Abstract: A cathode-housing suspension of an electron beam device having a tubular body of elongate shape with an exit window extending in the longitudinal direction and a connector end in one end of the tubular body is disclosed. The electron beam device further comprises a cathode housing having an elongate shape and comprising a free end and an attachment end remote to the free end, and the attachment end comprises an outwardly extending flange provided with threaded openings for set screws and non-threaded openings for attachment bolts, for attaching the attachment end to a corresponding socket of the tubular body, wherein a mechanism configured to bias the attachment end away from the socket are arranged in the tubular body.

Abstract: In order to improve the performance of an electron-beam device, the ends of the cathode housing is provided with dome-shaped structures.

Abstract: In a high-voltage X-ray tube, which a cathode, which is held at negative high voltage during operating conditions, and an anode, which is held at positive high voltage during operating conditions, are disposed opposite each other in a vacuumized inner space, the anode being attached to an anode insulation element in such a way that the anode insulation element has a cylindrical shape or a shape tapering toward the anode and includes an opening to receive a high-voltage plug, and a pipe structure is provided by means of which a coolant is able to be supplied to the anode. This coolant can be in particular insulating oil or another electrically non-conducting liquid. The pipe structure can, for example, be integrated completely into the interior of the anode insulation element, but can also be integrated into the surface of the high-voltage plug.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a high-voltage x-ray tube (R) with an inner vacuum chamber (11) in which lie, oriented opposite one another, a cathode (8) held at a negative high voltage during operating conditions and an anode (2) held at a positive high voltage during operating conditions, wherein the anode (2) is affixed to an anode isolation element (3a) such that the anode isolation element (3a) has a cylindrical form or a form tapering toward the anode (2) and comprises an opening (5a) to receive a high-voltage plug (12) and has a conductor structure (6/7) via which a coolant can be supplied to the anode (2). This coolant can be, in particular, an insulating oil or another electrically nonconductive liquid. The conductor structure (6/7) can, for example, be integrated completely into the interior of the anode isolation element (3a) but can also be integrated into the surface of the high-voltage plug (12).

Abstract: A fineblanking press having two groups of elements, the first group including an interchangeable die set having an upper die member, a lower die member and guide posts with the second group including a support plate, guide pins and an ejector element, the separate groups providing improved interchangeability, maintenance and stability.
