Visual scanning arrangement for object e.g. tooth model, has visual scanning unit swivelable about horizontal tilting axis orthogonal to one of horizontal displacement directions of slide and vertically movable relative to slide

摘要

A visual scanning unit (28) is arranged over a slide (20) on a base frame and emits a linear or quasi linear scanning light beam (30) towards the object (92) held on the slide. The unit is vertically movable relative to the slide and is swivelable about a horizontal tilting axis (36) orthogonal to one of horizontal displacement directions of the slide and parallel to other displacement direction.
