[0025] In addition, side lifting motors 27 and a middle lifting motor 27' are respectively installed on both sides and the middle of the support frame 22. The lifting ends of the side lifting motors 27 and the middle lifting motors 27' are respectively installed with a side docking support 25 with a docking bar and a middle docking support 25' with four docking columns, forming a lifting and docking mechanism 5. Driven by the side lifting motors 27 and the middle lifting motors 27', the docking bars and the docking columns can pass through the corresponding shaped perforations on the roller tray 23', and after receiving the waste barrel 1, it can fall smoothly onto the rotary roller 3.

[0026] The pollution measurement unit includes a barrel top measurement unit 8 installed on the main column 9 , a barrel side measurement unit 10 , and a barrel side 1m measurement unit 12 installed on the side column 11 .

[0027] The specific structure of the barrel top measurement unit 8 is as follows Figure 4 As shown, the first vertical module 34 fixed in front of the main column 9 is equipped with a first horizontal module 33 that forms a lockable lifting and lowering movable pair therewith.

[0030] During operation, first, the waste barrel is connected before measurement, which is divided into two types: waste collection outside the factory and measurement after preparation: when collecting waste outside the factory, the connection lifting motor 27 is manually controlled through the electric control cabinet 16 to raise the connection support 25, connect the waste barrel 1, and after receiving the waste barrel 1, drive the connection lifting motor 27 to make it fall smoothly on the rotary roller 3; after preparation, the measurement is automatically connected through the roller, and the preparation system has existing roller equipment. The roller table 23 of the measuring device is manually connected to the roller of the preparation system, and the roller motor 17 drives the roller to roll, and the waste barrel 1 is transferred from the roller of the preparation system to the roller of the measuring component.

[0031] Then, the waste barrel is centered. The centering mechanism 2 centers the waste barrel according to the manually input waste barrel model. The centering motor 26 drives the centering slider 20 to move horizontally on the centering screw rod 21, and the centering guide fork 18 pushes the waste barrel to the measuring point.

[0032] Secondly, waste barrel measurements are carried out, including α / β surface contamination measurement, γ dose rate measurement and tritium surface contamination measurement. First, α / β measurement is performed on the waste barrel. The first α / β surface contamination measurement probe 29 is horizontally moved by the first horizontal module 33, and the first vertical module 34 is vertically moved to the measurement position. The second α / β surface contamination measurement probe 35 is horizontally moved by the first electric cylinder 39, and the second vertical module 46 is vertically moved to the measurement position. The waste barrel 1 is subjected to α / β measurement and reset after completion. Then, γ measurement is performed. The first γ dose rate measurement probe 31 is horizontally moved by the first horizontal module 33, and the first vertical module 34 is vertically moved to the measurement position. The second γ dose rate measurement probe 36 is horizontally moved by the second electric cylinder 40, and the second vertical module 46 is vertically moved to the measurement position. The third γ dose rate measurement probe 50 is horizontally moved by the second horizontal module 49, and the third vertical module 51 is vertically moved to the measurement position. The waste barrel 1 is subjected to γ ​​measurement and reset after completion. Finally, tritium measurement is performed on the waste barrel 1. The tritium surface contamination measurement probe 32 is horizontally moved by the first horizontal module 33, and the first vertical module 34 is vertically moved to the measurement position. The waste barrel 1 is subjected to tritium measurement and reset after completion.

[0033] Next, the measurement results of the waste bin are checked, and the measurement results are manually viewed through the touch screen 13. If the α / β measurement is interfered by γ rays and the result is abnormal, the side of the waste bin is automatically wiped, the wiping head 37 is moved horizontally by the third electric cylinder 45, and the second vertical module 49 is moved vertically to the wiping position, and the waste bin 1 is automatically wiped and reset after wiping.

[0034] Finally, the waste barrel is connected after measurement, which is divided into two types: waste collection outside the factory and measurement after preparation: when collecting waste outside the factory, the connection lifting motor 27 is manually controlled through the electric control cabinet 16 to raise the connection support 25, and the waste barrel 1 is lifted to facilitate the manual forklift to take over the waste barrel 1 and reset it after taking over; measurement after preparation is automatically connected by a clamping forklift.

[0035] The data processing module in the electric control cabinet 16 in the data processing and control unit converts the signals collected by each probe from analog signals to digital signals, and analyzes and processes them into numerical and graphical results through the industrial computer measurement software in the electric control cabinet 16 and displays them on the touch screen 13, thereby realizing the human-computer interaction function. The mobile power supply 15 is connected to the power management module in the electric control cabinet 16 to supply power to each module of the measurement component and monitor the power supply status. The electric control cabinet also has a status indicator and an emergency stop to ensure the safe operation of the measurement component.

[0036] In summary, this embodiment has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0038] 2. The rotation centering unit can realize the automatic centering positioning of the waste bin through the centering mechanism, ensuring that there will be no eccentricity problem when the waste bin is rotated subsequently.

[0039] 3. The rotating centering unit drives the circular roller to rotate through a rotating mechanism composed of a motor and gears, so that the dose rate meter on the barrel side surface and 1m away from the barrel side can automatically rotate and scan the waste barrel.

[0040] 4. The contamination measurement unit is equipped with 7 probes in total, including 2 surface α / β measurement probes for surface contact measurement, which can measure the barrel top cover and barrel side positions; 1 surface tritium contamination measurement probe for surface contact measurement, which can measure the barrel top cover position; 3 γ dose rate measurement probes, which can perform rotational scanning measurement of the γ dose rate on the waste barrel top cover, barrel side surface and 1 m from the barrel side, and can measure the barrel top cover, barrel side and 1 m from the barrel side; 1 automatic sampling device, which can wipe the barrel side position with a wiper component for surface α / β contamination measurement due to γ-ray interference, and put it into a portable contamination meter for α / β detection. At the same time, each probe can be displaced in two degrees of freedom to adapt to waste barrels of different sizes, and realize α / β surface contamination measurement, tritium surface contamination measurement, surface γ dose rate measurement, γ dose rate measurement at 1 m, and automatic wiping sampling of surface α / β measurement results with abnormal results due to γ-ray interference.

[0041] 5. The data processing module in the electric control cabinet converts the signals collected by each probe from analog signals to digital signals and integrates them into the industrial computer. Customized measurement software is used to analyze, store, display and upload the radioactive dose data of α, β, γ and tritium.

[0042] 6. The mobile measuring part is equipped with labor-saving handrails on the side and universal wheels at the bottom for easy manual transportation. At the same time, the bottom can be loaded by a forklift for easy transportation by forklift.

[0043] In addition to the above embodiments, the present invention may also have other implementations. Any technical solution formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation is included in the scope defined by the requirements of the present invention.
