如图2中所示,根据本实用新型的检查系统也可以仅仅包括CT装置。As shown in FIG. 2 , the inspection system according to the present invention may also only include a CT device.

如图3-4所示,用于CT装置的探测装置10包括:多排探测器,其中相邻两排所述检测器之间具有预定的间隔。所述多排探测器可以排列成具有大体圆柱面形的表面。多排探测器可以采用本领域公知的任何合适的布置结构,只要相邻两排所述检测器之间具有预定的间隔。As shown in FIGS. 3-4 , the detecting device 10 for a CT device includes: multiple rows of detectors, wherein there is a predetermined interval between the detectors in two adjacent rows. The plurality of rows of detectors may be arranged to have a generally cylindrical surface. The multi-row detectors may adopt any suitable arrangement known in the art, as long as there is a predetermined interval between the detectors in two adjacent rows.

图4中的t表示相邻两排探测器沿图1中的传送带6的传送方向上的中心距离,d表示探测器沿图1中的传送带6的传送方向上的宽度。所述间距为t与d的差值。t in FIG. 4 represents the center distance between two adjacent rows of detectors along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 6 in FIG. 1 , and d represents the width of the detectors along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 6 in FIG. 1 . The distance is the difference between t and d.

根据本实用新型的探测装置10的探测器中相邻两排探测器的中心距离t>>d,从而有效降低了晶体面积,降低了成本。对比于单排的探测器,会成倍的提高检测速度。显而易见,这样做降低了空间分辨率,但考虑到对于不同的需要,例如爆炸物探测,空间分辨率要求较低,因为小于一定尺度的爆炸物一般不构成威胁,也是法律所允许的。In the detector of the detection device 10 according to the present invention, the center distance t>>d of two adjacent rows of detectors effectively reduces the crystal area and reduces the cost. Compared with single-row detectors, the detection speed will be doubled. Obviously, this reduces the spatial resolution, but considering that for different needs, such as explosive detection, the spatial resolution requirements are lower, because explosives smaller than a certain scale generally do not pose a threat, which is also allowed by law.

根据本实用新型的一个示例,所述预定间距可以是5至80mm。According to an example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 5 to 80 mm.

根据本实用新型的另一个示例,所述预定间距可以是10至70mm。According to another example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 10 to 70 mm.

根据本实用新型的又一个示例,所述预定间距可以是20至60mm。According to yet another example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 20 to 60 mm.

根据本实用新型的再一个示例,所述预定间距是30至50mm。According to another example of the present invention, the predetermined distance is 30 to 50 mm.

根据本实用新型的进一步的一个示例,所述预定间距可以是35至45mm。According to a further example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 35 to 45 mm.

根据本实用新型的再一个示例,所述预定间距可以是36至40mm,或者38mm。According to yet another example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 36 to 40 mm, or 38 mm.

所述预定间距可以根据需要采用不同的间距,例如对于爆炸物,在探测器的宽度d为2mm时,如果间距为38mm,爆炸物一般不构成威胁,也是法律所允许的。此外对于刀、枪等也可以根据实际情况和法律要求相应地确定探测器的间距。The predetermined spacing can be different according to needs. For example, for explosives, when the width d of the detector is 2mm, if the spacing is 38mm, the explosives generally do not pose a threat, which is also allowed by law. In addition, for knives, guns, etc., the distance between the detectors can also be determined accordingly according to the actual situation and legal requirements.

一般探测器的宽度d为1-10mm。本实用新型也可以采用中心距离来限定多排探测器的排列,例如,根据本实用新型的一个示例,所述中心距离可以是15至65mm。根据本实用新型的另一个示例,所述预定间距可以是25至55mm。Generally, the width d of the detector is 1-10mm. The present invention may also use a center distance to define the arrangement of multiple rows of detectors. For example, according to an example of the present invention, the center distance may be 15 to 65 mm. According to another example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 25 to 55 mm.

根据本实用新型的又一个示例,所述预定间距可以是35至45mm。根据本实用新型的再一个示例,所述预定间距可以是40mm。According to yet another example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 35 to 45 mm. According to yet another example of the present invention, the predetermined distance may be 40mm.

根据本实用新型的探测器布置可以应用于各种探测器,例如闪烁体探测器等。下面以闪烁体探测器为例,说明本实用新型的探测器的结构。The detector arrangement according to the present invention can be applied to various detectors, such as scintillator detectors and the like. The scintillator detector is taken as an example below to illustrate the structure of the detector of the present invention.

如图5-8所示,闪烁体探测器包括:闪烁晶体;光电二极管;以及前置放大器电路。X射线照射到闪烁晶体后,闪烁晶体发出可见光,该可见光由光电二极管转换成电信号。电信号再经过放大器后传到后端电路进行处理。As shown in Figures 5-8, the scintillator detector includes: a scintillation crystal; a photodiode; and a preamplifier circuit. After X-rays irradiate the scintillation crystal, the scintillation crystal emits visible light, which is converted into an electrical signal by a photodiode. After passing through the amplifier, the electrical signal is transmitted to the back-end circuit for processing.

通常,考虑到工艺以及成本等问题,晶体的尺寸一般都很小,大尺寸的探测器一般都由小的模块拼接起来实现,既降低了成本也便于维护。Usually, considering issues such as process and cost, the size of the crystal is generally very small, and large-sized detectors are generally realized by splicing small modules, which not only reduces the cost but also facilitates maintenance.

图5-7示出了一个探测器模块。如图8中所示,多个模块拼接在一起成为单排探测器,单排探测器可排列成直线或弧形。Figures 5-7 illustrate a detector module. As shown in Figure 8, multiple modules are spliced together to form a single row of detectors, and the single row of detectors can be arranged in a straight line or in an arc.

通过增加相邻两排探测器之间间距的方式,来增加探测器的有效宽度。考虑到危险品检测对空间分辨率需求,相邻两排探测器之间的间距可以设置到80mm。此外,在检查尺寸比较大的物体的情况下,相邻两排探测器之间的间距可以设置为更大的尺寸,例如大于80mm。相邻两排探测器之间的间距可以根据实际情况进行选择。另外,根据实际使用中对速度的需求以及成本的控制,来选择使用探测器的排数。The effective width of the detector is increased by increasing the distance between two adjacent rows of detectors. Considering the spatial resolution requirements for dangerous goods detection, the distance between two adjacent rows of detectors can be set to 80mm. In addition, in the case of inspecting a relatively large object, the distance between two adjacent rows of detectors can be set to a larger size, such as greater than 80mm. The distance between two adjacent rows of detectors can be selected according to actual conditions. In addition, the number of rows of detectors to be used is selected according to the demand for speed and cost control in actual use.

根据本实用新型的探测器可以进行各种扫描,例如该探测器可用于圆轨道扫描,该探测器可用于常规的螺旋轨道扫描,以及该探测器可用于满足特定条件的螺旋轨道扫描。The detector according to the present invention can perform various scans, for example, the detector can be used for circular orbit scanning, the detector can be used for conventional spiral orbit scanning, and the detector can be used for spiral orbit scanning satisfying specific conditions.

下面参照图9作为示例,描述本实用新型的一种扫描方式。Referring to FIG. 9 as an example, a scanning mode of the present invention will be described below.

设计相邻两排探测器之间的间距为t,共有N排,滑环的转速为r0,传送带的速度为s,则可设计满足如下关系的扫描方式:Design the distance between two adjacent rows of detectors to be t, there are N rows in total, the speed of the slip ring is r 0 , and the speed of the conveyor belt is s, then a scanning method that satisfies the following relationship can be designed:

11 NN rr 00 == tt sthe s

在滑环每旋转360度的检查区域中,每排探测器检查该区域的360度/N的扇形部分,同时滑环每旋转360度/N,传送装置将物体移动的距离为相邻两排探测器的中心距,由此从所述N排探测器中的传送装置移动方向的上游侧的第一排探测器开始依次到最后一排探测器分别检测对应的360度/N。In the inspection area where the slip ring rotates every 360 degrees, each row of detectors inspects the 360-degree/N fan-shaped part of the area, and at the same time, every time the slip ring rotates 360 degrees/N, the distance that the conveyor moves the object is two adjacent rows The center-to-center distance of the detectors respectively detects corresponding 360 degrees/N from the first row of detectors on the upstream side of the moving direction of the conveying device in the N rows of detectors to the last row of detectors.

设第1排探测器的初始位置为T0,则第2排为T0-t,第3排为T0-2t,依次类推。Suppose the initial position of the first row of detectors is T 0 , then the second row is T 0 -t, the third row is T 0 -2t, and so on.

则由上关系式易得,当滑环(即探测器)转动1/N圈时,探测器在轴向行走了距离t,所以此时探测器的位置变为第1排T0+t,第2排为T0,第3排为T0-t,依次类推。此时,第n+1排探测器落于与转动前的第n排探测器的同一轴向位置,角度相差

Figure Y20072017387200092
由此可知,当滑环转动一整圈后,N排探测器刚好排满T0到T0+t范围内的2π角度。Then it is easy to get from the above relational expression, when the slip ring (that is, the detector) rotates 1/N circle, the detector travels a distance t in the axial direction, so the position of the detector becomes the first row T 0 +t at this time, The second row is T 0 , the third row is T 0 -t, and so on. At this time, the n+1th row of detectors is located at the same axial position as the nth row of detectors before the rotation, and the angle difference is
Figure Y20072017387200092
It can be seen from this that when the slip ring rotates a full circle, the N rows of detectors just fill the 2π angle within the range from T 0 to T 0 +t.

下面将说明具体扫描步骤:The specific scanning steps are described below:

1、设定滑环旋转速度为r0(r/s),设定传送带的速度为s(m/s),并使两者满足关系 s r 0 = Nt . 其中t(m)为相邻两排探测器间隔,N为探测器排数。1. Set the rotation speed of the slip ring as r 0 (r/s), set the speed of the conveyor belt as s (m/s), and make the two satisfy the relationship the s r 0 = Nt . Where t(m) is the distance between two adjacent rows of detectors, and N is the number of detector rows.

2、启动控制电机使滑环和传送带按照上述设定速度匀速运动。2. Start the control motor to make the slip ring and the conveyor belt move at a constant speed according to the above-mentioned setting speed.

3、当滑环转动到某一角度时,我们假设为0度,控制X射线源发出X射线,并启动探测器进行数据采集。为表述清楚,我们假设以第一排探测器为基准,但不局限于此。此时第一排探测器相对于传送带位置为T0,相应的第二排位于T0-t,第N排位于T0-(N-1)t。3. When the slip ring rotates to a certain angle, we assume it is 0 degrees, control the X-ray source to emit X-rays, and start the detector to collect data. For the sake of clarity, we assume that the first row of detectors is used as a benchmark, but it is not limited to this. At this time, the position of the first row of detectors relative to the conveyor belt is T 0 , the corresponding second row is located at T 0 -t, and the Nth row is located at T 0 -(N-1)t.

4、滑环从0度旋转到

度,对该区间数据进行连续采集。由于转速和传送带速度满足 s r 0 = Nt 关系,此时传送带运行距离为t。则第一排探测器采集的数据范围是,角度方向采集

度,传送带运动方向范围为T0到T0+t的数据。此时,第一排探测器位于T0+t位置,第二排则位于T0位置,依次类推,第N排位于T0-(N-2)t4. The slip ring rotates from 0 degrees to
Figure Y20072017387200102
The interval data is collected continuously. Due to the rotational speed and conveyor belt speed satisfying the s r 0 = Nt Relationship, at this time the conveyor belt running distance is t. Then the range of data collected by the first row of detectors is, angle and direction collection
Figure Y20072017387200104
degrees, the data of the moving direction of the conveyor belt in the range of T 0 to T 0 +t. At this time, the first row of detectors is located at T 0 +t, the second row is located at T 0 , and so on, and the Nth row is located at T 0 -(N-2)t

5、滑环从

Figure Y20072017387200105
度转动到
Figure Y20072017387200106
度,对该区间数据进行连续采集。由步骤4易知第二排探测器采集的范围是,角度方向采集集度,传送带运动方向范围为T0到T0+t的数据。此时,第一排探测器位于T0+2t位置,第二排则位于T0+t位置,依次类推,第N排位于T0-(N-3)t。5. Slip ring from
Figure Y20072017387200105
degrees to
Figure Y20072017387200106
The interval data is collected continuously. From step 4, it is easy to know that the collection range of the second row of detectors is the angle direction collection set degrees, the data of the moving direction of the conveyor belt in the range of T 0 to T 0 +t. At this time, the first row of detectors is located at T 0 +2t, the second row is located at T 0 +t, and so on, and the Nth row is located at T 0 -(N-3)t.

6、类似步骤4和步骤5,滑环连续旋转,当第N-1排探测器采集完 360 N × ( N - 2 ) - 360 N × ( N - 1 ) 度,T0到T0+t范围内数据时,第N排探测器则位于T0位置。6. Similar to steps 4 and 5, the slip ring rotates continuously. When the N-1 row of detectors finishes collecting 360 N × ( N - 2 ) - 360 N × ( N - 1 ) When the data ranges from T 0 to T 0 +t, the Nth row of detectors is located at T 0 .

7、当第N排探测器采集完 360 N × ( N - 1 ) - 360 N × N 度,T0到T0+t范围内数据时,则完成一个周期的数据采集。7. When the Nth row of detectors finishes collecting 360 N × ( N - 1 ) - 360 N × N When the data is within the range of T 0 to T 0 +t, one cycle of data acquisition is completed.

8、由步骤4-7可知,我们使用N排探测器,采集到了T0到T0+t范围内的0-360度的数据(下图为N=4时采集数据范围示意图)。通过对这组数据进行断层重建,即可得到T0到T0+t范围内的断层图像。8. It can be seen from steps 4-7 that we use N rows of detectors to collect data of 0-360 degrees in the range from T 0 to T 0 +t (the following figure is a schematic diagram of the range of data collected when N=4). By performing tomographic reconstruction on this set of data, a tomographic image in the range from T 0 to T 0 +t can be obtained.

9、由于滑环和传送带的连续运转,可知步骤4-7在不断连续的进行,从而能够得到被检物在各个不同位置的断层图像。9. Due to the continuous operation of the slip ring and the conveyor belt, it can be seen that steps 4-7 are continuously carried out, so that the tomographic images of the inspected object at different positions can be obtained.

下面参照图9再以4排探测器为实例,说明本实用新型的扫描方式。Below with reference to Fig. 9 again take 4 rows of detectors as an example, illustrate the scanning mode of the present utility model.

每排探测器分别扫描360范围内的360/4=90度,取探测器间距t=40mm。Each row of detectors scans 360/4=90 degrees within a range of 360 degrees, and the distance between detectors is t=40mm.

滑环转速为1.5r/s,则可计算扫描速度为:The speed of the slip ring is 1.5r/s, then the scanning speed can be calculated as:

s=Nr0ts=Nr 0 t

s=4×1.5×0.04=0.24m/s。s=4×1.5×0.04=0.24m/s.

该数据可由考虑锥角效应的扇束重建算法进行重建。This data can be reconstructed by a fan-beam reconstruction algorithm that considers the cone angle effect.

当源到探测器距离为1000mm时,最大锥角:

Figure Y20072017387200112
小于经验中圆轨道锥束重建的极限锥角5度,不会造成严重的重建伪影。按照正常的螺旋扫描重建方法,探测器的有效宽度为120mm。等效到中心处为60mm(λ=2)。如果滑环以1.5r/s的速度旋转,2倍螺距来计算。其中2倍螺距为目前已知的螺旋重建算法中能够重建的最大螺距。When the distance from the source to the detector is 1000mm, the maximum cone angle:
Figure Y20072017387200112
The cone angle is 5 degrees smaller than the limit cone beam reconstruction of the circular orbit in experience, and will not cause serious reconstruction artifacts. According to the normal helical scanning reconstruction method, the effective width of the detector is 120mm. Equivalent to 60mm at the center (λ=2). If the slip ring rotates at a speed of 1.5r/s, it is calculated by 2 times the pitch. Among them, 2 times the pitch is the maximum pitch that can be reconstructed in the currently known spiral reconstruction algorithm.

SS == pp rr 00 qq λλ == 22 ** 1.51.5 ** 120120 mmmm 22 == 0.180.18 (( mm // sthe s ))

设探测器有效宽度为q(mm),放大比为λ(λ>1),滑环转速为r0(r/s),螺距为p,则传送带的速S可按如下公式计算。Assuming that the effective width of the detector is q (mm), the amplification ratio is λ (λ>1), the rotation speed of the slip ring is r 0 (r/s), and the pitch is p, then the speed S of the conveyor belt can be calculated according to the following formula.

综上可知,该扫描方法能够有效提高扫描速度。In summary, the scanning method can effectively improve the scanning speed.

所述CT装置和所述用于获得二维图像的扫描成像装置同时运行的速度可以为0.18-0.25m/s。The speed at which the CT device and the scanning imaging device for obtaining two-dimensional images run simultaneously may be 0.18-0.25 m/s.

对于图1-2中所示的CT装置,如果滑环速度采用1.5r/s,射线源9的焦点到滑环中心距离为500mm,射线源9的焦点到探测器距离为1000mm,则放大比为:λ=1000/500=2。For the CT device shown in Figure 1-2, if the slip ring speed is 1.5r/s, the distance from the focus of the ray source 9 to the center of the slip ring is 500mm, and the distance from the focus of the ray source 9 to the detector is 1000mm, the magnification ratio It is: λ=1000/500=2.

如果采用四排探测器,探测器晶体尺寸d为2mm,相邻两排中心距t为40mm,则整个探测器宽度为q=120mm,采用2倍螺距进行重建,可得到皮带的传送速度:If four rows of detectors are used, the detector crystal size d is 2mm, and the center-to-center distance t between two adjacent rows is 40mm, then the entire detector width is q=120mm, and 2 times the pitch is used for reconstruction, and the transmission speed of the belt can be obtained:

S=P*r0*(q/λ)=2*1.5*(0.120/2)=0.18m/sS=P*r 0 *(q/λ)=2*1.5*(0.120/2)=0.18m/s

其中:“螺距”是螺旋轨道的一个重要参数,文献中螺距的定义有多种,本论文中螺距P定义为螺旋轨道相邻两圈的距离与探测器缩放到旋转中心后的高度之比。探测器有效宽度为q(mm),放大比为λ(λ>1),滑环转速为r0Among them: "pitch" is an important parameter of the spiral orbit. There are many definitions of the pitch in the literature. In this paper, the pitch P is defined as the ratio of the distance between two adjacent turns of the spiral orbit to the height of the detector scaled to the center of rotation. The effective width of the detector is q (mm), the amplification ratio is λ (λ>1), and the rotation speed of the slip ring is r 0 .

在目前大多数商业用检查系统中,CT装置和用于获得二维图像的扫描成像装置由于扫描成像速度差异较大,不可能同时使用。一般的流程是当DR检测出有可疑物时,再使用CT进行扫描。这样无疑增加了系统的漏报率。采用本实用新型的CT装置,实现了CT装置的高速扫描成像,使CT装置和用于获得二维图像的扫描成像装置同时使用成为可能,从而弥补了互相之间的不足。In most current commercial inspection systems, CT devices and scanning imaging devices for obtaining two-dimensional images cannot be used at the same time due to the large difference in scanning and imaging speeds. The general process is to use CT to scan when DR detects suspicious objects. This will undoubtedly increase the false negative rate of the system. Adopting the CT device of the utility model realizes the high-speed scanning imaging of the CT device, and makes it possible to use the CT device and the scanning imaging device for obtaining two-dimensional images at the same time, thereby making up for the mutual deficiency.

此时,在Z方向(水平方向)的分辨率为20mm,XY方向(竖直平面)分辨率高于10mm,考虑到各种可能的放置方法,可检测的最小体积约为10cm3。常见的爆炸物密度在1.5-1.9g/cm3之间,可检测到20g的最小爆炸物。由于系统噪声等影响,系统实测可检测最小爆炸物为50克。At this time, the resolution in the Z direction (horizontal direction) is 20 mm, and the resolution in the XY direction (vertical plane) is higher than 10 mm. Considering various possible placement methods, the minimum detectable volume is about 10 cm 3 . The density of common explosives is between 1.5-1.9g/cm 3 , and the smallest explosive of 20g can be detected. Due to the influence of system noise, etc., the minimum explosive that the system can detect is 50 grams.
