Abstract: An electron gun having: a cathode for emitting electrons; a first Wehnelt electrode equipped with a first aperture through which electrons are allowed to pass; and a second Wehnelt electrode that is equipped with a second aperture disposed at a predetermined position with respect to the cathode and the first aperture, and that is furnished at a position closer to the cathode than the first Wehnelt electrode, wherein: the cathode and the second Wehnelt electrode are included within a single assembly constituting a unitary body; and the assembly is detachably attached to the first Wehnelt electrode. Replacement of the cathode can be performed by detaching the cathode unit from the first Wehnelt electrode, and then ejecting the cathode unit out from the Wehnelt cover. The emitter of the cathode can thereby be reliably positioned with respect to the second aperture.

Abstract: Provided is an X-ray generator comprising a cathode for generating electrons; a rotating anode having a cylindrical electron impingement surface, an X-ray focal point being formed by a region in which the electrons impinge upon the electron impingement surface; and a Wehnelt electrode for imparting an electric field to the electrons emitted from the cathode. The Wehnelt electrode has a field formation surface for forming the electric field, and an electron passage aperture formed by the field formation surface. The field formation surface of the Wehnelt electrode is inclined with respect to a plane tangent to an outer circumferential surface of the rotating anode at the center of the X-ray focal point. The center of the cathode is in a plane orthogonal to the field formation surface and aligned with the center of the electron passage aperture.

Abstract: Provided is an X-ray generator for generating X-rays from an X-ray focal point that is a region in which electrons emitted from a filament impinge upon a rotating anode. The X-ray generator has a Wehnelt electrode for surrounding the filament, an attachment part formed integrally with the Wehnelt electrode, a pedestal to which the attachment part is attached, and a casing for housing the pedestal and the anticathode. The width of the space in which the anticathode is housed by the casing is less than the width of the space in which the pedestal is housed by the casing. The Wehnelt electrode extends into the space in which the anticathode is housed by the casing, in a state in which the attachment part is attached to the pedestal.

Abstract: A rotary shaking separator for separating unhulled rice and unpolished rice from each other includes at least one separating vessel and a plurality of drives located at even intervals on the peripheral edge of the separating vessel, the plurality of drives being actuated to bring the whole of the separating vessel into a rotationally shaking motion.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a rotary shaking separator, which can maintain a constant separating accuracy without any failure in separation which might possibly occur in the same separating vessel, and which is not required to have a rotary shaft inserted though a central portion of the separating vessel.
