TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electrostatic deflection plate adjustment, and particularly relates to an adjusting device for an electrostatic deflection plate of a superconducting cyclotron. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a key high-energy beam output device in the current proton therapy system, the superconducting cyclotron has the advantages of high magnetic field strength, strong running stability, compact structure, etc., and is widely used in high-end fields such as proton radiotherapy and nuclear physics research. In the beam extraction process, the electrostatic deflection plate, as a key component, is used to guide the high-energy proton beam from the main magnetic field region to the beam channel, realizing efficient transfer and accurate positioning of the beam. However, due to the influence of many complex factors such as non-uniformity of magnetic field distribution, space charge disturbance, and beam dynamics, the theoretical extraction trajectory often deviates from the actual trajectory, so it is necessary to have an adjustable deflection plate structure to ensure accurate beam extraction.
[0003] In the prior art, the electrostatic deflection plate often adopts an internal fine adjustment structure, or can only be indirectly adjusted through internal devices of the accelerator. In the superconducting cyclotron, the device is operated in a harsh environment of high vacuum, high voltage, and strong magnetic field for a long time. Once the deflection plate position needs to be adjusted, the device usually needs to be stopped, the vacuum needs to be broken, the cavity needs to be opened, and the deflection plate position needs to be adjusted. After the adjustment is completed, the cavity needs to be recombined and the vacuum needs to be extracted to the set value. The whole process is complex, time-consuming, and low in efficiency, which seriously affects the beam debugging process and the availability of the device. At the same time, the current deflection plate adjustment structure is designed for a medium-low voltage environment, and it is difficult to meet the strict requirements of insulation performance and operation safety when the deflection plate bears tens of kilovolts of high voltage, and there is a potential risk of discharge and breakdown.
