Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of CT scanning technology, and in particular to a large-aperture CT scanning device. Background Art

[0002] CT is a medical device that uses X-rays and a synchronously rotating detector to perform cross-sectional imaging of the human body. Its core components include an X-ray tube, a detector array, a rotating gantry, and a data processing system. Computer-generated high-resolution cross-sectional or three-dimensional images are reconstructed. CT is widely used in disease diagnosis, trauma assessment, and tumor detection.

[0003] Currently, a CT scanner consists of a support frame, a fixed frame, and a rotating frame. The fixed frame is mounted on the support frame, and the rotating frame is rotatably mounted within the fixed frame via bearings. The fixed frame is equipped with a drive mechanism that drives the rotating frame to rotate. Components such as the X-ray tube, detector, cooling system, high-voltage box, control chassis, and counterweights are all mounted on the circular rotating frame. Multiple components are installed at intervals along the circumference of the rotating frame so that the center of gravity of the rotating frame is located at the center of the rotating frame. A scanning aperture is formed within the rotating frame, typically with a diameter ranging from 500 to 700 mm. After the scanning bed inserts the patient into the scanning aperture, the drive mechanism rotates the multiple components via the rotating frame, thereby performing a CT scan.

[0004] When performing CT scans on obese patients, the conventional caliber scanning aperture may cause the patient's body to exceed the scanning field of view, affecting the integrity of the imaging, or even making it impossible for the patient to enter the scanning aperture. Therefore, obese patients need to be scanned using a large-caliber CT scanning device. When the inner diameter of the scanning aperture increases, in order to adapt to the installation of various components, the outer diameter of the rotating bracket will inevitably increase, thereby increasing the distance from each component to the center of the scanning aperture, which increases the centrifugal force on the components during rotation. Excessive centrifugal force will intensify the vibration of the components caused by the offset of the center of gravity, thereby reducing the stability of the CT scanning device.

[0039] The following is combined with Figures 1-9 This application is described in further detail.

[0040] The embodiment of the present application discloses a large-aperture CT scanning device.

[0041] Example 1:

[0042] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A large-aperture CT scanning device includes a support frame 1, a fixed support frame 2 and a rotating support frame 3. The support frame 1 is in a U-shape. The two sides of the fixed support frame 2 in the horizontal direction are installed at the top of both sides of the support frame 1. The rotating support frame 3 is rotatably installed in the fixed support frame 2 through a rotating bearing 37. A scanning hole 4 is formed in the rotating bearing 37. The aperture of the scanning hole 4 is 800-850mm.

[0043] A drive mechanism 5 is mounted on the fixed bracket 2. The drive mechanism 5 includes a drive member 51, a drive wheel 52, and a drive belt 53. The drive member 51 is fixedly mounted within the fixed bracket 2. The drive wheel 52 is fixedly mounted on the drive shaft of the drive member 51. The drive belt 53 is sleeved around the drive wheel 52 and the rotating bracket 3. In this application, the drive member 51 can be a servo motor. The drive member 51 rotates the drive belt 53 via the drive wheel 52, and the drive belt 53 in turn rotates the rotating bracket 3.

[0044] A tensioning mechanism 13 is mounted on the fixed bracket 2. The tensioning mechanism 13 comprises a tensioner 131, a first tensioning pulley 132, and two second tensioning pulleys 133. The tensioner 131 is fixedly mounted within the fixed bracket 2. The first tensioning pulley 132 is mounted at the movable end of the tensioner 131 and abuts the outer sidewall of the drive belt 53. The two second tensioning pulleys 133 are rotatably mounted within the fixed bracket 2. The two second tensioning pulleys 133 are located on the upper and lower sides of the drive belt 53, respectively, and both abut the outer sidewalls of the drive belt 53. The tensioning mechanism 13 is used to tension the drive belt 53, preventing it from slipping.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A rotating frame 6 is mounted on the side wall of the rotating bracket 3. Rotating the rotating bracket 3 drives the rotating frame 6 to rotate synchronously. The rotating frame 6 comprises a connecting plate 61, an upper plate 62, a lower plate 63, and two side plates 64. A circular hole is formed in the center of the connecting plate 61. The connecting plate 61 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating bracket 3. The upper plate 62, lower plate 63, and two side plates 64 are all fixedly mounted on the side wall of the connecting plate 61 away from the rotating bracket 3.

[0046] The upper plate 62 and the lower plate 63 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the scanning hole 4, and the two side plates 64 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the scanning hole 4 and installed along the tangential direction of the scanning hole 4, and the two ends of each side plate 64 are fixedly connected to the ends on the same side of the upper plate 62 and the lower plate 63.

[0047] The lower plate 63 comprises a first plate 631 and two second plates 632 fixedly mounted on the connecting plate 61. The first plate 631 is parallel to the upper plate 62 and is longer than the upper plate 62. The two second plates 632 are symmetrically located on either side of the first plate 631. The ends of the two second plates 632 that are closest to each other are fixedly connected to both ends of the first plate 631. The ends of the two second plates 632 that are away from the first plate 631 are inclined toward the upper plate 62, and the ends of the two second plates 632 that are away from each other are fixedly connected to the ends of the two side plates 64 that are away from the upper plate 62.

[0048] The X-ray tube 7 and the front collimator are respectively installed on the upper and lower sides of the upper plate 62; the cooling system 10, the high-voltage box 11 and the control chassis 12 are respectively installed on the side walls of the two side plates 64 away from each other; a detector is installed on the side of the connecting plate 61 close to the lower plate 63; a plurality of counterweights 9 are detachably fixedly installed on the first plate 631 and the second plate 632.

[0049] When rotating bracket 3 drives rotating frame 6 to rotate, it drives the various components to rotate, thereby performing a CT scan on the patient. The trapezoidal structure of rotating frame 6 reduces the distance between the X-ray tube 7, cooling system 10, high-voltage box 11, and control cabinet 12 and the center of the scanning aperture 4, reducing the centrifugal force on the components and improving the operational stability of the large-aperture CT scanner.

[0050] Reference Figure 4 A rectangular X-ray port 14 is formed in the upper plate 62. A first mounting plate 15 and a second mounting plate 16 are removably mounted to the upper plate 62 above the X-ray port 14 via bolts. The second mounting plate 16 is located above the first mounting plate 15, and the X-ray tube 7 is removably mounted to the second mounting plate 16 via a bracket 17. A mounting bracket 20 is removably mounted to the upper plate 62 below the X-ray port 14 via bolts. The front collimator is mounted within the mounting bracket 20.

[0051] A pull block 38 is fixedly installed at the end of the first mounting plate 15 in the length direction, and a first tensioning member 191 is installed on the internal thread of the pull block 38. A pull groove 39 is opened at one end of the top wall of the upper plate 62 in the length direction, and the first pull plate 181 is placed in the pull groove 39 of the upper plate 62, and the first tensioning member 191 passes through the first pull plate 181.

[0052] A second tensioning member 192 is threadedly mounted in the middle of the second mounting plate 16 in the width direction. A second pull plate 182 is slidably mounted on the second tensioning member 192, and the second pull plate 182 abuts against the side wall in the width direction of the upper plate 62. In this application, both the first tensioning member 191 and the second tensioning member 192 can be bolts.

[0053] After the first mounting plate 15 and the second mounting plate 16 are installed, the first tensioning member 191 and the second tensioning member 192 are rotated. The first tensioning member 191 pulls the pulling block 38 toward the first pulling plate 181. The first pulling plate 181 is pressed against the pulling groove 39. Thus, the first mounting plate 15 is tightened by the first pulling plate 181 and the pulling block 38. The second tensioning member 192 tightens the second mounting plate 16 through the second pulling plate 182, thereby making the X-ray tube 7 more securely installed.

[0054] The operating principle of a large-aperture CT scanner according to an embodiment of the present application is as follows: a driving member 51 rotates a driving belt 53 via a driving wheel 52, which in turn rotates a rotating support 3. The rotating support 3 rotates synchronously with the rotating frame 6, which in turn rotates the various components, thereby performing a CT scan on the patient. Because the rotating frame 6 has a trapezoidal structure, the distance from the X-ray tube 7, cooling system 10, high-voltage box 11, and control chassis 12 to the center of the scanning aperture 4 is shortened, reducing the centrifugal force on the components and improving the operational stability of the large-aperture CT scanner.

[0055] Example 2:

[0056] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 This embodiment differs from Embodiment 1 in that reinforcement blocks 21 are fixedly mounted on both inner sidewalls of the upper plate 62 along the length of the radiation port 14. Two limit rods 22 are slidably mounted on both ends of the mounting frame 20 along the length. Connecting blocks 41 are fixedly mounted on both ends of each support 17 along the length. The top of each limit rod 22 slides sequentially through the reinforcement block 21, the first mounting plate 15, the second mounting plate 16, and the connecting block 41. A limit block 23 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the limit rod 22. Four receiving slots 40 are defined on the bottom wall of the mounting frame 20, and the four limit blocks 23 are respectively located within the four receiving slots 40.

[0057] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 The top of the limit rod 22 defines a limit slot 24 along its width. A first slide slot 26 and a second slide slot 27 are defined on either side of the limit rod 22 within the connecting block 41. The second slide slot 27 is deeper than the limit slot 24, while the first slide slot 26 is less deep than the limit slot 24. The limit pin 25 is slidably mounted within the first and second slide slots 26 and 27 within the connecting block 41, and the limit pin 25 slides through the limit slot 24. A second limit ridge 29 is fixedly mounted on the middle portion of the top wall of the limit pin 25 along its width. A first limit ridge 28 and a third limit ridge 30 are fixedly mounted on both ends of the bottom wall of the limit pin 25 along its width.

[0058] After the limiting rod 22 slides through the reinforcing block 21, the first mounting plate 15, the second mounting plate 16, and the connecting block 41, the limiting pin 25 is inserted into the connecting block 41 from the second chute 27. The end of the limiting pin 25 passes through the second chute 27 and the limiting groove 24 in sequence and enters the first chute 26. At this time, the first limiting protrusion 28, the second limiting protrusion 29, and the third limiting protrusion 30 are respectively located at the notches of the first chute 26, the limiting groove 24, and the second chute 27. Then, the end of the limiting rod 22 is struck, and the limiting rod 22 drives the first limiting protrusion 28, the second limiting protrusion 29, and the third limiting protrusion 30 to enter the first chute 26, the limiting groove 24, and the second chute 27 at the same time.

[0059] At this point, the first limiting protrusion 28 abuts against the bottom wall of the first chute 26, the second limiting protrusion 29 abuts against the top wall of the limiting groove 24, and the third limiting protrusion 30 abuts against the bottom wall of the second chute 27, thereby securing the limiting rod 22. Simultaneously, the second limiting protrusion 29 pushes the limiting rod 22 upward, tightening the limiting block 23 within the accommodating groove 40. The limiting rod 22 reinforces the mounting frame 20, the reinforcement block 21, the first mounting plate 15, the second mounting plate 16, and the support 17, thereby further improving the stability of the installation of the X-ray tube 7 and the front collimator.

[0060] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 A moving rod 31 is mounted on the side wall of the connecting block 41. The moving rod 31 is slidably mounted in the connecting block 41 along the moving direction of the vertical stop pin 25, and the moving rod 31 is rotatably mounted in the connecting block 41. An elastic member 33 is sleeved on the moving rod 31. In this application, the elastic member 33 can be a spring, and one end of the elastic member 33 abuts the outer wall of the connecting block 41, and the other end abuts the end of the moving rod 31.

[0061] A locking block 32 is fixedly installed on the end of the moving rod 31 near the limit pin 25, and an inlet groove 34 is opened on the side wall of the limit pin 25 near the locking block 32. A rotation groove 35 is opened in the limit pin 25, and the rotation groove 35 is connected to the inlet groove 34. A locking groove 36 is opened on the inner side wall of the rotation groove 35 near the moving rod 31 in the limit pin 25, and the locking block 32 is slidably installed in the inlet groove 34 and the rotation groove 35.

[0062] After the stop pin 25 is installed, the movable rod 31 is pushed toward the stop pin 25. The movable rod 31 drives the locking block 32 into the inlet groove 34, and the end of the movable rod 31 presses the elastic member 33. After the locking block 32 enters the inlet groove 34, the movable rod 31 is rotated, which drives the locking block 32 to rotate within the rotation groove 35. When the locking block 32 rotates to the end of the rotation groove 35, the movable rod 31 is released. The elastic member 33, via the movable rod 31, drives the locking block 32 into the locking groove 36, locking the stop pin 25. This prevents the stop pin 25 from slipping out of the stop groove 24, thereby further improving the stability of the stop rod 22.

[0063] The implementation principle of Example 2 of the present application is as follows: After the limiting rod 22 slides through the reinforcement block 21, the first mounting plate 15, the second mounting plate 16, and the connecting block 41, the limiting pin 25 is inserted into the connecting block 41 from the second chute 27. The end of the limiting pin 25 passes through the second chute 27 and the limiting groove 24 in sequence and enters the first chute 26. The limiting rod 22 is then struck, causing the first limiting protrusion 28, the second limiting protrusion 29, and the third limiting protrusion 30 to simultaneously enter the first chute 26, the limiting groove 24, and the second chute 27. At this time, the first limiting protrusion 28 abuts against the bottom wall of the first chute 26, the second limiting protrusion 29 abuts against the top wall of the limiting groove 24, and the third limiting protrusion 30 abuts against the bottom wall of the second chute 27, thereby fixing the limiting rod 22. The limiting rod 22 reinforces the mounting frame 20 , the reinforcing block 21 , the first mounting plate 15 , the second mounting plate 16 and the support 17 , thereby further improving the installation stability of the X-ray tube 7 and the front collimator.
