Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to the non- contacting removal of undesired surface materials from objects by use of coherent electromagne ic radiation *• * ⁇ * 5 derived from devices commonly known as lasers .
  • a par ⁇ ticular example involves marine fouling on a ship ' s hull .
  • the accumulation of barnacles leads to loss of sailing efficiency in the form of increased fuel consump tion and/or loss of speed. Losses anywhere from 5 percent to 30 percent are representative . Needless to say , this problem also reduces the speed and range of the ship .
  • One current practice for removing barnacles requires dry- docking at periodic intervals with the barnacles being removed by scraping and sandblas ting while the vessel is in dry-dock.
  • Another current practice involves the use of underwater brushes at intermediate stages to partially 20 remove fouling .
  • U.S. patent 4,131,484 relates to a laser machining operation and while it refers to an electronic cleaning concurrent with the " laser machining, such electronic cleaning occurs by electrically energizing the device which is being laser machined.
  • the present invention comprises a new and unique method for efficiently and effectively removing undesired materials from the surfaces of objects in a non- contacting fashion through the use of coherent electro ⁇ magnetic radiation as is provided by devices commonly known as lasers.
  • the in ⁇ vention may also be practiced without the necessity of dry-docking; in other words, the de-fouling operations may be conducted underwater. Because the cleaning operation is accomplished without damage to the underlying object, the invention may be practiced where objects of much lighter weight and greater delicacy than the hull of the ship are in ⁇ volved. Accordingly, it is further contemplated that the invention may be practiced for cleaning aluminum air ⁇ craft skin, automotive surfaces and other more fragile material. A wide variety of types of undesired materials may also be removed. These undesired materials may accumulate through biological growth, sedimentation, depositions, chemical actions, or in other ways. They may also comprise coatings or materials which were originally applied intentionally to a surface, but which now must be stripped from the surface.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic view illustrating the inven ⁇ tion being practiced in the context of cleaning a ship's hull.
  • Fig. 2 is a perspective view illustrating a dry- • dock at which the invention is being practiced.
  • Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating further detail of the apparatus shown in Fig. 2.
  • Fig. 4 is a block diagram illustrating a further embodiment for the practice of the invention.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates the practice of the invention in the context of removing marine fouling from the hull of a ship.
  • This drawing figure shows a set of three mirrors designated by the " reference numeral 2, a focusing lens 3 and a source of coherent electromagnetic radiation 1, commonly referred to as a laser.
  • the laser generates a laser beam designated by the reference letter B.
  • the beam is emitted from the laser and directed toward the first mirror 2.
  • the heam is turned and reflected by the first mirror 2.
  • a second mirror 2 and finally the third mirror 2 may be needed. After reflection from the first or third mirror the beam passes through the " lens 3 to be focused to a concentrated point on the surface 4 of the ship's hull which is being
  • the drawing further schematically illustrates (on an enlarged scale) a barnacle 5 which has adhered to the surface 4 of the vessel.
  • a barnacle attaches itself to a marine surface by 5 depositing a bonding material in the form of barnacle cement between itself and the marine surface.
  • This barnacle cement provides a tenacious bond which makes the barnacle very difficult to remove.
  • the illustrated arrangement of laser mirrors and focusing lens allows a laser beam to be focused at a concentrated point and optically swept so as to concentrate the power of the laser at the surface of the ship's hull where barnacles are attached.
  • the energy input to the point of attach- ent of the barnacle to the. ship's hull is of such a nature that the bond due to the barnacle cement is broken, thereby separating the barnacle from the hull.
  • the laser energy input may give rise to thermal conditions whereby the undesired material is melted or vaporized by virtue of the temperature of the undesired material being elevated above its melting, boiling, or decomposition point. It is also conceivable that the surface of the object may be melted, vaporized, or decomposed to a limited depth thereby also causing removal of undesired material.
  • Energy absortion for creating shock, vapori ⁇ zation, melting, decomposition, etc. is a function of the physical characteristics of the object and the unde ⁇ sired material. It is anticipated the shock removal procedure offers the most economical approach for clean- ing surfaces from a commercial standpoint since less material would have to be brought to elevated tempera ⁇ tures ' thereby enabling lasers of lower average power output to be used.
  • assistive devices and procedures may be used in conjunction with the laser.
  • assist gas could be directed onto the object to blow away melted material and/or to help oxidize, or even chemically re ⁇ cute, heated material, similar to the manner used to enhance laser cutting processes.
  • One particular advantage of lasers involves the capability for focusing the coherent light of the laser beam to a very small spot. This means that power den- f "" 7 sities as great as 10 w/cm can be achieved with a laser having a continuous output of several hundred watts.
  • peak power density is an important parameter for a procedure, high average power is desirable for com- pie ing large cleaning jobs in reasonable time.
  • peak power density and pulse width are im ⁇ portant parameters can be understood from considering what happens when a surface is suddenly, almost instan ⁇ taneously heated. As heat is applied to the exterior surface of a material, that surface is simultaneously being cooled by the inward conduction of heat. Thus the rate of temperature rise at the surface depends on both the intensity of the heat source and the rate of heat conduction by the material. In the case of the removal of barnacles ' both the barnacle shell and the barnacle cement are transparent to laser beams at wavelengths of 10.6 micrometers and 1.06 micrometers.
  • the present invention may be used to remove previously applied coatings such as the anti-fouling paint referred to earlier.
  • a layer of paint or similar material has been applied to the surface of an object the characteristics of the paint or material will be important in determining the best procedure for its removal. Certain materials may require a complete heating of the thinkness of the layer which will require longer times .
  • a layer may be susceptible " to shock removal by heating the surface of the underlying material to a high temperature by means of laser beam pulses ' of a very short pulse duration at high intensity.
  • the invention may also be " used to advantage for purposes " of cleaning the interior of a ship's hull.
  • Current procedures for cleaning the " interior of the hull create airborne " matter such as dust, particulates, and vapors in the confined interior space. Cleaning personnel " are exposed to these substances.
  • the interior cleaning can be accom- plished in an efficient and an effective " manner without the degree of personnel " exposure to such materials which occurs with the current cleaning procedures such as sand ⁇ blasting.

In this way the procedure may be repeated over the full extent of the hull surface which is to be cleaned. Alternatively , the beam may travel vertically and then at the end of each vertical pass the cart is indexed horizontally a suitable increment before the next pass , this procedure being repeated until one half (side) of the ship ' s hull has been cleaned.
