    摘要: A method for assembling a rotating X-ray tube structure ensures balance retention during the life of the tube. The X-ray tube structure has a cathode for emitting electrons, and a rotor and a bearing assembly for facilitating rotation of an anode. At least one joint is identified in the X-ray tube structure and interference fit assembly is used to eliminate shifts at the joint. The interference fit assembly is particularly advantageous for eliminating even the minutest shifts in the main joints of the anode assembly. Interference fit assembly can be applied between the rotor and the anode target to provide a first joint having balance retention; and interference fit assembly can be applied between the bearing assembly and the rotor to provide a second joint having balance retention.

    摘要: A method is used for interfacing materials of dissimilar thermal expansion in an X-ray tube. Initially, a first joint is identified, which has a first component to be received into a second component. Typically, the first component has a higher coefficient of expansion than the second component, so the purpose of the invention is to reduce the physical expansion of that component in the joint. A plurality of slots is introduced along the approximate axial length of a coupling member at the joint, to achieve the aforementioned purpose. The coupling member is provided between the two components, and has a thermal expansion rate greater than one component and less than the other component.

    摘要: A method is used for interfacing materials of dissimilar thermal expansion in an X-ray tube. Initially, a first joint is identified, which has an inner component to be received into an outer component. Typically, the inner component has a higher coefficient of expansion than the outer component, so the purpose of the invention is to reduce the physical expansion of that component in the joint. A plurality of slots is introduced along the approximate axial length of the inner component of the joint, to achieve the aforementioned purpose. Alternatively, a coupling member could be provided between two components, the coupling member having a thermal expansion rate greater than one component and less than the other component.

    摘要: A low-profile shipping system for shipping an object without a pallet includes a shipping crate configured to surround the object being shipped. The shipping crate is configured to substantially enclose the object being shipped. The shipping crate defines a first passageway and a second passageway. The first passageway and the second passageway are adapted to receive a fork of a forklift. The low-profile shipping system also includes a shipping rail attached to the inside of the shipping crate at a location above the first passageway and the second passageway. The shipping rail is adapted to support the weight of the object and the shipping crate while the object is being transported by forklift.

    摘要: An x-ray system with an x-ray generating device having improved heat dissipation capabilities. The x-ray generating device includes an x-ray tube mounted in a casing holding a circulating, cooling medium. According to the present invention, the x-ray generating device includes a support mechanism mounted within the x-ray generating device in a manner for adjustably positioning, relative to the casing, the focal spot alignment path of generated x-rays. Additionally, the x-ray generating device includes a cooling mechanism having an inlet chamber for channeling the cooling medium within the support mechanism. Additionally, a cooling stem may be positioned within the inlet chamber to increase the heat exchange surface area exposed to the cooling medium. Thus, the present invention advantageously increases the heat dissipation capability of the x-ray generating device.
