Abstract:
An x-ray anode has an emission layer and a carrier with carrier material to support the emission layer. The carrier material is a metallized carbon fiber material with a portion in which the fibers are specifically directed. A high heat dissipation from the emission layer and a coefficient of heat expansion of the carrier that is advantageous for bonding with the emission layer are achieved.
Abstract:
A fluid-cooled x-ray tube has a closed coolant circuit in which coolant circulates for the elimination of the generated heat. In order to improve the cooling capacity, micro-capsules are added to the coolant that contain a phase-change material (PCM). The micro-capsules have a size of approximately 5 &mgr;m through 20 &mgr;m in diameter.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a furniture system, consisting of a height-adjustable chair and a height-adjustable table. According to the invention, the chair and the table can be height-adjusted synchronously by means of a common control device, wherein the height adjustment of the table and the height adjustment of the chair are synchronized with each other in such a way that, at different heights, an ideal distance between the tabletop and the seat surface of the chair is always maintained.
Abstract:
Spectacles having a lens frame and arms connected thereto and a retaining strap which can be fastened to the spectacles. A receiving device is provided on the free end of at least one arm, which receiving device interacts with a connecting element to which a retaining strap is undetachably fastened, e.g. moulded on. A plurality of receiving devices can be disposed at predetermined positions between the front end of each arm and the free end thereof. This has the advantage that the retaining strap can be adapted individually to the shape of the head, the hair length and possible individual preferences of the wearer of the spectacles. Thus the retaining strap can be immovably fastened not only to the free end of the arm but also to a front end of the arm, that is to say where the arm adjoins the hinge, and all intermediate positions.
Abstract:
A rotating anode plate for rotating anode x-ray tubes, has a curved disc to be attached positively on a rotation center. The curved disc is formed of a material with high thermal shock resistance that is creep-resistant and simultaneously highly heat-conductive. Particularly suitable materials are ceramics made of silicon carbide (SiC) or alloys made of molybdenum-titanium-zirconium (TZM).
Abstract:
A cathode has a cathode body with a surface emitter composed of an electrically conductive ceramic material. The cathode has a high electron emission and a long lifespan.
Abstract:
A rotary anode x-ray radiator has an anode produced from a first material as well as a cathode. A structure for accommodation of at least one heat conductor element produced from a second material is provided on an external side of the anode facing away from the cathode, in an annular segment situated opposite the anode. The second material exhibits a higher heat conductivity than the first material. The heat conductor elements are accommodated in the structure to form expansion gaps.
Abstract:
In an x-ray apparatus and a method for operation thereof, plastic deformations on the surface of the anode are achieved by applied current or the applied voltage being steadily increased up to an operating current strength or an operating voltage within a time segment following initial activation.
Abstract:
An X-ray anode is produced by scoring at least a region of a surface of the anode, on which electrons are incident, with a number of defined microslits, thereby making the surface, or at least the region thereof, highly thermally stressable.
