Embodiment Construction

[0052] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 1 , the X-ray tube assembly 1 is configured, for example, as an X-ray imaging diagnostic device and a non-destructive tester. The X-ray tube assembly 1 emits X-rays toward a target, ie, a test target. The X-ray tube assembly 1 has a housing 3 and an X-ray tube body (rotating anode X-ray tube) 5 . The X-ray tube body 5 is accommodated in the housing 3, and emits X-rays with a predetermined intensity in a predetermined direction.

[0054] The X-ray tube body 5 is accommodated at a predetermined position of the housing 3 by means of a coolant 7 . The coolant 7 is mainly composed of, for example, water, and is a non-oil cooling liquid (water-based cooling medium) having an electrical conductivity smaller than a predetermined value. A cooling medium having a conductivity of less than 1 mS / m is used as the coolant 7 to ensure ...

Abstract

There is disclosed a rotating anode X-ray tube assembly comprising a vacuum envelope (11) integrated with an anode target (15), a housing (3) receiving at least the vacuum envelope, and rotatably holding it, a circulation path circulating a cooling medium (7) closed to at least the anode target of the vacuum envelope, a cathode (13) received and arranged in the vacuum envelope, a cathode support member (13a) supporting the cathode, a bearing mechanism and a vacuum sealing mechanism interposed between the vacuum envelope, and the housing or a stationary member directly or indirectly fixed to the housing, and a driver unit for rotating the vacuum envelope.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to rotating anode X-ray tube assemblies. In particular, the present invention relates to a structure for improving the heat dissipation performance of an anode. Background technique [0002] Conventional rotating anode X-ray tube assemblies that improve the heat dissipation properties of the anode fall broadly into the following two types: [0003] (1) Type 1: The rotating anode X-ray tube assembly includes a rotating anode X-ray tube and a casing. A rotating anode ray tube is configured to receive a rotatably supported anode target in a vacuum envelope. A housing is provided to receive a rotating anode X-ray tube. In order to remove heat from the anode target, a circulation path for circulating a cooling medium in the anode target is provided (for example, see Japanese Patent Application KOKOKU Publication No. H5-27205 and Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2006-54181). [0004] The heat from the anode target is con...
