摘要:
The present invention is related to a process for irradiation of a product pallet having four vertical faces by a photon beam such as an X-ray beam, a gamma source or similar, consisting in an irradiation procedure comprising the following steps: introducing the product pallet into an irradiation zone according to a horizontal translation movement, submitting said product pallet to said photon beam, the source of which having a vertical movement, the horizontal translation movement of the product pallet and the vertical movement of the beam resulting in the irradiation of a vertical face of said product pallet, moving out said product pallet from the irradiation zone. giving a rotation of substantially 90° to said product pallet using rotation means, repeating said irradiation process until at least the four vertical faces of said product pallet have been irradiated. The present invention is also related to an apparatus and to the use of said process or said apparatus for irradiating a product arranged on a pallet, said product being either of low or of high density.

The present invention is related to an apparatus and method for irradiating a product package, comprising a radiation source directing a radiation beam along a beam direction towards said product package, conveying means for transporting said product package past said radiation source along a transport path, and reflecting means located on at least one side of the plane formed by said beam direction and said transport path. By adjusting the distance and angle of the reflecting means to the conveyor and beam, and improved dose uniformity ratio is obtained.

The present invention is related to a method and apparatus of radiation processing of a product package in a device having a radiation source, a collimator having a variable aperture, and a turntable, said radiation processing resulting in a point in the product package where the dose is minimal (Dmin point) and a point in said product package where the dose is maximal (Dmax point) comprising the steps of: determining a first value of the collimator aperture, by increasing said aperture from a small value, where the Dmax point is located near the centre of the product package, up to a value where the Dmax point moves near to the centre of a small side of said package's rectangular horizontal cross-section; determining a second value of the collimator aperture, by further increasing the collimator aperture up to a point where the Dmin point moves from a point near the corner of the product package to the centre of said package; processing said package with radiation, the collimator aperture being kept at a constant value comprised between said first and said second value, the turntable being rotated at a variable speed.

The present invention is related to an apparatus for irradiating products conveyed on a pallet, comprising a beam source (3) for producing a radiation beam, a shielding wall (4) encompassing an irradiation chamber (2) and a revolving cylindrical door (6) having a recess (8) for holding said pallet, for bringing said pallet in and out of the irradiation chamber (2) wherein said high-energy radiation beam is directed towards a lateral side of said revolving door (6), for irradiating said pallet in said recess (8), or brought before said recess (8). The present invention is also related to a process wherein a product pallet is brought into an irradiation chamber (2) through a revolving cylindrical door (6) having a recess (8), and irradiated while in said recess (8) or in front of said recess (8).
摘要:
A shielding (11) for reducing the amount of radiation passing through the shielding comprises a first part (111) and a second part (112), wherein the first part is arranged for being withdrawn from the second part and wherein said first and second parts comprise abutments. At least one pair of corresponding abutments of said first and second parts has a transverse section which is curvilinearly shaped along a portion of at least half of said transverse section.
