Publication number: 20230041571Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an X-ray device, and an X-ray device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: a radiator configured to radiate an X-ray; a distance measurement sensor configured to measure a value of a distance to an object; and a controller configured to acquire a first separation distance between an X-ray radiation focal point of the radiator and a subject, and control operation of the radiator based on the acquired first separation distance. Through these, the radiation of the X-ray can be prevented without a physical skin guard when the subject approaches within a certain distance from the radiator, thereby preventing the increase in the size caused by the installation of the physical skin guard, and a process of manually setting a strength of the X-ray radiation output according to the thickness of the subject can be omitted, thereby improving easiness of the X-ray imaging and reducing the time for the X-ray imaging.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2022Publication date: February 9, 2023Inventors: Jong Rae PARK, Ki Bong Sung

Patent number: 7417522Abstract: A high voltage transformer is small-sized, lightweight and less costly to fabricate. The high voltage transformer is designed to maintain equal the potential difference between the components of two transforming component groups and also to keep the components of the respective transforming component groups equipotential at the same distance in the direction extending from a first end to a second end. This eliminates the need to dispose an insulating body between the components of the first and second transforming component groups. This also makes it possible to fabricate the high voltage transformer with a small size and in a cost-effective manner.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2007Date of Patent: August 26, 2008Assignee: Poskom Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ki-Bong Sung, Jong-Lae Park
