A surface inspection lighting apparatus (1) for use in the visual inspection by a human inspector (2) of a reflective surface (3) for surface defects (6). The apparatus has a region from which light emanates when the apparatus is in use. The intensity of the light emanating from the said region varies gradually substantially as an exponential function of a sinusoidal function of the distance along an imaginary line (A-B) across the said region. The specular reflection of light from said region in a flat, defect free, reflective test surface is perceived by a human inspector to have a substantially sinusoidal intensity distribution.

Appareil lumineux (1) pour inspection de surface utilisé par un inspecteur (2) pour inspecter visuellement une surface réfléchissante (3) et y rechercher des défauts éventuels (6). L'appareil, lorsqu'il est utilisé, comporte une région d'où émane la lumière. L'intensité de la lumière émanant de ladite région varie graduellement sensiblement comme une fonction exponentielle d'une fonction sinusoïdale de la distance le long d'une ligne imaginaire (A-B) traversant ladite région. La réflexion spéculaire de la lumière en provenance de cette région sur une surface de test réfléchissante, plate et sans défaut apparaît à l'inspecteur comme ayant une distribution d'intensité sensiblement sinusoïdale.
