  • Patent number: 11558082
    Abstract: A device includes a first and a second part, relatively rotatable, and data transmission structures for contactless transmission of data. The data transmission structures include a transmit and/or receive facility a coupling facility on the two parts. The transmit and/or receive facility extends over a small angle and the coupling facility extends over a complete circle. Data is transmitted between the facilities at a transmission frequency. The two parts include walls encompassing a tunnel interior space extending completely around the axis of rotation. The data transmission structures are arranged in the tunnel interior space. The walls are electrically conductive structures reflecting electromagnetic alternating fields in the transmission frequency range. An absorber structure is arranged at least on a part of the walls toward the tunnel interior space and the absorber structure absorbs electromagnetic alternating fields in the range of the transmission frequency.

  • Patent number: 10856824
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention relates to a cooling system for an imaging apparatus having a gantry for cooling components arranged in the gantry, including a fan and a solid body. The solid body has an inlet opening, and an outlet opening, wherein the inlet opening is larger than the outlet opening. The solid body also has a positive guide, defined by a continuous outer boundary, for a first fluid from the inlet opening to the outlet opening, which continuously transforms the geometry of the inlet opening into the geometry of the outlet opening and defines a flow path for the first fluid, and has a flow channel for a second fluid, which is arranged in heat exchange communication with the flow path, and has an inlet and an outlet for the second fluid.

  • Publication number: 20120082288
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to an arrangement for the contactless transmission of first electrical signals, second electrical signals and electrical energies between a fixed gantry part of a computed tomography system and a gantry part that may be rotated around an axis of rotation. The arrangement includes a first annular-shaped carrier ring arranged on the rotatable gantry part, at least a first conductor element arranged in or on the first annular-shaped carrier ring to receive the electrical energy, and at least a second conductor element arranged in or on the first annular-shaped carrier ring to output the first electrical signals.
