Abstract:
The invention concerns an x-ray detector with a plurality of layers arranged one top of one another in the incident direction of the x-rays, whereby each of the layers comprises at least one photodiode and a luminophore layer applied thereon.
Abstract:
A radiation converter includes a radiation absorber for generating light photons dependent on the intensity of incident radiation following the radiation absorber by a photocathode, an electrode system for accelerating the electrons emanating from the photocathode onto an electron detector for generating electrical signals dependent on the incident electrons, and an electron multiplier arranged between the photocathode and the electron detector. The electrons emanating from the photocathode are multiplied by the electron multiplier.
Abstract:
An X-ray diagnostic installation has a storage luminescent screen for the latent storage of an X-ray image, an X-ray exposure unit for generating an X-ray beam, a readout system for causing the storage luminescent screen to luminesce by being scanned with a radiation source, a detector for acquiring the light emitted by the storage luminescent screen, and an image playback system. In a first operating mode, the X-ray exposure unit produces X-ray images with a first dose and the readout system implements a fast readout of the image area of the storage luminescent screen with low resolution. In a second operating mode, the X-ray exposure unit produces X-ray images in a limited region with a higher dose compared to the first dose, and this region of the image area of the storage luminescent screen is read out with high resolution.
Abstract:
A holding device for a motor, particularly for an electric fan wheel motor of a heating or air condition system of a motor vehicle, having an adapter which can be fixed on an exterior motor component and surrounds it at least partially on the circumference side, as well as having a motor holder connected with the adapter and having at least one vibration-uncoupling supporting element. According to the invention, primarily axially stressed supporting elements are provided between axially spaced parts of the adapter, on the one hand, and of the motor holder, on the other hand, or between the exterior motor component and a bottom surface of a cup-shaped adapter which can be fixed thereto, or such supporting elements which are mounted radially between motor holder fastening arms and adapter holding fingers, while being fastened on one part and engaging form-lockingly in receiving pockets on the other part. The holding device may be used, for example, for holding a fan motor of a motor vehicle air-conditioning system with a low vibration transmission and a reduced contribution to the noise development caused by the motor holder.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of determining the spatial field distribution and/or the spatial position of a useful field source, producing said field distribution, by means of a multichannel field measuring device which comprises a plurality of spatially distributed sensors which produce measured values which contain on the one hand useful measured values stemming from the useful field source and on the other hand noise measured values stemming from at least one noise field source, correction values being formed and superposed on the measured values so that compensated measured values are obtained which are compared with similarly compensated, mathematically derived reference values which are produced by a fictitious reference field source by means of the field sensors, the reference field source being determined for which the pattern of compensated reference values corresponds best to the pattern of compensated measured values.
Abstract:
In an electronic x-ray computed tomography apparatus that enables a scanning of approximately 360.degree., the electron beam is guided in an annularly fashioned magnet arrangement that has a U-shaped cross section. The U enables the guidance of the electron beam to the annular anode and enables the emergence of the x-radiation. The magnet arrangement is composed of a number of side-by-side U-shaped magnet elements arranged to form an annulus with a coil for excitation of the magnet element respectively arranged on the cross bar of each U. A single magnetic arrangement is thus used to generate both the electron beam guidance field and, by means of a sudden polarity reversal of a magnet element disposed at a desired deflection location, the deflection field.
Abstract:
A device for loading an ink fountain of a printing press directly from sealed cans of ink. The device includes a base plate having a pair of vertical threaded pillars laterally spaced to define a working area adequate to accommodate cans of ink in all normally available sizes. A pressure plate flatly superimposed above the working area has captive bushings which threadedly engage the pillars, the bushings being rotated in unison for lowering the pressure plate to the base plate. An aperture is generally centered in the base plate. Thus when the base plate is seated above the fountain and a can of ink having a puncture alined with the aperture is engaged between the pressure plate and the base plate, ink is squeezed through the aperture directly into the fountain accompanied by accordion type collapse of the can into empty flattened condition.
Abstract:
A liquid metal bearing includes at least one first bearing part and at least one second bearing part that have a non-positive fit connection to one another. At least one first ductile sealing layer is disposed at least partly between at least a first bearing part of the at least one bearing and a second bearing part of the at least one second bearing part.
Abstract:
A scintillator plate includes a substrate, a buffer layer, a scintillator layer arranged on the buffer layer, and a protective layer. The buffer layer and/or the protective layer is colored. The buffer layer and/or the protective layer include a proportion of carbonyl groups of greater than 5000 ppm.
Abstract:
A scintillator-photosensor sandwich is generated by gluing a first support frame onto an adhesive layer (covered with a protective film on the side facing the adhesive layer, the first frame having a size that (in terms of area) surrounds the scintillator-photosensor sandwich to be produced. The first support frame is placed onto a flat base that supports a first function layer (either a scintillator layer or a photosensor layer). The adhesive layer supported on the first support frame and the first function layer are laminarly assembled. The protective film is removed from the adhesive layer and a second function layer (the other of the scintillator layer or the photosensor layer not used as the first function layer) is assembled with the first function layer with the interposed adhesive layer.
