下面将参照附图 1和 2对作为本发明的一个示例性实施例的车辆检查设备的结构 和工作过程进行详细说明。 :
本发明的车辆快速检査设备包括供诸如载有集装箱之类的受检査移动目标通过 的通道 14、 其内安装有扫描成像装置的辐射源舱体 9、 用于检测车辆驶入通道中的快 速响应光幕开关 2和地感线圈 3、 用于测量车辆的移动速度的测速雷达 7和控制室 (未 示出)。 快速响应光幕开关 2安装在通道两侧的安装立柱上, 地感线圈 3埋设于通道入 口 (附图 2的右侧附近) 的地表下面作为车辆入口的第一个开关, 这两个装置结合使 用, 用于判别受检查移动目标的是否进入所述通道并对已进入通道的车辆通过第一计 数器进行计数。该第一计数器可以设置在快速响应光幕开关 2和 /或地感线圈 3中, 也可 以设置在控制室中。 测速雷达 7用于测量受检査移动目标的移动速度, 在本实施例中 可以安装在辐射源舱体 9靠近通道的外墙上。 控制室与所述辐射源、 快速响应光幕开 关 2和地感线圈 3、 测速雷达 7电连通, 使快速响应光幕开关 2和地感线圈 3、 测速雷达 7 的检测信号输送到控制室, 控制室设有安装有控制软件的控制单元, 能够根据从快速 响应光幕幵关 2和地感线圈 3接收的有关车辆进入所述通道的检测信号控制测速雷达 7 对车辆的移动速度进行检测, 并根据测速雷达 7的测量结果控制扫描成像装置采用与 车辆的速度相对应的扫描频率对车辆进行检査。 当所检测的车辆的移动速度较快时扫 描频率较高, 而当所检测的车辆的移动速度较慢时, 扫描频率较低, 这样可以确保图 像不变形。
参看图 1和 2, 车辆快速检査设备还包括光电开关 10和光幕开关 5, 用于判断所述 车辆的类型, 并且所述控制单元根据所述判断结果控制辐射源的触发条件, 例如发出 辐射束的时间。 快速响应光幕开关 5安装在通道两侧的辐射源舱体 9的墙壁和探测器臂 12上, 光电幵关 10安装在通道两侧的防护墙 11上。
在一种利用光电开关 10和光幕开关 5判断所述车辆类型的实施例中, 控制单元 中存有集装箱卡车、 箱式货车、 客车的特征信息和轮廓信息。 光幕开关 5例如由分别 安装在通道两侧的发射器和接收器两部分组成。 控制单元能够根据车辆的某个显著特 征或车辆的部分轮廓特征快速判别车辆类型。 当移动目标驶入通道 14 中的检测区域 时, 光电开关 10有效, 于是控制单元启动光幕开关 5开始工作。 光幕开关 5的发射 器发出一定数量的光束射向接受器, 接收器有相应数量的传感器接收发射器发出的光 束。 根据光束被遮挡的情况可以探测到车辆外形的髙度信息。 随着车辆的行进, 光幕 开关 5不断检测车辆的高度信息并传给控制单元。 控制单元将光幕开关 5的接收器传 来的信息还原成车辆外形轮廓, 并将测量得到的车辆信息和控制器中存有的车辆信息 进行比对, 进而区分出车辆类型。
车辆快速检査设备还包括^ «I响应光幕开关 6和埋设于通道的地表下偏向于出口 方向的地感线圈 8, 用于判别受检査车辆是否离开所述通道并对驶出通道内的受检査 车辆通过第二计数器进行计数。 该第二计数器可以设置在快速响应光幕开关 6和 /或地 感线圈 8中, 也可以设置在控制室中。
扫描成像装置可以包 '括:辐射源, 用于发射辐射束以对诸如车辆之类的受检査移 动目标进行扫描, 该辐射源在可控制单元的控制下, 根据测速雷达 7所测量的车辆的 速度调整辐射束的频率, 进而控制对车辆的扫描频率; 探测器, 用于接收从受检查移 动目标透射的辐射束; 成像装置, 根据探测 所探测到的从受检查移动目标透射的辐 射束进行成像; 和辐射防护装置, 用于保证设备周边的辐射束的量限定在允许范围之 内, 从而保护有可能靠近设备周围的工作人员免受辐射束的伤害。 进一步地, 该辐射 防护装置是设置在通道两侧的可以阻止辐射线穿透的防护墙 4、 11。

控制单元的控制软件由五部分组成, 分别是系统管理模块、 通道车辆计数模块、 司机自动识别和避让模块、 软件看门狗模块、 异常情况处理模块。 系统管理模块负责 协调各模块的工作、 与外部的通讯、 控制外部设备。 车辆计数模块可以包括第一计数 器和第二计数器, 以能正确识别进入车辆、 驶出车辆的数量, 并由此计算通道内的车 辆数, 通道内的车辆数是系统管理模块进行控制的重要依据。 司机自动识别和避让模 块用于判别车辆的位置和车辆的类型, 该模块能正确识别集装箱卡车和封闭式货车, 并由系统管理模块根据不同的车型进行不同的扫描控制。 司机自动识别和避让模块中 内嵌安全联锁程序, 在司机通过扫描区域时能监测辐射源工作状态, 能确保司乘人员 的安全。软件看门狗模块用于避免系统进入异常状态,或与实际情况不相吻合的状态。 异常情况处理模块包括报警、 应急情况处理、 人员干预等, 用于处理异常情况。
在本发明的上述实施例中,描述了分别用于检测车辆的驶入或者驶出的快速响应 光幕开关 2、 5、 6和地感线圈 3、 8, 但本发明并不局限于此, 比如, 可以使用光幕开 关和地感线圈中的其中之一检测车辆的驶入和驶出。 需要说明的是, 根据地感线圈的 特性, 仅当在检査通道 14内移动的移动目标与地感线圈的接触面积达到一定程度时, 地感线圈才产生检测到移动目标的信号 (肯定信号)。
进一步地, 光幕开关 2、 5、 6也可以由传统的光电检测器代替。 可供选择地, 地 感线圈 3、 8 也可以由光电检测器、 压电检测器、 超声波传感器、 微波传感器、 压力 传感器中的至少一种代替。
参见图 3, 根据另一方面, 本发明还提供一种对移动目标进行快速成像检査的方 法, 包括下面的步骤: 开始检查步骤; (S1 ) 判断诸如车辆之类的移动目标是否进入 通道(S2) , 如果判断到移动目标进入通道, 则启动扫描成像装置开始检査程序(S3 ); 判断移动目标的移动速度 (S4 ) , 根据所述移动速度确定扫描成像装置检测的扫描频 率, 从而进行与移动速度相对应的检査 (S5)。
上述方法还包括判断移动目标的类型(S6), 比如判别移动目标是集装箱卡车还 是封闭货车, 并根据所述类型进行预定类型的检査 (S7), 即根据不同车型采用不同 扫描触发条件。 例如, 若此时的移动目标是封闭货车则立即出束进行扫描, 如果是集 装箱卡车, 则延迟一定的时间, 待车辆的车头部分驶出检査区域而集装箱到达检査区 域时进行扫描检查。
上述方法还包括判断移动目标是否离开通道并对离开所述通道的移动目标进行 计数 (S8 ), 其中判断移动目标是否进入通道包括对进入所述通道的移动目标进行计 数, 并且比较离开所述通道的移动目标的计数和进入所述通道的移动目标的计数, 当 离幵所述通道的移动目标的计数和进入所述通道的移动目标的计数相等时, 暂停发出 辐射束 (S9)。 如果还有其它移动目标就继续检査, 否则暂停检査。
更详细的, 本发明的工作过程如下- 在通道内车辆数为 0时系统处于待机状态, 当一辆车 1A向通道驶来吋,地感线圈 3首先有效, 并结合快速响应光幕开关 2完成对车辆进入通道和行驶方向的判别, 若车 辆驶入通道则使表示通道内车辆数目的第一计数器的计数值加 1, 测速雷达 7对车辆行 驶速度进行测量, 系统进入就绪状态。 车辆继续向前行驶, 系统全程记录车辆在通道 行使过程中的状态变化。 当车辆以正常速度由 1A经 1B到 1C时, 光电幵关 10有效, 此 时通过光幕开关 5的检测结果由控制单元判别被检车辆是集装箱卡车还是封闭货车, 并根据不同车型釆用不同扫描触发条件。 若此时的车辆是封闭货车则立即出束进行扫 描, 如果是集装箱卡车, 则延迟一定的时间, 待车辆的车头部分驶出检查区域而集装 箱到达检查区域时进行扫描检査。 扫描的脉冲频率是由实时测速雷达 7对车辆实时测 速得到的, 实时测速雷达 7的输出频率会根据车辆行驶速度的变化而改变。 在驾驶室 通过扫描区域时, 控制单元实时监测辐射源的工作状态, 确保辐射源不会误出束。 当 车辆行驶出扫描通道时, 则使表示通道内车辆的第二计数器的计数值加 1。 只要第二 计数器的计数值和第一计数器的值不相等, 检査设备的扫描成像装置就保持在扫描状 态; 当二者相等时, 扫描成像装置进入待机状态。
值得说明的是, 按照本发明的技术方案, 将上述实施例中的技术特征, 其中测速 方法中的测速雷达 7可以作以下技术特征等同替换, 例如利用间隔一定距离光电开关 或光幕开关进行测速。 总之这些技术特征的替换釆取的是本领域技术人员公知技术所 形成的技术方案均应属于本发明的保护范围。
