  • Process for repairing an anode for emitting x-rays and repaired anode
    Patent number: 10325749
    Abstract: A process for repairing a damaged annular region of an anode configured to emit x-rays includes the step of machining the damaged annular region made of an initial target coating to a depth smaller than a thickness of the coating so as to leave behind a residual annular layer. An intermediate layer is then deposited on the residual annular layer. A repairing layer is then deposited on the intermediate layer. A heat treatment is then performed using an anneal which causes, by interdiffusion and formation of a solid solution, the material of the intermediate layer and the material of the residual annular layer to diffuse into each other and further cause the material of the intermediate layer and the material of the repairing layer diffuse into each other. As a result of this anneal the intermediate layer disappears.

  • PROCESS FOR TREATING AND RECEPTACLE FOR CONFINING AN ANODE FOR PRODUCING X-RAYS
    Publication number: 20170162360
    Abstract: Process for treating and receptacle for confining an anode, wherein the anode is placed in a confining receptacle that envelops this anode while leaving uncovered an annular coating zone of a frontal face of this anode, which is defined by an aperture of the receptacle; in order to carry out a least one operation for treating said annular coating zone, implementing at least one treating gas.
