In a computer-implemented method and system for capturing the condition of a structure, the structure is scanned with a three-dimensional (3D) scanner. The 3D contact scanner includes a tactile sensor system having at least one tactile sensor for generating 3D data points based on tactile feedback resulting from physical contact with at least part of the structure. A 3D model is constructed from the 3D data and is then analyzed to determine the condition of the structure.

A wheel blank inspection device is composed of a rack, a lower adjusting guide rail, a lower adjusting cylinder, a first left sliding table, a first gear rack, a first right sliding table and the like. A wheel rotates a circle at a low speed, when a first piezoelectric sensor, a second piezoelectric sensor and a third piezoelectric sensor do not pick up signals and probes of a first intelligent meter, a second intelligent meter and a third intelligent meter are in a compressed state all the time, the wheel blank is qualified, otherwise, the wheel blank is deformed greatly and unqualified. After inspection, the qualified blank enters a normal lower transfer roller bed, and the unqualified blank enters a reject roller bed.

Disclosed is a wheel flange planeness detection device, comprising a frame, a lifting cylinder, a lifting platform, guide posts, a support frame, a servo motor, a bearing seat, a shaft, a bearing, a rotating platform, guide rails, a sliding block, a small chain wheel, a large chain wheel, a clamping cylinder, a chain wheel driving motor, a left sliding plate, rotating shafts, rotating wheels, a visual sensor, clamping guide rails, gear rack structures, a right sliding plate, intelligent dial indicators, a support plate, a linear motor and a motor support. The device may monitor the state of flange planeness in an automatic production line in real time; when the flange planeness is out of tolerance, the device may immediately give an alarm, and the technologist adjusts the machining process in time after receiving the alarm, thereby avoiding a large batch of rejects.

An auto-charging system is disclosed. The system may comprise a base and a set of lower arms. The set of lower arms may comprise a first lower arm and a second lower arm each having a first end and a second end.

The present invention relates to a checking fixture comprising: a bottom support frame; a metallic support sheet mechanically fixated to the bottom support frame, the metallic support sheet comprising a plurality of through holes arranged in a predetermined layout; a plurality of holder members for holding vehicle component holders or vehicle component measurement devices, the holder members being attached to the metallic support sheet in the through holes and being adapted to extend away from an upper surface of the metallic support sheet; at least one metallic sheet reinforcement structure arranged orthogonally separated from the metallic support sheet, the metallic sheet reinforcement structure being adapted to fixate the relative position of at least two of the holders members. The metallic support sheet and the metallic reinforcement sheet structure are made from laser cut sheet material.

A measuring device for measuring an excavation site is described having a supporting frame, at least one profile measuring apparatus, associated with the supporting frame, facing a corresponding lateral wall of the excavation site. Each profile measuring apparatus has a feeler element arranged to remain in contact with the excavation site lateral wall. A sensor system associated with the supporting frame is provided having rotation sensors, and translation sensors. A data processing system, based on the rotation and translation data measured by the sensor system, is provided for calculating the actual profile of the lateral wall of the excavation site.

A method for measuring a profile of a manikin. The method comprises the steps of: suspending the manikin by a suspension frame, connecting one or more measuring devices to the manikin at one or more measuring points, raising a support surface to meet the manikin, supporting the manikin by the support surface, and measuring by the one or more measuring devices, differences in angles of the manikin profile between the suspended configuration of the manikin and the supported configuration of the manikin. The manikin comprises one or more articulating joints defining a manikin profile. The manikin also defines a suspended configuration when suspended by the suspension frame, and a supported configuration when supported by the support surface. The method provides a process to replicate and measure human physiology when engaged with a surface.
