Abstract

Disclosed is a relocatable vehicle inspection system. The relocatable vehicle inspection system includes a radiation source for radiating radials; a detection array for receiving the radials from the radiation source, so that an image of the cargo on the vehicle to be inspected may be obtained; a moving device on which the radiation source and the detection array are disposed; and a ramp-platform device. The ramp-platform device includes first and second intermediate parts (6a, 6b); first, second, third and fourth ramp parts (4a1, 4a2, 4b1, 4b2); first, second, third and fourth transitional parts (5a1, 5a2, 5b1, 5b2). The first and second transitional parts can be foldably or removably connected to the first intermediate part, and the third and fourth transitional parts can be foldably or removably connected to the second intermediate part. The said ramp-platform device can be placed onto or removed away from the moving device under disassembling and folding conditions.
