respective axles, projectors 13, which in a datum position are aligned with each other, project measurement diagrams 21 via respective mirrors 12 on to fixed screens 18 adjacent the associated projectors, and the projectors are moved angularly to align their diagrams with datum lines on the screens 18 so that the angular deflection of each projector is a measure of the angle of the associated axle. The projector is movable about perpendicular axes 14, 15 and is rigidly coupled to a tapping point 16 of a variable resistor 17 in a bridge circuit (Fig. 5, not shown) or feeding an indicator 27 as shown, or other data-processing or signalling device. Camber angle is measured by adjusting the projector about the horizontal axis 14 and track angles by adjustment about the vertical axis 15. For automatic adjustment servomotors 28 acting about the two axes are controlled by photodiodes 19, 20 in the screen 18, the diagram 21 defining light-dark boundaries 22, 23 for co-operation with the photodiodes 19, 20 respectively. Alternatively a single servomotor may be used to move the projector 13 about an oblique axis so that the diagram moves diagonally across the screen. To increase the range of the device, the boundaries 22, 23 may be defined by different coloured bands of light, each colour illuminating half the diagram, said halves being at right angles to divide the diagram into quarters (Fig. 3, not shown). The photodiodes then have suitable colour filters. In a modification, the projectors are fixed, and the wheel mirrors 12 or additional intermediate mirrors are angularly adjusted and their deflections sensed.
