Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantage of this solution is that this heavy construction is associated with a high overall weight of the support ring, wherein the force effect increases too much proportionally with the weight and with the increase of the rotational

Embodiment Construction

[0021] figure 1 A schematic illustration of a support ring 1 according to the invention of a computed tomography system which is not further illustrated is shown. The support ring 1 has a high-strength frame 2 which is integrated into a lightweight structure 3 , in particular into a braided structure. Various components 8 are provided on the lightweight structure 3 . This part is a rotating accessory or retrofit part, such as cooling elements, electronics boxes, cables, etc. The support ring is hereby rotatable as a whole about an axis of rotation (A) which is arranged perpendicularly to the axes (B) and (C). The high-strength frame 2 and the support ring 1 have a common central opening 9 . The high-strength frame 2 has first, second and third accommodation parts. A radiation source 4 is arranged in the first receptacle. A detector 5 is arranged in the second receptacle. The aperture system 6 is arranged in the third receptacle. The receptacles are realized in such a wa...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a high-strength frame which has several receptacles for receiving main components of a CT imaging system, wherein each receptacles is formed in at least one direction to at least partially positively receive a main component, a tailor-made arrangement of the main components is realized in the high-strength frame, which provides an exact definition of the beam geometry. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a bearing ring with such a high-strength frame and a computed tomography device with such a bearing ring.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-strength frame for a rotatable support ring of a computed tomography device, a support ring and a computed tomography device with such a high-strength frame. Background technique [0002] A diagnostic method already used in medical technology is computed tomography. In this method, the area to be examined of the patient or object is irradiated in a sheet-like manner and the area to be examined of the patient or object is photographed from different directions. The image reconstruction from the photographs obtained then enables a two-dimensional or three-dimensional representation of the region to be examined and contributes to forming a diagnosis. [0003] Computed tomography devices used for this purpose usually have a gantry consisting of a stationary part and, if necessary, a tiltable part. The gantry is designed as a support structure for the rotating part of the computed tomography apparatus, also called drum. In...
