The invention relates to a hygienic modular feed device for an inspection device, in particular an X-ray inspection device, for transferring products of a product stream consisting of bulk material, which is supplied from a substantially vertical z direction into a substantially horizontal conveying direction x and thus onto a conveying plane located in the x-y direction perpendicular to the z direction, wherein the feed device has an inlet opening above, as viewed in the z direction, oriented substantially in the z direction, and an outlet opening below, as viewed in the z direction, oriented substantially in the x direction, both openings being connected to an intermediate region, the intermediate region having a curved wall on the rear side, as viewed at least in the conveying direction x, to gently change the direction of the products from the z direction into the x direction, such that the pressure generated by the falling movement of the products is at least partially absorbed by the wall, and accordingly the pressure of the product stream on a conveyor system, in particular conveyor belt, arranged below the outlet opening is reduced. The invention also relates to a method for optimizing inspection outcomes using such an inspection device.
