Definitions

  • the invention relates to electrical devices which are used to power X-ray tubes.
  • An X-ray tube includes a filament type cathode which emits an electron beam towards an anode or anticathode.
  • the anode is made of a material such as tungsten or molybdenum which emits X-rays when it is bombarded by the electron beam from the cathode.
  • the electrons are accelerated by an intense electric field created between the cathode and the anode.
  • the anode is brought to a positive potential of several tens of kilovolts relative to the cathode, this potential being able to exceed one hundred kilovolts and reach one hundred and forty kilovolts.
  • Such voltages are supplied by so-called high voltage power supply devices which include, as shown in FIG. 1, a transformer 10 which is connected to voltage rectifier-doubler circuits 11. More specifically, the transformer 10 comprises a single winding primary 12 to which an alternating voltage is applied and a secondary circuit 13 which is connected to the rectifier-doubling circuits 11.
  • Each rectifier-doubling circuit 11 consists, in a conventional manner, in a secondary winding 14, two diodes D1 and D2 and two capacitors C1 and C2 which are connected together according to the diagram in FIG. 1.
  • Each voltage rectifier-doubler circuit is connected to the next one so that their voltages output add up, which allows to obtain a very high voltage on the last circuit doubler of assembly.
  • the transformer 10 comprises a primary winding 12 and twelve secondary windings S1, S5, S6 and S12. Similarly, it includes twenty-four identical rectifier diodes D1, D2, D3 ... D10, D11, D12 ... D22, D23, D24. Of course, each diode can be replaced by several diodes in series to take account of the reverse voltage held by the diodes.
  • Each secondary winding S1 to S12 has two output terminals. All the output terminals bear the references B1 to B24, only the terminals B1, B2, B3 ... B5, B6, B7, B8 ... B23, B24 having been represented.
  • the common point of the capacitor C1 and the diode D1 constitutes the high voltage output terminal 46 HT through a resistor R while the common point of the capacitor C24 and the diode D24 constitutes the output terminal mass with which a spark gap is associated 9.
  • the high voltage output terminal 46 is connected to a measuring device (not shown) connected to point M via a resistor R and a variable capacitor C.
  • the point M is connected to ground by a spark gap 8.
  • each rectifier-doubler circuit has an output voltage of six kilovolts so that at the output of the twelfth rectifier-doubler circuit, the voltage is seventy-two kilovolts.
  • X-ray tubes are used more and more in impulse mode according to increasingly higher repetition frequencies.
  • the performance of the circuit of FIG. 1 is limited by the parasitic capacities and inductors of the conductors and the windings of the transformer, the values of which are difficult to know and to compensate for.
  • the secondary circuit in the form of concentric windings, only the parasitic capacitance between the first secondary winding and the mass has an influence because the other parasitic capacitances between the secondary windings between them do not intervene because they are at an alternating voltage.
  • the The invention described in the aforementioned patent application first provides for making secondary windings whose similar output terminals of odd rank B1, B3 ... B23, are arranged on a first lateral side of the windings while the output terminals of even rank B2, B4 ... B24 are arranged on the other or second lateral side of the secondary windings. It is then planned to group the diodes D1 to D24 on the same support which is arranged on the side of the output terminals B1, B3 ...
  • the high voltage supply device described in the application for The aforementioned patent is placed in an enclosure filled with an insulating cooling fluid and the assembly constitutes what is called a high voltage block.
  • a large volume of coolant from 15 to 20 liters approximately, is necessary, volume which leads to a block quite bulky high voltage.
  • Such a high voltage block in addition to its reduction in volume, has satisfactory electrical characteristics for most current applications and thus makes it possible to reach high voltages greater than one hundred kilovolts.
  • the magnetic circuits which can be used are of the type resulting from the combination of a first circuit in the form of the letter C or in the form of a horseshoe and a second circuit in the form of the letter I which closes the first circuit.
  • the maximum area of the window for passage of such magnetic circuits is limited, which limits the area available for the windings.
  • the secondary circuits are connected so as to apply a positive high voltage on the anode and a negative high voltage on the cathode, of the order of 75 kilovolts each, it is difficult, if not impossible, to obtain symmetry perfect between the two high voltages. Indeed, as the midpoint corresponds to one of the secondary windings, the negative high voltage will correspond, for example to windings close to the magnetic circuit while the positive high voltage will correspond to windings distant from the magnetic circuit. From this arrangement, it follows that the windings of the high positive voltage are subjected to a weaker magnetic flux than those of the high negative voltage.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to produce a high voltage device and, more particularly a high voltage block, which can provide at least double power compared to the devices and blocks described in the aforementioned patent applications.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a high voltage block which can provide perfectly symmetrical high voltages.
  • Figure 1 is the conventional electrical diagram of a high voltage supply device for an X-ray tube will not be described again but is an integral part of the description of the invention. Indeed, according to the purely functional aspect of the invention, it consists in producing two secondary circuits identical each to that of the electrical diagram of FIG. 1 and in magnetically coupling their windings to a primary circuit by means of a magnetic circuit.
  • the elements of a first secondary circuit will be referenced by those of FIG. 1 while the identical elements of the second secondary circuit will be referenced by "premium" references as indicated by the references in parentheses.

  • Two primary windings 12 and 12 ′ are placed at the internal periphery of the hollow cylinder 20, the space interior remained free being occupied by the internal branch of a magnetic circuit 26.
  • the magnetic circuit 26 is made by two identical elementary magnetic circuits 28 and 28 ′ in the shape of letter C or horseshoe which are joined by their opening.
  • the two cylinders 20 and 22 define therebetween, on either side of the central partition 24, an annular compartment 30 and 30 ′ which serves as a housing for support elements of each secondary circuit.
