PORTABLE X-RAY GENERATOR Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: radio engineering. SUBSTANCE: capacitors 6 of levelling column of cascade multiplier of voltages are wound around metal part 4 of sectional sleeve embracing zone of anode 7 of X-ray tube 3 and used as plate of capacitor 6 of this column connected to anode of tube 3. Capacitors 10 of increasing column are wound around dielectric part 5 of sectional sleeve in zone of cathode 9 of X-ray tube 3. Dielectric layers 12, 13 protruding beyond plates of capacitors 6, 10 are in turn overlapped in zone of interelectrode gap of X-ray tube 3. Diodes 14 of voltage multiplier are arranged between crossing layers 12, 13 of dielectric uniformly over circumference of sectional sleeve. Complex resistors 11 and resistors 8 are wound between adjacent layers 12, 13 of dielectric. Stability of radiation output and of directivity pattern are achieved thanks to exclusion of modulation of flux of electrons. EFFECT: enhanced stability of radiation output and diminished dimensions of generator. 2 dwg
