For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0028] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The embodiments will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] In order to better understand the present invention, Figure 1 to Figure 4 The radioactive material monitoring device, system and monitoring method according to the present invention are described in detail.

[0030] Please also read Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a structural block diagram of a radioactive material monitoring device provided by an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 21 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a radioactive material monitoring device provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The radioactive material monitoring device 10 includes a detector 101, a locator 102 and a control module 103. The detector 101 is connected to a first rotating mechanism 104, and can detect radioactive materials within a predetermined range from itself and generate a detection signal through the rotation setting of the first rotating mechanism 104. The locator 102 can locate the rotational orientation of the detector 101. The control module 103 is connected to the detector 101 and the locator 102 in communication, and can receive the detection signal of the detector 101 and the information of the rotational orientation of the detector 101 located by the locator 102, and judge whether the radioactive material is detected according to whether the detection signal exceeds the threshold, and determine the orientation of the detected radioactive material according to the rotational orientation. In one embodiment, the detection signal may include the radiation intensity of the radioactive material. In another embodiment, the detection signal may include the radiation intensity and the type of nuclide of the radioactive material.

[0031] In this embodiment, the detector 101 of the radioactive material monitoring device 10 rotates under the drive of the first rotating mechanism 104, and can detect radioactive materials in a predetermined range of various orientations in real time. The rotation orientation of the detector 101 can be located by the locator 102. The control module 103 determines whether there is radioactive material in the preset range according to whether the detection signal of the detector 101 exceeds the threshold, and can determine the orientation of the radioactive material detected by the detector 101 according to the rotation orientation of the detector 101 located by the locator 102. Since the detector 101 is in a continuous rotating state driven by the first rotating mechanism 102, even if the radioactive material is in a moving state and the orientation changes, the radioactive material monitoring device 10 of this embodiment can timely monitor the radioactive material and determine its orientation, thereby realizing real-time and dynamic monitoring of the radioactive material.

[0032] It should be noted that the locator 102 in this embodiment can be any device that can measure the rotation angle of the detector 1, for example, it can be an angle sensor or an encoder. The locator 102 can be arranged on the detector 101, and can also be arranged on the first rotating mechanism 104. When the locator 102 is an encoder, the locator 102 can be located at one end of the motor, and the present invention does not limit the specific setting position of the locator 102. The locator 102 can feed back the rotation azimuth signal to the control module 103 (for example, the motor drive unit 1033 therein). When there is radioactive material around the detector 101, the detection signal of the detector 101 will continue to change during the rotation detection process, and the detection signal will be enhanced at the position where the radioactive material is located. The control module 103 can determine the presence of radioactive material and the position of the radioactive material according to the change of the detection signal and the rotation azimuth information located by the locator 102.

The direction indicator 1071 is integrated on the top of the top cover 107 and can indicate the location of the radioactive material. The direction indicator 1071 indicates the location of the radioactive material, which facilitates the inspector to obtain the location of the radioactive material in real time and track it. The direction indicator 1071 can be a display screen with a display function integrated on the top of the top cover 107. In an optional implementation, after determining the location of the radioactive material, the control module 103 can control the display screen to display a mark pointing to the location of the radioactive material. In another optional implementation, after determining the location of the radioactive material, the control module 103 may control the second rotating mechanism 108 to drive the top cover 107 to rotate, so that the mark displayed on the display screen points to the location of the radioactive material.

[0035] Optionally, the radioactive material monitoring device 10 of this embodiment may further include a video capture module 1072, which is arranged on the peripheral side of the top cover 107 and can capture images of the location of the radioactive material, so as to facilitate further determination of the specific location of the radioactive material through the images of the location of the radioactive material. It is understandable that after determining the location of the radioactive material, the control module 103 can control the second rotating mechanism 108 to drive the top cover 107 to rotate, so that the video capture module 1072 rotates to the location of the radioactive material and captures the location. Through the captured images, it is convenient for inspectors to obtain environmental information about the location of the radioactive material and promptly discover suspicious persons carrying radioactive materials.

[0036] Optionally, the radioactive material monitoring device 10 of this embodiment may further include an alarm (not shown in the figure), which may be integrated into the top cover 107, and the alarm is in communication with the control module 103, and can send an alarm signal when the detector 101 detects radioactive material.

The drive control module 1091 controls the movable chassis 105 to drive the radioactive material monitoring device 10 to move according to the path planned by the navigation module 1092, so as to track the radioactive material. During the process of the radioactive material monitoring device 10 following the movement of the radioactive material, if no radioactive material is detected, the control module 3 can be used to control the radioactive material monitoring device 10 to turn off the following mode and control the radioactive material monitoring device 10 to return to the set position, which can be, for example, the initial position of the radioactive material monitoring device 10.

[0038] Optionally, the radioactive material monitoring device 10 may further include a second shell 110, which is a cylindrical structure with a storage space, one end of the second shell 110 is connected to the movable chassis 105, and the other end is connected to the first shell 106.

[0041] The specific use process of the above-mentioned radioactive material monitoring device 10 is as follows:

[0042] First, place the radioactive material monitoring device 10 on the monitoring channel, turn it on and perform self-test to obtain the current configuration information. After that, the radioactive material monitoring device 10 starts working, the detector 101 starts to rotate, and continuously monitors whether there is radioactive material within the predetermined range.

[0044] Since the embodiment of the present invention includes the radioactive substance monitoring device 10 of the above embodiment, it has the same beneficial effects as the radioactive substance monitoring device 10 of the above embodiment, which will not be described in detail herein.

[0045] The present invention also provides an embodiment of a method for monitoring radioactive substances, please continue to refer to Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 1 is a flow chart of a radioactive material monitoring method provided by an embodiment of the present invention.
