  • Patent number: 10222485
    Abstract: Provided is a vehicle gate monitor including a gate on which a detector group is mounted, the detector group including: a first detector, which is arranged in a manner that allows vertical and horizontal movement, and is configured to measure radiation levels of both side surfaces of the vehicle; a second detector, which is arranged in a manner that allows vertical, rotational, and horizontal movement, and is configured to measure radiation levels of a front surface, a rear surface, an upper surface, and a cargo bed surface of the vehicle; and a third detector, which is arranged in a manner that allows vertical and horizontal movement, and is configured to measure a radiation level of an inner-side side surface of the cargo bed, the gate including a control unit configured to identify, while moving the gate with respect to a stationary vehicle, presence/absence of a contaminated place.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20180164444
    Abstract: Provided is a radioactive contamination inspection apparatus including a plastic scintillator, a light receiving element, a light guide configured to allow scintillation light emitted from the plastic scintillator to reach the light receiving element, a light shielding housing including an incidence window, and a thin film layer structure provided between the incidence window provided in the light shielding housing and the plastic scintillator, and including a protective film, a light shielding film, and a reflective film in the stated order from the incidence window side. A side surface of the light guide is made up of a diffused reflection surface. The reflective film is disposed with an air layer placed between the reflective film and the plastic scintillator. A surface of the reflective film, which faces the plastic scintillator, is made up of a specular reflection surface.
