Inspection device
First Claim
1. An inspection device for inspection of an object, in which the object to be inspected is moved between at least one radiation source and at least one linear detector arrangement directed at said radiation source for scanning the object, while the object is stationary, whereinthe radiation source and the linear detector arrangement are moved in parallel over the object so that the object is scanned in the direction of transport of the object and also scanned in a direction opposite to the direction of transport of the object, wherein during a first scan the object is scanned with low-energy radiation, and during a second scan the object is scanned with high-energy radiation.

Abstract
The invention relates to an inspection device for inspecting objects, particularly for explosives. The invention makes provision, particularly where space for the inspection system is tight, to use at least the available area as a scanning area, around which is arranged at least one movable radiation source at which is aimed a detector arrangement that can be moved mechanically independently of the radiation source. In this context, the radiation source and also the detector arrangement can be moved parallel to and simultaneously with one another by mechanical or electrical coupled actuators. The synchronous movement is controlled and monitored with the aid of a computer. Because of the tight space, provision is further made for the object to be scanned in the direction of and opposite to the direction of transport of the object, wherein the object is scanned once with low-energy radiation, and subsequently is scanned with high-energy radiation. The image segments thus generated are recorded separately, stored, and analyzed together.
