摘要： A method and a unit for determining the spatial position of a wheel rim with respect to a measuring unit having at least one camera, wherein the wheel rim lies in the viewing field of the camera, including making available of a model, that describes a model body of a localizable wheel rim geometry detail as well as the spatial position of the model body with respect to the measuring unit, through model parameters, capturing of a picture of the wheel rim geometry detail of the wheel rim with the camera, fitting the image of the model body resulting from the model parameters to the picture of the wheel rim geometry detail through changing the model parameters of the model, and tracking the changes of the model parameters upon the fitting, whereby the data related to the position of the model body of the wheel rim geometry detail reflect the spatial position of the wheel rim-geometry detail and, thereby, the wheel rim itself, when the image resulting from the model parameters, of the wheel rim-geometry detail fits to the captured picture of the wheel rim geometry detail within the asserted tolerance limits. The invention also relates to a wheel alignment measuring method and to a wheel alignment measuring system that uses said method and said unit.

摘要： An apparatus for determining wheel assembly alignment comprises a contact assembly, a light source, and a light beam receiving assembly. The contact assembly engages the wheel assembly to define a plane of orientation of the wheel assembly and the light source projects a beam of light with respect to the contact assembly. The light beam receiving assembly receives the light beam and forms an image of the light beam indicating the orientation of the wheel assembly with respect to a predetermined position. The receiving assembly may include a Fresnel lens for directing the received light beam to a target and a camera device for imaging the light beam on the target, with the camera device adapted to provide toe and camber information of the wheel assembly based on the location at which the light beam impinges upon the target. The contact assembly may be pressed against the wheel assembly without being secured thereto.

摘要： A hybrid wheel alignment system and methodology use passive targets for a first pair of wheels (e.g. front wheels) and active sensing heads for another pair of wheels (e.g. rear wheels). The active sensing heads combine image sensors for capturing images of the targets with at least one spatial relationship sensor for sensing a relationship between the active sensing heads. One or both of the active sensing heads may include inclinometers or the like, for sensing one or more tilt angles of the respective sensing head. Data from the active sensing heads may be sent to a host computer for processing to derive one or more vehicle measurements, for example, for measurement of parameters useful in wheel alignment applications.

摘要： A target system for determining the location of a position on a vehicle comprises a target body, one or more target elements, a trigger, and a point definer. The target elements are disposed on the target body and are detectable by a position determination system. The trigger is positioned on the target body and is remote from the position determination system. The trigger operates the position determination system by selectively changing the detection of one or more of the target elements by the position determination system. The point definer extends from the target body, and the point definer includes a point its a distal end. The point is capable of being located adjacent the position on the vehicle and is at a known location from the target body. The position determination system determines a location of the target body after detecting the target elements disposed on the target body. Methods of using the target system are disclosed.

摘要： A vehicle alignment sensor system includes a first sensor assembly for measuring at least a first angle with respect to a fixed reference, that angle being related in a predetermined manner to an alignment angle of a vehicle whose alignment is to be measured, and a second sensor assembly for mounting in a known geometrical relationship to a wheel of a vehicle whose alignment is to be measured. The first sensor assembly has at least one detector, and the second sensor assembly has at least a pair of emitters in fixed geometrical relationship with respect to each other. The detector is capable of measuring the apparent geometrical relationship of the pair of emitters to determine a relative alignment angle of the vehicle, so that a true alignment angle of the vehicle is determinable from the first angle and the relative alignment angle. A calibration method using the present invention is also disclosed.

摘要： An apparatus and method for determining the orientation parameters of a wheel-alignment optical target 10 affixed to a vehicle wheel 20 by a no-compensation wheel clamp 16. The wheel-alignment optical target includes a stub shaft 24 adapted for insertion within an axial bore 18 of the no-compensation wheel clamp after the wheel clamp is secured to the vehicle wheel. An optical imaging system observes the optical target and measures the orientation of the target face in a first position. The optical target is rotated partially about the longitudinal axis of the stub shaft, and the optical target is again observed and the orientation of the target face is again measured by the optical imaging system. By comparing the measured orientations of the optical target at the two rotational positions, a compensation vector Vc describing the alignment of the target face relative to the stub shaft is be determined and stored for subsequent uses of the optical target.

摘要： An apparatus determines the position of an object with respect to a reference coordinate system. Preferably, the apparatus includes a target attached to the object, the target moves within a defined region and has a surface with a first pattern thereon. A projection device projects a second pattern upon the surface. A sensing device provides an image signal indicative of the target surface including the first pattern and the second pattern. An analyzer receives the image signal and determines the position of the object based on the position of images of the first pattern and the second pattern.
