In the last decade, there has been a very rapid growth in the market of high-power laser devices (precision welding, surface treatment). These lasers have up to a few kW of light power and usually work in invisible infrared to the human eye, which makes them extremely dangerous to life and health – the moment of inattention of the operator can lead to blinding bystanders even a few hundred meters away, or cause very serious and difficult to heal IV degree burns (damage to the bones and internal organs). At the same time, there are no adequate protective devices to ensure the safety of the operator and its surroundings. Today, heavy metal shields and curtains are used to protect against radiation, which can only provide protection for a certain period of time required for perforation. It is assumed that the source of dangerous radiation will be shut down before the shields are destroyed. Unfortunately, in the case of high-power lasers, this time can be very short and prevent a dangerous event from being avoided. Except for closed work frames, there are no devices providing active protection, i.e. to detect shield lighting and turn off the laser automatically. The aim of the project is to develop an innovative solution – an active protective curtain that will be able to detect light with a laser beam in fractions of seconds and turn off its source before dangerous radiation gets out of the workspace. A large advantage of the active curtain will be its low weight and flexibility ensuring easy transport and competitive price. It will be possible to secure relatively large working areas applicable, for example, to the shipbuilding industry. The solution developed will contribute to the trench (English) | |||||||||||||||

W ostatniej dekadzie obserwuje się bardzo szybki wzrost na rynku urządzeń wykorzystujących lasery wysokiej mocy (precyzyjne spawanie, obróbka powierzchniowa). Lasery te mają do paru kW mocy świetlnej i pracują zwykle w niewidocznej dla ludzkiego oka podczerwieni, co sprawia, że są wyjątkowo niebezpieczne dla życia i zdrowia - chwila nieuwagi operatora może doprowadzić do oślepienia postronnych osób oddalonych nawet o kilkaset metrów, lub spowodować bardzo poważne i trudno gojące się oparzenia IV stopnia (uszkodzenia kości i narządów wewnętrznych). Jednocześnie brak jest odpowiednich urządzeń ochronnych zapewniających bezpieczeństwo operatorowi jak i jego otoczeniu. Obecnie w celu ochrony przed promieniowaniem wykorzystuje się ciężkie metalowe osłony oraz kurtyny, które mogą zapewnić ochronę tylko przez określony czas wymagany do ich perforacji. Zakłada się, że źródło niebezpiecznego promieniowania zostanie wyłączone zanim dojdzie do zniszczenia osłon. Niestety w przypadku laserów dużej mocy, czas ten może być bardzo krótki i uniemożliwić uniknięcie niebezpiecznego zdarzenia. Z wyjątkiem zamkniętych klatek roboczych brak jest urządzeń zapewniających aktywną ochronę, tj. pozwalających wykryć oświetlenie osłon i wyłączyć laser automatycznie. Celem projektu jest opracowanie innowacyjnego rozwiązania - aktywnej kurtyny ochronnej, która będzie w stanie wykryć oświetlenie wiązką lasera w ułamkach sekund i wyłączyć jej źródło zanim niebezpieczne promieniowanie wydostanie się poza obszar roboczy. Dużą przewagą aktywnej kurtyny będzie jej niska masa i elastyczność zapewniająca łatwy transport oraz konkurencyjną cenę. Możliwe będzie zabezpieczenie stosunkowo dużych obszarów roboczych mających zastosowanie np. w przemyśle stoczniowym. Opracowane rozwiązanie przyczyni się rów (Polish)
