Embodiment
The process flow diagram of the cooling means of Fig. 1 medical image system of the present invention.The heat generating components of supposing this moment is the X-ray pipe that uses among the computed tomography imaging system CT, then according to this method, survey the temperature of this heat generating components (being the X-ray pipe) with a temperature sensor, this temperature sensor is sent to a fan unit with the temperature of being surveyed, and fan unit is adjusted its rotating speed according to the temperature that is received.
Fig. 2 is the synoptic diagram of the cooling device of medical image system of the present invention, and wherein 10 is a heat generating components X-ray pipe, and 20 for being used to cool off the fan of this X-ray pipe 10, and a stationary installation 80 is arranged on the X-ray pipe.According to the present invention, a temperature sensor 30 is set in this CT system, this temperature sensor 30 places the surface of X-ray pipe 10, and is connected with fan 20 by line.Temperature sensor 30 is surveyed the temperature of X-ray pipe 10 and is sent the temperature that is detected to be attached thereto fan 20, and fan 20 is adjusted its rotating speed according to received temperature.
It is spherical that common temperature sensor mostly is, for ease of installing and making the temperature of detection effective more, reliable, further one compressing tablet 50 is set on X-ray pipe 10 surfaces, offer two holes 501,502 on this compressing tablet 50, laying temperature sensor 30 in its mesopore 501, another one hole 502 is used to place bolt 70, and bolt 70 combines compressing tablet 50 and stationary installation 80, thereby makes compressing tablet 50 and X-ray pipe 10 combine.
Because compressing tablet 50 is rigid element with X-ray pipe 10, and temperature sensor 30 is generally ceramic surface, if only use compressing tablet 50 fixed temperature sensors 30, then easily with temperature sensor 30 crushing.In addition, only rely on rigidity compressing tablet 50 also to be not easy temperature sensor 30 is pressed on X-ray pipe 10 surfaces.For this reason, cover one deck resilient material, be generally silicon rubber 60 in the bottom of compressing tablet 50.Offer a hole on the silicon rubber 60, the position in the hole 501 on this hole and the compressing tablet 50 is corresponding, and the sectional area in the hole on the silicon rubber 60 is slightly less than the sectional area in the hole 501 on the compressing tablet 50.Like this, when making on the one hand with the fixing spherical temperature sensor 30 of compressing tablet 50, can be with temperature sensor 30 crushing, by the hole on the silicon rubber 60 that temperature sensor 30 is fixing on the other hand, also make spherical temperature sensor 30 can be close to the surface of X-ray pipe 10, therefore can survey the temperature of X-ray pipe 10 more exactly.The stereographic map of compressing tablet 50 as shown in Figure 3.
Temperature sensor 30 can be selected thermistor for use, and this temperature sensor 30 has two lead-in wires 301,302.For being connected with this temperature sensor 30, the fan 20 that is used to cool off needs the extra lead-in wire 201 that adds on existing two power leads 202,203 bases.Power lead 203 is generally live wire, and 202 is zero line.The lead-in wire 301 of temperature sensor links to each other with the lead-in wire 201 of electric fan 20, and the lead-in wire 302 of temperature sensor links to each other with the zero line 202 of electric fan 20.Through above-mentioned connection, fan 20 just can sense temperature sensor 30 changes in resistance.Owing to have mapping relations between resistance and the temperature, thereby fan 20 is also just learnt the variation of temperature of temperature sensor 30, and then adjusts its rotating speed according to the temperature of this variation.
Relation between the temperature of the temperature sensor that rotating speed and its received 30 of described fan 20 as shown in Figure 4.Upper and lower two tachometer value S are arranged among Fig. 4 LowAnd S High, when the temperature that receives when fan 20 was low, the invariablenes turning speed of fan 20 was at S LowThe temperature that receives when fan 20 arrives uniform temperature T LowThe time, the rotating speed of fan 20 begins to increase with temperature linearity.The temperature that receives when it raises gradually, arrives temperature T HighThe time, the rotating speed of fan 20 begins to become steady state value S again HighOtherwise the temperature that receives when fan 20 reduces gradually, arrives temperature T HighThe time, the rotating speed of fan 20 begins to reduce with temperature linearity.The temperature that receives when fan 20 is reduced to uniform temperature T LowThe time, the rotating speed of fan 20 begins to become steady state value S again Low
Therefore, in the present invention, when using 20 pairs of described X-ray pipes 10 of fan to cool off, the course of work of fan 20 is as follows: at first, system boot, X-ray pipe 10 is in normal temperature, and temperature sensor 30 is given fan 20 with the temperature transfer of the X-ray pipe 10 that records, and fan 20 carries out temperature control and makes it keep low-speed running.
System is after operation a period of time, X-ray pipe 10 is through multiexposure, multiple exposure, perspective, its skin temperature progressively rises, the temperature transfer of the X-ray pipe 10 that progressively rises that temperature sensor 30 will record is given fan 20, fan 20 carries out temperature control and it is progressively revved up, the linear growth of the temperature of its rotating speed and current reception.
System continues operation, is in high load capacity, and the X-ray pipe 10 of this moment is through continuous exposures or make uninterrupted perspective, and its skin temperature is accelerated to rise, the final X-ray pipe 10 temperature critical value that reaches a high temperature.Temperature sensor 30 is passed to fan 20 after recording this high temperature critical value, and fan 20 runs up with constant speed, to greatest extent X-ray pipe 10 is cooled off.
System continues operation, and X-ray pipe 10 is in holding state, and this moment, it stopped exposure or perspective, skin temperature progressively descends, temperature sensor 30 is passed to fan 20 after recording the temperature of X-ray pipe 10, and the rotating speed of fan 20 progressively reduces, up to keeping a minimum constant rotational speed.
The foregoing description is that linearity is that example is illustrated cooling procedure with the rotating speed of fan and the temperature of its reception only.In the enforcement, can also be nonlinear relationship between the rotating speed of fan and its reception temperature, for example be a nonlinear function.
Above-mentioned only with a fan be example present invention is described, can also adopt fan form in parallel to strengthen cooling effect to the medical imaging system assembly of some big thermal capacity.Can offer a plurality of holes at compressing tablet 50 this moment, and a temperature sensor is set in each hole, and each temperature sensor links to each other with a fan.In order to save the space, can also be punctured into a swallow-tail form owing to have the more lead-in wire of number with a side 503 of compressing tablet 50 this moment, 503 one sides of lead-in wire 301,302 bundles on the compressing tablet 50 of swallow-tail form of temperature sensor 30.
Adopt cooling means of the present invention and cooling device at first can realize the medical imaging system assembly is monitored automatically, adjust rotation speed of the fan (intake) automatically according to the temperature of heat generating components in the system.Because the temperature of system's heat generating components when standby reduces, so the also corresponding reduction of the rotating speed of fan, thereby the noise of fan when reducing standby reduces the influence to doctor and patient, and doctor and patient are in the relative quietly environment.Secondly, the rotating speed of fan reduces during owing to standby, so can saves energy consume, prolongs the serviceable life of cooling fan.And the present invention can realize goal of the invention increasing under the prerequisite of cost seldom.
