CA 2622621

A rail system made of one or more flexible guide rods, each consisting of a tension rod, is used to support lightweight, mobile devices such as carriages, scanning heads or optical sensors. The rail is configured to permit movement of the mobile device, when driven by an external drive mechanism, along a main scanning direction but prohibits rotational movement of the mobile device. In this fashion, the mobile device remains substantially at the same measured distance from the flat surface of an object, e.g., moving sheet or web, being analyzed.

L'invention concerne un système de rail comprenant une ou plusieurs tiges de guidage flexibles constituées chacune d'une tige de tension, utilisé pour supporter des dispositifs mobiles, légers, tels que des chariots, des têtes de balayage ou des capteurs optiques. Le rail est conçu pour permettre au dispositif mobile de se déplacer, lorsqu'il est actionné par un mécanisme d'entraînement externe, le long d'un sens de balayage principal, mais pour empêcher tout mouvement de rotation du dispositif mobile. Ainsi, le dispositif mobile reste sensiblement à la même distance de mesure par rapport à la surface plane d'un objet analysé, tel qu'une feuille ou un voile, par exemple.
