Method and device of irradiation of logs with x-ray as a phytosanitary treatment
First Claim
1. A method of conducting irradiation with X-rays as a phytosanitary treatment, comprising:
- connecting a traction device and a goods carrying vehicle outside a shielding door;
opening the shielding door;
pulling the vehicle into an irradiation treatment tunnel by the traction device;
closing the shielding door subsequent to entry of the vehicle into the irradiation treatment tunnel;
upon the vehicle reaching an irradiation region, generating X-rays by accelerators;
pulling the vehicle by the traction device so that the vehicle passes through the irradiation region to realize irradiation treatment of the whole vehicle;
subsequent to the irradiation treatment of the whole vehicle, stopping the generation of the X-rays; and
subsequent to stopping the generation of the X-rays;
opening the shielding door;
pulling the vehicle away from the irradiation treatment tunnel by the traction device; and
disconnecting the traction device from the vehicle;
wherein the accelerators are a plurality of accelerators arranged symmetrically at opposite sides and at a top of the irradiation region in the tunnel with respect to a cross section that is perpendicular to a direction in which the vehicle is pulled through the tunnel.

Abstract
A method for conducting irradiation of all logs of a whole vehicle with X-rays as a phytosanitary treatment may include: connecting a traction device and a goods carrying vehicle outside a shielding door; opening the door; the traction device pulling the vehicle into a tunnel; closing the shielding door; upon the vehicle reaching an irradiation region, accelerators generating X-rays; the traction device pulling the vehicle to pass through the irradiation region; stopping the X-rays; opening the door; the traction device pulling the vehicle away from the irradiation treatment tunnel; and disconnecting the traction device from the vehicle. A device may include a shielding structure, a tunnel formed therethrough; a rail along the tunnel; accelerators within the tunnel; and a traction device for pulling a vehicle carrying goods for quarantine treatment, the accelerators symmetrically arranged at both sides of and on the top of an irradiation region in the tunnel.

23. A method of conducting irradiation with X-rays as a phytosanitary treatment, comprising:
-
pulling, by the traction device, a vehicle through an irradiation treatment tunnel formed within a shielding structure; upon the vehicle reaching an irradiation region within the tunnel, generating X-rays by accelerators; and pulling, by the traction device, the vehicle through the irradiation region to realize irradiation treatment of the whole vehicle; wherein the accelerators include a plurality of accelerators symmetrically arranged at opposite sides and at a top of the irradiation region with respect to a cross section that is perpendicular to a direction in which the vehicle is pulled within the tunnel.
