Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of X-ray, in particular to a high counting rate X-ray tube device. BACKGROUND

[0002] As the core component of X-ray generating devices, X-ray tubes are widely used in industrial non-destructive testing, medical imaging, security inspection equipment and other fields. With the advancement of technology, the demand for X-ray tubes is increasing, but they face many technical challenges in high-power and long-time working scenarios. Traditional X-ray tube devices have low heat dissipation efficiency, difficulty in maintaining vacuum degree, and other problems, which limit their performance and service life.

[0003] The heat dissipation efficiency of traditional X-ray tube devices is insufficient. When working at high power, the anode target surface generates a large amount of heat due to electron beam bombardment. If heat dissipation is not timely, it will cause the target surface temperature to be too high, causing target material ablation and shortening the service life. Existing heat dissipation designs (such as heat sinks, forced air cooling, etc.) still cannot meet the needs in high counting rate scenarios.

[0004] Traditional X-ray tube devices have difficulty in maintaining vacuum degree in high temperature environments. X-ray tubes need to maintain high vacuum to ensure stable electron movement and X-ray output, but when working at high power, the internal temperature rises, causing material outgassing and a decrease in vacuum degree, which may cause arc discharge and affect device safety and performance. Existing methods such as getters have limited effect under high temperature conditions. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0083] Specifically, the shell 1 is a special cylindrical stainless steel container. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the upper part of the shell 1 is the top cover 11, the middle part is the wall barrel 12, and the bottom part is the bottom cover 13. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the top cover 11 is provided with a low-voltage power supply interface hole 111 and a high-voltage power supply interface hole 112, wherein the low-voltage power supply interface hole 111 is fixedly connected with the low-voltage interface device 10 for fixing the low-voltage interface device 10, and the high-voltage power supply interface hole 112 is connected with one end of the high-voltage connecting device 8 for fixing the high-voltage connecting device 8. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the wall barrel 12 is provided with an X-ray outlet hole 121 and a flange positioning hole 122, wherein the X-ray outlet hole 121 is used for outputting X-rays emitted by the X-ray tube core 2, or for welding the flange device 3 to connect external equipment, wherein the flange device 3 is provided with a window for X-ray output, and the flange positioning hole 122 is used to ensure the accuracy of the welding position of the flange device 3. A 1MM lead plate 9 is fixed on the inner wall of the shell 1 to shield scattered X-ray radiation.

[0084] The high-voltage connecting device 8 is used to supply high-voltage electricity output by a high-voltage power supply to the X-ray tube core 2, and the low-voltage interface device 10 provides low-voltage electricity for the X-ray tube core 2. The insulating sleeve 7 and the transformer oil are used to isolate high-voltage electricity.

[0085] The high counting rate X-ray tube device provided by the embodiment is characterized in that the heat sink 4 is a heat conduction conductor for the anode of the X-ray tube core 2, and the heat generated by the anode is rapidly conducted to the transformer oil through the heat sink 4, and then rapidly conducted to the stainless steel shell 1 to dissipate heat outward, so as to ensure that the X-ray tube core 2 can work at a lower temperature for a long time.

[0086] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 the X-ray tube core 2 comprises:

[0087] a vacuum glass tube 21, a wall of the vacuum glass tube 21 is provided with a convex near-hemispherical part as an X-ray output port of the X-ray tube core 2; the convex near-hemispherical part is arranged correspondingly to the X-ray output hole 121;

[0088] a lamp core 22, the lamp core 22 is a cathode of the X-ray tube core 2, and is arranged at one end of the vacuum glass tube 21; the lamp core 22 is composed of a filament 221, a condenser 222 and a core column 223; the condenser 222 condenses light for the filament 221; the core column 223 connects the filament 221 to a low-voltage interface device 10; and the core column 223 is connected to the low-voltage interface device 10.

[0089] a target material 23, the target material 23 is an anode of the X-ray tube core 2, and is arranged at the other end of the vacuum glass tube 21; the target material 23 is composed of a target surface 231 and a copper target 232; and the copper target 232 is connected to the high-voltage connection device 8.

[0090] Specifically, the vacuum glass tube 21 is a tubular column in vacuum, and is used to carry the remaining components and bear the internal vacuum pressure and X-ray output.

[0091] The X-ray output port is arranged on the wall of the vacuum glass tube 21 and protrudes outward along the radial direction of the vacuum glass tube 21 in a near-hemispherical shape, so that the path of the X-ray output is more in the vacuum state, and the dose of the X-ray tube KV and MA is reduced. This innovative design greatly reduces the heating degree of the X-ray tube core 2, greatly improves the use efficiency of the X-ray, and through a large number of actual tests, the efficiency is doubled, that is, the original 1 / 2 X-ray dose can be used to achieve the detection requirement, and the service life of the X-ray tube is effectively prolonged. The X-ray output port can be conical or hemispherical. It can be understood that the size of the X-ray output port is set according to actual requirements.

[0092] As shown in Figure 7 the lamp core 22 is composed of the filament 221, the condenser 222 and the core column 223. As shown in Figure 8 the target material 23 comprises the copper target 232 and the target surface 231.

[0093] The lamp core 22 is a cathode of the X-ray tube core 2, the filament 221 is a tungsten filament, and is heated to a high temperature by being electrified to emit electrons. The cathode head of the condenser 222 provides support for the filament 221 and helps focus the electrons to ensure that the electrons can be accurately guided to the anode target surface 231.

The inclined surface of the copper target 232 is 19°, and the target surface 231 after welding is also 19°. This angle reflects the output of X-rays.

[0094] The X-ray tube core 2 is a high-count X-ray tube core. After the target material is loaded with high-voltage electricity and the filament is loaded with low-voltage electricity, X-rays are generated on the target surface.

[0095] In one embodiment, the high-count X-ray tube device further comprises a flange device 3, and the X-rays emitted by the X-ray tube core 2 are output through the flange device 3. The flange device 3 is used to accurately dock the clamping slot of the X-ray inlet of the application equipment. A collimator can also be installed on the flange device 3.

The window 33 of the flange device 3 is the output port of the X-rays to the outside, which can be a glass window or a beryllium window. The glass window or the beryllium window is sealed and fixed by the window compression ring 34. The external device fixing hole 35 is used to fix the external device.
