Abstract
Een camera gemonteerd op een bestaande bewegende arm van een medische diagnose automaat laat toe beelden door te sturen naar een operator die aan de hand daarvan nu en dan een inspectie kan doen van het aan de hand zijnde proces. De camera wordt ondersteund met een belichting die zodanig is (golflengte, intensiteit, belichtingsduur) dat de invloed ervan op de te inspecteren processen verwaarloosbaar is.A camera mounted on an existing moving arm of a medical diagnostic machine allows images to be forwarded to an operator who can occasionally inspect the process in progress. The camera is supported with an exposure that is such (wavelength, intensity, exposure time) that its influence on the processes to be inspected is negligible.

Inspectie camera gemomteerd op een medische diagnose automaat.Inspection camera mounted on a medical diagnosis machine.
DoelTarget
De uitvinding vindt zijn gebruik in de medische diagnose wereld waarbij de automaat welke medische testen uitvoert voorzien is van camera. Met deze camera worden beelden naar de operator gestuurd zodat deze zich kan vergewissen van het goede verloop van de test.The invention finds its use in the medical diagnosis world in which the machine performing medical tests is provided with a camera. With this camera, images are sent to the operator so that he can ensure that the test runs smoothly.
Stand van de techniekState of the art
Op dit ogenblik wordt er, om de goede werking van de automaat na te gaan, gerekend op foutenboodschappen die de automaat mogelijkerwijs genereert tijdens de test. Bijkomend kan de operator, nu en dan, tijdens het verloop van de test, een visuele inspectie uitvoeren.At this time, in order to check the proper functioning of the machine, it is counted on error messages that the machine might generate during the test. In addition, the operator can occasionally perform a visual inspection during the course of the test.
Getailleerde uiteenzettingDetailed explanation
Er wordt gebruik gemaakt van een kleine camera welke zodanig op de automaat gemonteerd is dat de operator een goed beeld krijgt van het gebied van de automaat welke hij nu en dan wil controleren. De camera kan ook gemonteerd worden op een bestaande bewegende arm van de automaat, waardoor de camera mee beweegt, en er een nog betere inspectie kan bekomen worden. Het voordeel van een kleine camera is dat hij kan gemomteerd worden op plaatsen waar de operator normaal gezien moeilijk of niet bij kan.A small camera is used which is mounted on the machine in such a way that the operator gets a good picture of the area of the machine that he occasionally wants to check. The camera can also be mounted on an existing moving arm of the machine, so that the camera moves with it, and an even better inspection can be obtained. The advantage of a small camera is that it can be mounted in places where the operator normally finds it difficult or impossible to access.
Voor testen welke gevoelig zijn voor licht, en dus verlopen onder lage belichting niveau’s, kan de camera toch beelden geven welke anders voor de operator niet zichtbaar zouden zijn. Om de testen welke lichtgevoelig zijn niet of weinig te verstoren kan de camera beelden doorzenden genomen met korte belichtingstijden of waarbij een lichtbron wordt gebruikt die een golflengte heeft waarbij de testen niet verstoord worden maar waarvoor de camera toch gevoelig is.For tests that are sensitive to light, and therefore run under low exposure levels, the camera can still provide images that would otherwise not be visible to the operator. In order not to disrupt, or little to disturb, the photosensitive tests, the camera can transmit images taken with short exposure times or where a light source is used which has a wavelength at which the tests are not disturbed but for which the camera is nevertheless sensitive.
Een voorbeeld hiervan is de montage van een camera op een bewegende arm van een pipetteerautomaat. De plaats van de camera kan zo gekozen worden dat de camera is opgesteld juist boven de pipetteerprobe. Op die manier ziet de operator de naalden van de pipetteerprobe steeds in beeld, en gaat het beeld steeds mee met de probe. Is de camera klein genoeg, dan kan deze op de probe zelf gemonteerd worden. Daardoor beweegt de camera niet enkel met de probe in een x-y vlak, maar voert hij ook een vertikale beweging (z) uit. Dit alles om de operator een zo optimaal mogelijke inspectie te laten uitvoeren.An example of this is the mounting of a camera on a moving arm of a pipetting machine. The location of the camera can be selected so that the camera is positioned just above the pipetting probe. In this way, the operator always sees the needles of the pipetting probe, and the image always goes with the probe. If the camera is small enough, it can be mounted on the probe itself. As a result, the camera not only moves with the probe in an x-y plane, but it also performs a vertical movement (z). All this to allow the operator to perform the most optimal inspection possible.
