Abstract

A system for measuring displacement of an accelerating tube by using a micro-alignment telescope, which includes a vacuum chamber; a hollow accelerating tube in the vacuum chamber; a sighting target attached to a surface of the accelerating tube while protruding from the surface of the accelerating tube; the micro-alignment telescope spaced apart from one side surface of the vacuum chamber; a first lens device interposed between the micro-alignment telescope and the vacuum chamber; and a second lens device spaced apart from an opposite side surface of the vacuum chamber by a distance, wherein the vacuum chamber includes first and second viewports placed on the surfaces of the vacuum chamber in correspondence with each other, and the micro-alignment telescope, the first lens device, the first viewport, the sighting target, the second viewport and the second lens device are aligned on a same axis in one direction.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system of measuring displacement of an accelerating tube by using a micro-alignment telescope, the system comprising:
a vacuum chamber inside which a vacuum state can be formed;
a hollow accelerating tube placed in the vacuum chamber;
a sighting target attached to a surface of the accelerating tube while protruding from the surface of the accelerating tube;
the micro-alignment telescope spaced apart from one side surface of the vacuum chamber by a predetermined distance;
a first lens device interposed between the micro-alignment telescope and the vacuum chamber; and
a second lens device spaced apart from an opposite side surface of the vacuum chamber by a predetermined distance,
wherein the vacuum chamber includes first and second viewports placed on the one side surface and the opposite surface of the vacuum chamber in correspondence with each other, and
the micro-alignment telescope, the first lens device, the first viewport the sighting target, the second viewport and the second lens device are aligned on a same axis in one direction.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the micro-alignment telescope, the first lens device, the first viewport, the sighting target, the second viewport and the second lens device is provided as a pair aligned about two axes, and
the pair of sighting targets protrudes from both sides of the accelerating tube.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second lens device comprises a light source.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first lens device comprises an inclination controller.

5. The system of claim 3 , wherein the light source forms one optical axis, and
the micro-alignment telescope, the first lens device, the first viewport, the sighting target, the second viewport and the second lens device are aligned about the optical axis.
