The thermoelectrons emitted from the filament 2 in the cathode 1 are attracted and accelerated by the anode 3 and collide with the target 4 embedded in the anode 3. X-rays are generated by the braking radiation effect at the time of collision, and are radiated to the outside from the radiation window 24, and are radiated to the X-ray irradiation target 56.

Together with this, the X-ray tube is housed in the vacuum envelope 6. The vacuum envelope 6 and the support member 5 are connected by the envelope joint material 7, and the inside is hermetically sealed in vacuum.

る。Since the anode 3 is placed in a vacuum, it radiates heat to the outside, but if the intensity of the electron beam irradiated is increased, the temperature of the target 4 may rise and deterioration may proceed. Therefore, in a large-capacity fixed anode X-ray tube, as shown in FIG. 2, a hole is made in the anode 3 from the back surface side of the target 4, a cooling nozzle 8 is inserted, and insulating oil supplied through the insulating pipe 10 is supplied. , Is sprayed onto the cooling surface 9 to cool the anode 3. The sprayed insulating oil is sent to the radiator 53 provided outside as shown in FIG. 8 through the gap 12 between the side wall inner surface 11 and the cooling nozzle 8, the inside of the support material 5 and the support material 13, and is cooled by the pump 52. It is supplied to the X-ray tube again. The reason why the insulating oil is used for cooling is that a high voltage of about 100 kV is applied to the anode, so that the anode must be electrically insulated from the outside. The insulating pipe 10 and the insulating support material 57 are used for the same reason.

The heat generated in the target 4 due to the generation of the rays moves to the anode 3 by heat conduction, is dissipated in the insulating oil on the cooling surface 9, and is discharged to the outside.

冷却面構造が必要とされている。In the above prior art, the cooling surface 9 and the side wall inner surface 11 are smooth surfaces because of the ease of processing. Furthermore, since the gap 12 between the cooling nozzle 8 and the side wall inner surface 11 is large, the flow velocity of the insulating oil flowing through the gap 12 is small, and the amount of heat radiated from the side wall inner surface 11 to the insulating oil is small. Therefore, when the incident energy of thermoelectrons increases above a predetermined value, the temperatures of the anode 3 and the target 4 rise, and the target surface deteriorates rapidly, which shortens the life of the device. Further, there is a problem that the surface temperature of the cooling surface 9 becomes high and the insulating oil deteriorates. Further, there is a demand for downsizing of the X-ray apparatus itself, and a cooling surface structure of the anode 3 that is small and highly efficient that can handle a large heat load is required.

である。It has been known for a long time in general thermal equipment that it is effective to install fins on the cooling surface to increase the heat transfer area in order to improve the efficiency of the cooling structure. But,
In the case of the cooling surface of the fixed anode type X-ray tube, since the cooling nozzle is inserted into the cylindrical cooling surface having the bottom, there is a problem that the fin cannot be easily processed on the cooling surface. The above-mentioned fin processing is possible if drawing is performed using a mold, but the mold itself is expensive and is not suitable for the production of fixed anode X-ray tubes in small volume production, and is suitable for small volume production. What is needed is a method of making an anode having a finned cooling surface.

The cooling insulating oil is sprayed on the bottom surface 22 having the number 3. The bottom surface fins 23 may not be installed. When the bottom surface fins 23 are installed, the heat transfer area increases, and the heat dissipation at the bottom surface 22 increases, so that the temperature of the anode 3 can be lowered.

Further, since the joining surfaces 15, 16 and 17 of the anode 3 which requires the most airtightness in the vacuum envelope 6 are simultaneously joined with the same brazing material having a high melting temperature, the number of brazing can be reduced. . Furthermore, as compared with the case where brazing is performed one by one, there is a possibility that the location where the brazing is performed first is melted again by the heat in the subsequent process and the airtightness is impaired due to the proximity of the joining location. Without this, reliable brazing work can be performed.

The number of brazing points may be reduced. See also FIG.
As shown in, the outer diameter of the connecting portion between the anode bottom portion 3a and the anode side wall portion 3b is increased so that the area of the anode bottom joint surface 16 is increased, and the thermal resistance of the joint portion between the anode bottom portion 3a and the anode side wall portion 3b is increased.

The sidewall fins 21 may be provided on the top. In this case, in order to keep the gap 12 constant, the nozzle cover 20 is aligned with the inner surface 11 of the side wall to have a conical surface shape. With the above structure, the area of the anode bottom bonding surface 16 increases, and the anode bottom 3a
The heat resistance from the anode side wall portion 3b to the anode side portion 3b is reduced, and more heat is transferred from the anode bottom portion 3a having a high temperature to the anode side wall portion 3b, so that the temperature of the target 4 can be lowered. Further, since the joining area is increased, joining by brazing can be performed more reliably.

い。When manufacturing an X-ray tube in a relatively large amount,
There is a method of manufacturing the anode 3 by manufacturing a mold in which the side wall fins 21 and the bottom surface fins 23 can be integrally formed with the anode 3, and then pulling out the mold after casting. Although it is costly to manufacture the mold, it is advantageous when a large number of anodes having the same shape are manufactured. By brazing the anode cylinder 14 and the support material 5 to the anode 3, it is possible to manufacture an X-ray tube with high cooling efficiency similar to that of the first embodiment. The description of the same effect will be omitted for avoiding duplication, but this embodiment has an advantage that the number of brazing points of the anode 3 represented by 16 in FIG. 1 is reduced by one in comparison with the first embodiment. In the above-described embodiment, the bottom surface fins 23 may not be provided when the anode temperature is low enough to be used.

1に設置する構成としてもよい。As shown in FIG. 6, even when the side wall inner surface 11 of the anode side wall portion 3b has a conical shape, the same effect as that of the above-described embodiment can be obtained. In the above-described embodiment, when the bottom surface fins 23 are provided, the bottom surface fins 23 are installed radially from the center of the bottom surface to the outer periphery of at least the radius of the cooling nozzle 8 as shown in FIG. , The anode side wall fins at least from the bottom surface 22 to a position higher than the height h2 of the cooling surface bottom fins by the side wall inner surface 1
It may be configured to be installed at 1.

びターゲット4の温度を低下することができる。In the portion directly below the cooling nozzle 8, the insulating oil flowing out from the cooling nozzle 8 has a high flow velocity. If the bottom surface fins 23 are installed in this portion, the flow velocity is large, so that the pressure loss is large and the flow rate of the insulating oil may be reduced. Further, the bottom surface 22 immediately below the cooling nozzle 8 has a high heat transfer coefficient even if it is a smooth surface. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, the bottom surface fins 23 are installed from at least the radius of the cooling nozzle 8 and the flow rate of the insulating oil that decreases toward the outer periphery of the bottom surface 22 is reduced by the flow path between the bottom surface fins 23. By restricting the heat transfer coefficient to 1, it is possible to prevent the heat transfer coefficient from decreasing, improve the average heat transfer coefficient of the entire bottom surface 22 as compared with the case of a smooth surface, and reduce the temperatures of the anode 3 and the target 4. .

As a result, there is a uniform flow when flowing into the gap 12, and the heat dissipation to the insulating oil on the inner surface of the anode side wall portion 3b is ensured.

絶縁油劣化防止のために望ましい。FIG. 9 shows the relationship between the fin height h of the side wall fins 21 and the center temperature of the anode bottom surface 22, which has the highest temperature in the cooling surface of the anode 3 and affects the deterioration of the insulating oil.
Shown in. When the fin height h is small, the heat transfer area is small, the amount of heat dissipation is small, and the temperature at the center of the anode bottom surface 22 is high. On the other hand, even if the fin height h is increased to a predetermined value or more, the fin efficiency of the sidewall fins 21 decreases,
Since the insulating oil flow rate decreases due to the increase in pressure loss, the amount of heat dissipation reaches saturation and the effect on the temperature decrease decreases. Considering physical properties such as thermal conductivity and viscosity of the insulating oil used, it is desirable that the fin height h of the side wall fins 21 be 1 to 4 mm in order to prevent deterioration of the insulating oil.

望ましい。FIG. 11 shows the relationship between the fin pitch p of the anode sidewall fins 21 and the center temperature of the anode bottom surface 22. When the fin pitch p is small, the pressure loss in the flow path between the side wall fins 21 becomes large, so that the flow rate of the insulating oil decreases and the amount of heat dissipation becomes small. Get higher On the other hand, if you increase the fin pitch,
Assuming that fins of the same height and thickness are used, the number of fins is reduced, the heat transfer area is reduced, the amount of heat dissipation is reduced, and the temperature at the center of the anode bottom surface 22 is reduced. Will be higher. Considering physical properties such as thermal conductivity and viscosity of the insulating oil used, it is desirable that the fin height h of the side wall fins 21 be 1 to 4 mm in order to prevent deterioration of the insulating oil.
