摘要:
An x-ray detector 200 comprises: a housing, including a cover 230 removably fastened on a flange 220 of a flanged base and forming a semi-hermetic seal 240 therebetween, the flanged base including a bottom surface 228 and the flange 220 surrounding a perimeter of the bottom surface 228; and an x-ray imager positioned on the bottom surface 228, the x-ray imager including a scintillator 215 and an image sensor 210, wherein the seal 240 semi-hermetically encloses the x-ray imager in the housing, and is positioned nonadjacently to surfaces in contact with the x-ray imager. In this way, a simpler and less costly seal for a digital x-ray panel can be provided; furthermore, the seal 240 is reusable and resealable, facilitating repair and refurbishment of the device.
摘要:
A moisture protection structure (10) used to protect a device (15) against moisture penetration. The device (15) has a first area (A1) at a first side (S1) for emitting or receiving radiation (RE;RR). The device (15) has a second side (S2) opposite to the first side (S1) attached to a supporting means (20). A lateral side (LS) of the device (15) is defined between a first perimeter delimiting the first area (A1) on the first side (S1) and a second perimeter delimiting a second area (A2) on the second side (S2). The moisture protection structure (10) includes at least one moisture-resistant layer (25) deposited on the first area (A1) and the lateral side (LS) of the device (15) and a moisture-resistant cover (30) arranged to cover the at least one moisture-resistant layer (25) at the first side (S1). The moisture-resistant cover (30) and the at least one moisture-resistant layer (25) are transparent for the emitting or receiving radiation (RE;RR). The moisture protective structure (10) further includes a pressurizing member (55;57;59) attached to the supporting means (20). The pressurizing member (55;57;59) includes an elastic deformable material (40;42) and it is arranged to exert a pressure on the moisture-resistant cover (30) towards the second side (S2) of the device (15). The pressure on the moisture-resistant cover (30) ensures that the first side (S1) of the device (15) is sealed against moisture penetration.
