A steel sheet inspection device includes: a magnetooptic element that is able to detect, as an optical property, a magnetic domain structure of a steel sheet to be inspected; a light source that irradiates the magnetooptic element with linearly polarized light; a detector that detects the linearly polarized light with a polarization plane rotated according to the magnetic domain structure of the steel sheet transferred to the magnetooptic element; and a drive mechanism that drives at least the magnetooptic element so as to contact and separate the steel sheet and the magnetooptic element with and from each other.

Steel sheet inspection device, steel sheet inspection method, and steel sheet manufacturing method

An electron gun abnormality detecting device for detecting an abnormality in first and second electron guns of a magnetic domain refining device for an electrical steel sheet includes: a magnetooptic element configured to contact with and separate from an inspection region set to include a boundary between a magnetic domain discontinuity generated by irradiation of a surface of the electrical steel sheet with an electron beam by the first electron gun and a magnetic domain discontinuity generated by irradiation thereof with an electron beam by the second electron gun, and configured to detect a steel sheet magnetic domain structure in the inspection region as an optical property; a light source configured to irradiate the magnetooptic element with linearly polarized light; and a detector configured to detect polarized light rotated by the steel sheet magnetic domain structure transferred to the magnetooptic element.
