計に関する。
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a radiation thickness gauge having means for compensating for the effects of temperature disturbances around upper and lower detection heads arranged opposite to each other.

放射線厚さ計における温度外乱には、大きく分けて2種
類ある。
There are roughly two types of temperature disturbances in radiation thickness gauges.

の温度変化であり、他の1つは、検出上・下ヘッドの箱
内の温度変化である。
One is the temperature change in the air layer in the gap between the upper and lower detection heads, and the other is the temperature change inside the box of the upper and lower detection heads.

前者は、ギャップの空気層の密度変化となって測定値そ
のものに影響を与える。
The former changes the density of the air layer in the gap and affects the measured value itself.

たとえば、紙の坪量を測定する場合、空気層は10間当

0、04 & /7112となる。
For example, when measuring the basis weight of paper, the air layer will have a basis weight of about 1397 m2 per 10 degrees, and about 0.04 & /7112 per 1 degree Celsius change in temperature.

したがって、空気層の温度変化が5〜6℃もあれば、精
度の点から無視し得ない。
Therefore, if the temperature change in the air layer is as much as 5 to 6 degrees Celsius, it cannot be ignored from the viewpoint of accuracy.

In conventional radiation thickness gauges, in order to compensate for the effects of temperature disturbances with different characteristics, thermocouples with excellent responsiveness are used to detect the temperature of the air layer in the gap.
