Publication number: 20220339310Abstract: An apparatus includes a radiation source configured to emit a radiation along an irradiation volume, and a conveyor configured to drive goods loaded in two or more transport units through the irradiation volume so as to expose a first portion of the goods to the radiation. The transport units may be loaded in totes of a tote height, and the conveyor may be configured to drive the totes. The totes may be arranged on top of one another, and each transport unit may be held in place in a tote by one or more support elements such that a total height of the totes is between 40% and 100% of the tote height, the transport units are loaded in a tote span over at least 70% of the total height, and the total height is centered relative to the tote height within about 20%.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventors: Dominique VINCENT, Frédéric DESSY, Jérémy BRISON, Frédéric STICHELBAUT

Patent number: 10271418Abstract: An electron accelerator is provided. The electron accelerator comprises a resonant cavity comprising a hollow closed conductor, an electron source configured to inject a beam of electrons, and an RF system. The electron accelerator further comprises a magnet unit, comprising a deflecting magnet. The deflecting magnet is configured to generate a magnetic field in a deflecting chamber in fluid communication with the resonant cavity by a deflecting window. The magnetic field is configured to deflect an electron beam emerging out of the resonant cavity through the deflecting window along a first radial trajectory in the mid-plane (Pm) and to redirect the electron beam into the resonant cavity through the deflecting window towards the central axis along a second radial trajectory. The deflecting magnet is composed of first and second permanent magnets positioned on either side of the mid-plane (Pm).Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2017Date of Patent: April 23, 2019Assignee: Ion Beam Applications S.A.Inventors: Michel Abs, Willem Kleeven, Jarno Van De Walle, Jérémy Brison, Denis Deschodt
