Featuring a vehicle-mounted
radiation monitoring system: a loading vehicle (1); a lifting device which is attached to the loading vehicle (1); and
Radiation scanning monitoring devices which are rigidly attached to the lifting device and which move up and down together with the lifting device, wherein the
radiation scanning monitoring means include an accelerator which has a
radiation source (2) for generating X-rays, wherein the lifting device is designed to keep the lifting device and the radiation scanning monitoring means as a whole at a predetermined safety distance from the ground while the loading vehicle (1) is in motion, and to maintain a
minimum distance between them of less than the predetermined safety distance during monitoring, wherein the
system comprises a rotatable platform (15) which is horizontally rotatable relative to the loading vehicle (1), and a connecting plate (8) which is integrally connected to the rotatable platform (15) and extends over the rear end of the loading vehicle (1), wherein the lifting device is attached to the connecting plate (8), wherein the lifting device is attached below the connecting plate (8), wherein the lifting device has a lifting support (4) and a drive (10), wherein the lifting support (4) has at least one vertical guide cylinder (5) which is rigidly attached to the connecting plate (8) and at least one sliding rod (6), wherein each of these sliding rods (6) is slidably guided in exactly one corresponding guide cylinder (5) and is attached at a lower end to a support (7) of the lifting platform, wherein the radiation scanning monitoring means are rigidly attached to the support (7), wherein the drive has a
hydraulic cylinder (10) whose housing is attached to the connecting plate (8) and whose
piston rod is attached to the support (7), wherein the lifting device has a safety locking pin (9), which is provided on the guide cylinder (5) to lock the sliding rod (6) therein, wherein, while the vehicle-mounted
radiation monitoring system is moving on the road, the
piston rod of the
hydraulic cylinder (10) is retracted into the housing of the
hydraulic cylinder (10) and the guide cylinder (5) is locked by a safety locking pin (9) with the corresponding sliding rod (6) so that the accelerator (3) is held in a high position, wherein, while the vehicle-mounted
radiation monitoring system performs the scanning process, the safety locking pin (9) is unlocked, so that the
piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder (10) protrudes from the housing of the hydraulic cylinder (10) to move the accelerator (3) downwards and thereby lower the radiation source (2).
