A spring pin connection assembly maintains stable electrical contact between filament leads and high voltage receptacles in compact X-ray tube devices.
An additive manufactured x-ray tube casing integrates internal cooling channels and a fluid distribution manifold directly into the housing structure.
Magnetic attractor captures peeled solid lubrication films from X-ray tube bearings, preventing discharge caused by scattered debris.
Extraction of electronics from the shielded zone reduces radiation protection material, lowering total device weight below 25 kg.
Segmenting the high voltage potential across an intermediate electrode reduces insulation requirements, enabling 150 kV operation in handheld devices.
