Definitions

  • the invention provides a rotary anode X-ray source comprising an X-ray tube, a rotatable anode disposed inside the X-ray tube, wherein the rotatable anode is configured to rotate about its central axis, and an anode drive comprising a rotor, which is connected with the rotatable anode.
  • US 2015/170870 Al describes a rotary anode arrangement with a rotary anode, a rotor for driving the rotary anode and a stator, which exerts a torque on the rotor.
  • the stator includes at least one coil for generating a first magnetic field and at least one permanent magnet for generating a second magnetic field.
  • the embodiments also relate to an X-ray tube with the rotary anode arrangement.
  • DE102014203305 Al describes a drive system for gantry of a computed tomography (CT) scanner used in medical imaging field.
  • the drive system has outwardly projecting rotor teeth that is provided with soft magnetic characteristics, so that the rotor is designed for a magnetic return path.
  • Rotary anode X-ray sources generally employ asynchronous motors, ASM, for driving the rotatable anode.
  • Asynchronous motors are known as being robust and having a simple structure.
  • asynchronous motors in X-ray tubes has some disadvantages including high reactive power demand and low efficiency. This is due, for example, to the relatively large air gap between rotor and stator associated with X-ray tubes. Therefore, the power factor may be below 0.5 and the power consumption of the anode drive motor may be as high as 50 % of the entire X-ray tube loss. Moreover, size reduction in terms of axial length is difficult in ASM applications.
  • the invention provides a rotary anode X-ray source, a method for manufacturing an X- ray source, and a method for operating an X-ray source.
  • the rotary anode X-ray source comprises an X-ray tube, a rotatable anode disposed inside the X-ray tube, wherein the rotatable anode is configured to rotate about its central axis, and an anode drive comprising a rotor, which is connected with the rotatable anode.
  • the anode drive is a flux switching machine (FSM), and the rotor is a solid rotor.
  • FSM flux switching machine
  • the X-ray source of the present disclosure overcomes at least some of the above problems, by employing a flux switching machine with a solid rotor.
  • Flux switching machines provide the relatively high power density of a permanent magnet synchronous motor while still being robust.
  • the construction of flux switching machines for X-ray sources is difficult, among others, because the ultra-clean vacuum environment of an X-ray source is very sensitive to contamination.
  • FSMs are not designed to be employed in a vacuum environment.
  • known FSM rotors are laminated rotors assembled from multiple component parts, such as multiple sheets. Consequently, such rotors have a large surface area that may carry contaminants and there is also a risk that assembly, e.g., lamination, will lead to air-pockets being entrapped between the component parts after assembly.
  • the air-pockets and contaminants may then be released into the X-ray tube vacuum environment and deteriorate the vacuum. Careful preparation and assembly may be required to employ such rotors in the X-ray tube.
  • the present invention may simplify construction and assembly of X-ray tubes incorporating an anode drive for a rotating anode by reducing the risk of contaminating the vacuum of the tube.
  • the X-ray source proposed by the present disclosure may allow for improved power density and efficiency without increasing the risk of deterioration of the vacuum.
  • solid rotor refers to a rotor that is not laminated. Nor does the solid rotor comprise lamellae.
  • the solid rotor may be made from a single piece of material. This is advantageous for low risk of deteriorating the vacuum.
  • the solid rotor e.g. a rotor from a single piece of material
  • materials have to be employed that lead to comparatively low upper limits for the operating temperature, as said materials start deteriorating at relatively low temperatures. The deterioration of these materials is often accompanied by a deterioration of the vacuum when the materials evaporate. In the solid rotors of the present disclosure, material deterioration only occurs at higher temperatures.
  • the rotor being connected with the anode means that a rotation of the rotor effects a rotation of the anode, and, particularly, may refer to a mechanical connection, more particularly, a rigid mechanical connection.
  • the solid rotor dimensions may be selected to reduce eddy currents, while maintaining power density.
  • Eddy currents may be a major source of losses and may be particularly prevalent in rotors that are solid.
  • the advantage of reducing eddy currents is that it decreases losses.
  • Reducing eddy currents by constructing the rotor with suitable dimensions is an easy and efficient way to reduce eddy currents as compared to, for example, employing more powerful cooling.
  • Eddy currents can be determined by known models with common calculation methods and/or can be empirically or semi-empirically determined for different rotor dimensions. Based on the determined eddy currents and power density, an optimization can be performed using known optimization methods.
  • the optimization may be performed taking into account constraints or boundary conditions, for example intended operating parameters.
  • the constraints may comprise a maximum operating temperature and/or maximum available cooling capability in terms of cooling the rotor.
  • a solid rotor of the present disclosure allows for higher maximum operating temperatures and/or may require less rigorous cooling than other types of rotors.
  • the optimization may also include optimizing for two or more parameters, one being the eddy currents and other parameters which may include, for example, overall X-ray source efficiency or heat generation.
  • the solid rotor dimension in the longitudinal direction may be equal to or less than 50 mm, in particular equal to or less than 45 mm, in particular equal to or less than 35 mm, in particular equal to or less than 25 mm.
  • the diameter of the of the solid rotor may be equal to or larger than 45 mm, in particular equal to or larger than 70 mm, in particular equal to or larger than 90 mm.
  • the ratio of diameter to longitudinal dimension may preferably be equal to or larger than 1, more preferably equal to or larger than 2 and even more preferably equal to or larger than 3.
  • the rotor may have an axial length of 30 mm and a diameter of 90 mm, i.e. a ratio equal to 3.
  • This length and diameter of the rotor may result from the optimization mentioned above and hence may lead to reduced losses in the tube. It is noted that compared to typical rotors used in X-ray tubes, the above-mentioned longitudinal dimensions amounts to a reduction in length by 50 % or more. That is, rotors of typical asynchronous motors have longitudinal dimensions of 90 mm upwards. A reduced longitudinal dimension of the rotor according to embodiments of the present invention may allow for an overall more compact and efficient X-ray source and may also be advantageous with respect to e.g. cost, cooling etc.
  • the solid rotor may be mounted using a rotor mounting without a shaft.
  • the advantage of such a mounting is that it contributes to size reduction. Furthermore, it also reduces overall weight of the motor arrangement, thereby further reducing energy consumption.
  • the cooling of the solid rotor can be made more efficient. For example, heat transfer may be effected more directly or, in other words, the thermal connection can be improved, as compared to using a mounting with a shaft. Improved cooling reduces the temperature increase associated with the motor losses.
  • the mounting construction that does not employ a shaft is less sensitive to bending, e.g., due to forces that occur when rotating the X-ray source, as would be the case when it is applied in CT scanners, for example.
  • the solid rotor may be mounted directly to a bearing, in particular a bearing to which the rotating anode is mounted.
  • the rotor may be mounted directly to a bearing flange, using a rotor mounting without a shaft.
  • the bearing may in particular be a spiral groove bearing. This is one suitable example for an advantageous mounting without a shaft that allows for efficient cooling and size reduction.

  • the hollow shaft may extend through the hollow portion of the solid rotor.

  • the solid rotor may, for example, be formed in the shape of a hollow cylinder having a gear-shape.
  • the solid rotor may be mounted to the bearing in such a manner as to allow for thermal conduction between the solid rotor and the rotating portion of the bearing, in particular, such that a surface of the bearing and a surface of the solid rotor are in direct contact or coupled only via one or more elements that are thermally conductive at operating temperature.
  • the solid rotor may be fixed to the bearing by means of screws or rivets or by means of welding or soldering or by means of casting.
  • the X-ray source may further comprise a cooling system, wherein the cooling system is thermally connected to the solid rotor via the mounting of the solid rotor, in particular, wherein the X-ray source may be configured such that, in operation, cooling of the solid rotor is effected by a heat exchange between a cooling fluid and the solid rotor via the mounting of the solid rotor, in particular the bearing to which the solid rotor is mounted.
