Abstract: An X-ray inspection device is configured to prevent water from flowing into areas of the X-ray inspection device during a washing operation. The X-ray inspection device is provided with an X-ray emitter, a cooler, a cooler cover, and an opening/closing member. The cooler cools the X-ray emitter. The cooler cover covers the cooler. Openings are formed in the cooler cover and, when open, provide interior-exterior air flow communication when the cooler is cooling the X-ray inspection device. An opening/closing member is configured for movement between an open orientation opening the opening and a closed orientation closing the openings formed in the cooler cover.

Abstract: A measuring apparatus includes a measuring conveyor measuring a weight of an article during transportation, a feed conveyor, a discharge conveyor, and a central conveyor extending in a transporting direction through the measuring conveyor. In a first transfer area where the article is transferred from the feed conveyor to the measuring conveyor and in a second transfer area where the article is transferred from the measuring conveyor to the discharge conveyor, level portions of a transporting surface of the central conveyor are located at the same level as that of the measuring conveyor. In a measuring area where the measuring conveyor is located, the lower portion of the transporting surface of the central conveyor is shifted downward from that of the measuring conveyor. The measuring apparatus can stably transport the article, suppress vibrations during transfer to and from a measuring conveyor, and improve the measuring accuracy.
