X-ray tube device and x-ray CT apparatus
Abstract:
There is provided an X-ray tube device having a configuration for preventing peeled-off solid lubrication films from scattering in an X-ray tube even when the solid lubrication film peels off a rotary bearing. The X-ray tube device includes: an anode (212) that is irradiated with an electron beam, thereby emitting X-rays; a rotary bearing (304) that rotatably supports the anode (212); a solid lubrication film which is formed on a front surface of the rotary bearing (304) and into which a ferromagnet is mixed from the rotary bearing (304); and an attractor (303) which attracts, with a magnetic force, the solid lubrication film that peels off the rotary bearing (304).
