  • Patent number: 10631804
    Abstract: The present invention provides a heat transfer device, an X-ray detecting apparatus and an X-ray imaging equipment. The heat transfer device comprises a first heat transfer loop configured to implement heat transfer with an X-ray detector, a heater configured to heat a heat transfer fluid in the first heat transfer loop, a second heat transfer loop disposed to implement heat transfer with the X-ray detector and a radiator configured to cool the heat transfer fluid in the second heat transfer loop. Hence, heat transfer efficiency can be increased.

  • Patent number: 10213175
    Abstract: A heat sinking system and an imaging apparatus including the heat sinking system. The heat sinking system includes an air introducing portion, a capture portion and an air discharge portion. The air introducing portion is configured to introduce air from external, and to be in communication with heat sinking space, so that the introduced air flows into the heat sinking space and exchanges heat with a heat sinking object which is accommodated in the heat sinking space. The capture portion is configured to be in communication with the heat sinking space and the air discharge portion, and to capture air which flows from the heat sinking space to the capture portion and enable the captured air to flow into the air discharge portion. The air discharge portion is configured to discharge the air which flows in out of the capture portion to the external.

  • Patent number: 9921316
    Abstract: The present invention provides a thermal management system, an X-ray detection device and a CT apparatus. The thermal management system comprises a heater, an air mixing portion and a fan. The heater is provided at an air inlet of the air mixing portion. The air mixing portion provides an air mixing space for mixing exterior air that enters the air mixing portion with interior air of the air mixing portion. The fan is provided at an air outlet of the air mixing portion, and supplies the mixed air in the air mixing portion to a target object to be thermally managed. Therefore, a response time of the thermal management system to operate for an external temperature change may be lengthened, thus occurrence of abrupt change in a temperature of the target object as the external temperature changes abruptly may be avoided, improving a reliability of the thermal management system.
