Optical test device
View Patent ↗An optical test device for testing flat test objects comprises a holder for the test object and two optical sensors for detecting the three-dimensional surface topography of the test object. According to the invention, the holder is formed at least in sections as a test standard and is disposed with respect to the sensors in such a way that the sensors scan the test object from opposite sides and also detect the holder as a test standard at least in sections during the detecting of the test object.
1 . An optical test device for testing flat test objects, comprising:
a holder for the test object and
at least two optical sensors for detecting the three-dimensional surface topography of the test object, wherein:
the holder is formed at least in sections as test standard and is disposed relative to the sensors in such a way that the sensors scan the test object from opposite sides and, during the detecting of the test object, also detect the holder as test standard at least in sections,
the holder comprises two plate-shaped individual parts, each with a window-shaped recess for the receiving of the test object in a reference plane, which are formed as test standard surfaces at their mutually facing surfaces, and
the individual parts are connected to each other in the reference plane offset relative to each other in such a way that test normal surfaces of the one individual part can be or are scanned by one of the sensors through the recess in the other individual part.
2 . The test device according to claim 1 , wherein the holder is formed as a frame.
3 . The test device according to claim 2 , wherein the frame is formed as a circumferentially closed frame with a window-shaped recess.
