Example 1
In view of the above analysis, one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, discloses a CT detection apparatus, which includes a radiation source 1, a rotating disk 2, a detector 3, a light barrier, a transmission device and a computer. When the belt stopping operation is executed, the computer can control the conveying device to stop running immediately or continue to move forwards according to the position of the detected article until the data of the current detected article is acquired and then the belt is stopped. Therefore, the CT detection device can stop the belt as required, and the data acquisition of the detected object is not influenced.
The radiation source 1 is used for emitting an X-ray signal, the X-ray can penetrate through the inspected object 40, and the detector 3 can receive the X-ray signal and convert a photon signal of the X-ray into a digital signal which can be read by a computer system.

The rotating disk 2 can rotate at a constant speed under the driving of the rotating disk motor 80, and the radiation source 1 and the detector 3 rotate together with the rotating disk 2.
The conveying device comprises a conveyor belt 50 and a conveyor belt motor 60, the detected article 40 is placed on the conveyor belt 50, the conveyor belt 50 conveys the detected article 40 into a detection passage, and the rotating disc 2 rotates around the conveyor belt 50 at a constant speed in the process of advancing the conveyor belt 50, so that the detector 3 can acquire three-dimensional image information of the detected article 40.
The computers include a motion control computer 70 and a data processing computer 90. The detector 3 is connected to a data processing computer 90, and both the conveyor motor 60 and the turntable motor 80 are connected to a motion control computer 70.
The motion control computer 70 controls the conveyor motor 60 to move the conveyor and controls the movement of the turntable motor 80. The data processing computer 90 is used to acquire, store and process CT projection data.
In the embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of light barriers are provided, and preferably, the light barriers include a first light barrier 5, a second light barrier 6 and a third light barrier 7.
In the embodiment of the invention, the light barriers are photoelectric sensors, the light barriers are arranged above the conveyor belt 50, each set of light barriers is composed of an emitting end and a receiving end, the emitting ends and the receiving ends are distributed on two sides of the advancing direction of the conveyor belt, the emitting ends are used for emitting infrared signals, and the receiving ends are used for receiving the infrared signals.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first light barrier 5, the second light barrier 6, and the third light barrier 7 are arranged along the moving direction of the conveyor belt, and the first light barrier 5, the second light barrier 6, and the third light barrier 7 divide the conveyor belt 50 into four areas, i.e., an area a, an area B, an area C, and an area D. The area a is set as the area from the beginning of the conveyor belt to the end of the conveyor belt, the area B is the area between the first light barrier 5 and the second light barrier 6, the area C is the area between the second light barrier 6 and the third light barrier 7, and the area D is the area from the third light barrier 7 to the end of the conveyor belt.
When no object to be inspected passes over the conveyor belt 50, the infrared signal of the emitting end of the light barrier is received by the receiving end, and the level of the receiving end is set to be high level at this time. When the object to be inspected above the conveyor belt 50 passes through the light barrier, the infrared signal of the emitting end of the corresponding light barrier is shielded by the object to be inspected, so that the receiving end cannot receive the infrared signal emitted from the emitting end, and the level of the receiving end in the shielding period is changed into low level. The level of the receiving end changes from high to low due to the fact that the object to be detected is shielded by the light path of the light barrier transmitting end and the receiving end, so that the light barrier can detect the existence of the object to be detected, and the position of the object to be detected is judged.
Further, the CT detection apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention further includes an encoder 4, and the encoder 4 is configured to determine an accurate position of the detected object.

The motion control computer 70 can calculate the distance of the belt advance based on the pulse signal transmitted from the encoder 4, and can determine the position of the object to be inspected.
Specifically, the object 40 moves from the area a to the area D, and since the relative position of the light barrier and the radiographic imaging range is known, it can be determined whether the object 40 is within the radiographic imaging range or not, based on the distance between the object 40 and the light barrier. For example, the starting point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region B and is at a distance S1 from the first optical barrier, the end point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region C and is at a distance S2 from the second optical barrier 6, the time for the detected article to pass through the first optical barrier is set to t0, after the time t1 elapses, the distance for the conveyor belt to advance is obtained as S1 according to information fed back by the encoder, and accordingly, the detected article on the conveyor belt advances at a distance S1 along with the conveyor belt, and the detected article enters the radiographic imaging range.
The CT detection apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention enables the motion control computer 70 to obtain the position of the detected object 40 in real time by using the optical barrier and the encoder 4 in a matching manner, so that when the belt stopping operation is performed, the motion control computer 70 can determine whether the detected object 40 is in the imaging range of the ray, and further control the motion of the conveyor belt 50, thereby ensuring that a complete image of the detected object 40 is acquired.
Example 2
One embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, discloses a belt stop control method of a CT detection device, using the CT detection device of embodiment 1;
the tape stop control method comprises the following steps:
step 1: when the CT detection device operates at a constant speed, a safety inspector performs belt stopping operation:
under normal conditions, the CT detection device runs at a constant speed, when special conditions occur and the belt needs to be stopped, a safety inspector executes belt stopping operation, and the motion control computer receives a belt stopping instruction.
And 2, step: detecting whether the inspected article 40 is within the radiographic range:
in the embodiment of the present invention, the light barrier and the encoder 4 are used to detect whether the inspected object 40 is in the range of radiographic imaging, specifically, the method includes the following steps:
step 2.1: judging the area of the detected article according to the information fed back by the light barrier:
the first, second and third light barriers 5, 6, 7 divide the conveyor belt into four zones, zone a, zone B, zone C and zone D. When the object 40 passes through the optical barrier, the feedback level of the corresponding optical barrier changes from high level to low level, so that it can be determined that the object is in the area a, the area B, the area C or the area D. For example, when the object passes through the first optical barrier 5, the level fed back by the first optical barrier changes from high level to low level, so that it can be determined that the object enters the region B.
Step 2.2: and judging the specific position of the detected article according to the information fed back by the encoder:
in the embodiment of the invention, the encoder is connected with the conveyor belt, the advancing distance of the conveyor belt is L and the number of pulses sent by the encoder is n when the encoder rotates for each circle, so that the advancing distance of the conveyor belt is L/n when the encoder sends one pulse signal, and the motion control computer can judge the advancing distance of the conveyor belt according to the number of pulses of the encoder, thereby judging the accurate position of the detected object 40 on the conveyor belt.
Step 2.3: judging whether the inspected article 40 is within the radiographic range:
because the relative position of the light barrier and the radiographic imaging range is known, whether the detected object is in the radiographic imaging range can be judged according to the distance between the detected object and the light barrier. For example, the starting point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region B and is at a distance S1 from the first light barrier 5, the end point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region C and is at a distance S2 from the second light barrier 6, the time for the detected article to pass through the first light barrier is set to t0, after the time t1 elapses, the distance for the conveyor belt to advance is obtained as S1 according to information fed back by the encoder, and accordingly, the detected article on the conveyor belt advances at a distance S1 with the conveyor belt, and the detected article enters the radiographic imaging range.
According to the steps, whether the detected article is located in the radiographic imaging range or not when the belt stopping operation is executed is judged, if yes, the step 3 is carried out, and if not, the step 4 is carried out.
And step 3: the conveyor belt 50 continues to advance until the inspected article 40 leaves the radiographic range:
when the belt stopping operation is performed, if the detected article 40 is located in the radiographic imaging range, the conveyor belt 50 does not stop, and the operation is continued until the detected article 40 leaves the radiographic imaging range, and the image information acquisition of the detected article is finished.
Because the relative position of the light barrier and the radiographic imaging range is known, whether the detected object leaves the radiographic imaging range can be judged according to the distance between the detected object and the light barrier. For example, the starting point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region B and is at a distance S1 from the first optical barrier, the end point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region C and is at a distance S2 from the second optical barrier 6, the time for the detected article to pass through the second optical barrier 6 is set to t0, after the time t1 elapses, the distance for the conveyor belt to advance is obtained as S2 according to the information fed back by the encoder, and accordingly, the distance for the detected article on the conveyor belt to advance along with the conveyor belt is S2, the detected article leaves the radiographic imaging range, and the process proceeds to step 4.
And 4, step 4: the motion control computer controls the conveyor belt to stop running:
when the motion control computer judges that no detected article exists in the camera imaging range, the motion control computer controls the conveyor belt motor 60 to stop running, so that the conveyor belt stops running.
And 5: when the conveyer belt is started again, the conveyer belt firstly falls back for a certain distance, and then advances to detect:
in order to obtain an accurate image of a detected article, a detector collects information of the detected article only when a conveyor belt runs at a constant speed, and does not collect information in the process of acceleration or deceleration of the conveyor belt, so that when the conveyor belt is restarted, the conveyor belt needs to be firstly reversed for a certain distance, the reversed distance is the advancing distance in the process of increasing the speed of the conveyor belt from zero to the speed of the conveyor belt during constant-speed motion, and the acquired distance is calculated according to the acceleration of the conveyor belt, so that the conveyor belt is in a state of constant-speed running when the detected article enters into the collection range.
In the process of the conveyor belt falling back, the encoder rotates along with the movement of the conveyor belt, and whether the conveyor belt falls back in place or not can be judged according to the pulse signals sent by the encoder.
According to the belt stop control method of the CT detection device, the light barrier and the encoder are used for judging the specific position information of the detected object, so that the data acquisition of the detected object is not influenced in the belt stop process, and the complete image information of the detected object is ensured to be obtained.
Example 3
The embodiment of the invention discloses another tape stop control method of a CT detection device, which is an improvement of the embodiment 2 and comprises the following steps:
step 1: when the CT detection device operates at a constant speed, a safety inspector performs belt stopping operation:
under normal conditions, the CT detection device runs at a constant speed, when special conditions occur and the belt needs to be stopped, a safety inspector executes belt stopping operation, and the motion control computer receives a belt stopping instruction.
Step 2: detecting whether the inspected article 40 is within the radiographic range:
in the embodiment of the present invention, the light barrier and the encoder 4 are used to detect whether the inspected article 40 is in the range of radiographic imaging, and specifically, the method includes the following steps:
step 2.1: judging the area of the detected article according to the information fed back by the light barrier:
the first, second and third light barriers 5, 6, 7 divide the conveyor belt into four zones, zone a, zone B, zone C and zone D. When the object 40 passes through the optical barrier, the feedback level of the corresponding optical barrier changes from high level to low level, so that it can be determined that the object is in the area a, the area B, the area C or the area D. For example, when the detected article passes through the first optical barrier 5, the feedback level of the first optical barrier changes from high level to low level, so that it can be determined that the detected article enters the region B.
Step 2.2: judging the accurate position of the detected article according to the information fed back by the encoder:
in the embodiment of the invention, the encoder is connected with the conveyor belt, the advancing distance of the conveyor belt is L and the number of pulses sent by the encoder is n when the encoder rotates for each circle, so that the advancing distance of the conveyor belt is L/n when the encoder sends one pulse signal, and the motion control computer can judge the advancing distance of the conveyor belt according to the number of pulses of the encoder, thereby judging the accurate position of the detected object 40 on the conveyor belt.
Step 2.3: judging whether the inspected article 40 is within the radiographic range:
because the relative position of the light barrier and the radiographic imaging range is known, whether the detected object is in the radiographic imaging range can be judged according to the distance between the detected object and the light barrier. For example, the starting point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region B and is at a distance S1 from the first light barrier 5, the end point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region C and is at a distance S2 from the second light barrier 6, the time for the detected article to pass through the first light barrier is set to t0, after the time t1 elapses, the distance for the conveyor belt to advance is obtained as S1 according to information fed back by the encoder, and accordingly, the detected article on the conveyor belt advances at a distance S1 with the conveyor belt, and the detected article enters the radiographic imaging range.
According to the steps, whether the detected article is located in the radiographic imaging range or not when the belt stopping operation is executed is judged, if yes, the step 3 is carried out, and if not, the step 4 is carried out.
And step 3: the conveyor belt 50 continues to advance until the inspected article 40 leaves the radiographic imaging range:
when the belt stopping operation is performed, if the detected article 40 is located in the radiographic imaging range, the conveyor belt 50 does not stop, and the operation is continued until the detected article 40 leaves the radiographic imaging range, and the image information acquisition of the detected article is finished.
Because the relative position of the light barrier and the radiographic imaging range is known, whether the detected object leaves the radiographic imaging range can be judged according to the distance between the detected object and the light barrier. For example, the starting point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region B and is at a distance S1 from the first light barrier, the end point of the radiographic imaging range is located in the region C and is at a distance S2 from the second light barrier 6, the time when the detected article passes through the second light barrier 6 is set to be t0, after the time t1 elapses, the distance that the conveyor belt advances is obtained as S2 according to information fed back by the encoder, and accordingly, the distance that the detected article on the conveyor belt advances along with the conveyor belt is S2, the detected article leaves the radiographic imaging range, and the process proceeds to step 4.
And 4, step 4: the motion control computer controls the conveyor belt to stop running:
when the motion control computer judges that no detected article exists in the camera imaging range, the motion control computer controls the conveyor belt motor 60 to stop running, so that the conveyor belt stops running.
And 5: when the conveyer belt is restarted, the conveyer belt continues to move ahead, does not need to rewind:
after the security check personnel perform the start-up operation, the speed of the conveyor belt is gradually increased from zero to a constant speed during normal operation. In the process, the advancing distance of the conveyor belt in each acquisition period of the encoder 4 is unchanged, but the time of each acquisition period of the encoder 4 is reduced along with the increase of the speed of the conveyor belt, the computer can generate a displacement curve of the conveyor belt according to the displacement information acquired by the encoder and the acquired time interval, and the acquisition frequency of the detector 3 is controlled by using the displacement curve of the conveyor belt, so that the advancing distance of the conveyor belt in the interval process of acquiring data twice by the detector 3 is unchanged, and the computer can generate a CT sectional image of the detected object accelerating the distance according to the data acquired by the detector 3.
When the conveyor belt accelerates to the uniform motion during normal operation, the encoder 4 acquires data according to a fixed frequency, and the computer can splice the image of the acceleration section and the image of the uniform velocity section to form a complete image of the detected object 40, so that rewinding is not needed when the conveyor belt is restarted.
In summary, according to the CT detection apparatus and the belt stop control method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, through the cooperative use of the optical barrier and the encoder, the computer can obtain the position of the detected object in real time, so that when the belt stop operation is executed, the computer can determine whether the detected object is in the imaging range of the ray, and further control the movement of the conveyor belt, thereby ensuring that a complete image of the detected object is acquired.
The above description is only for the preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope of the present invention are included in the scope of the present invention.
