Abstract: An X-ray tube device according to the present invention includes a cathode generating an electron beam, an anode generating an X-ray by collision of the electron beam from the cathode, an envelope internally housing the cathode and the anode, a magnetic field generator including a magnetic pole arranged to be opposed to the envelope, generating a magnetic field for focusing and deflecting the electron beam from the cathode to the anode, and an electric field relaxing electrode arranged between the magnetic pole and the envelope, having an outer surface having a rounded shape. Thus, the magnetic field generator can be placed closer to the envelope while a tip end of the magnetic field generator is suppressed from being a discharge start point, and hence the effect of being capable of downsizing the X-ray tube device is achieved.

Abstract: An emitter for an X-ray tube device is configured to irradiate an anode with electrons for X-ray emission. The emitter includes an electron emission portion to be heated by an electric current, a current application leg for supplying the electric current to the electron emission portion, a support leg, a current application leg fixing portion for supporting the current application leg and supplying the electric current to the current application leg, and a support leg fixing portion for supporting the support leg. At least one of materials and shapes are different between the current application leg fixing portion and the support leg fixing portion so that a difference in an amount of thermal deformation between the current application leg and the support leg in a direction vertical to the electron emission portion is reduced when the electron emission portion is heated.
