Abstract: An on-board proton imaging system may include a continuous rotation gantry configured to generate proton beams during rotation thereof to penetrate a patient object, a beam detector arranged opposite of the gantry around the object and configured to receive residual proton beams having passed through the object, and a controller in communication with the gantry and a multilayer detector. The controller may be configured to instruct the gantry to generate the proton beams based on patient factors, receive data from the detector indicating at least an energy level of the residual beams, and generate a three-dimensional image based on the received data.

Abstract: A reinforcing connecting assembly is applied for a plurality of water pipes each of which includes a mouth portion defining an opening. The mouth portion includes a first curved portion. The reinforcing connecting assembly comprises a plurality of linking pieces and a connecting plate. Each of the linking pieces includes a connecting wall and two opposite side walls connected with the connecting wall. The connecting wall has a first surface abutting the first curved portion and a second surface opposite to the first surface. Each of the side walls includes a reinforcing portion. The reinforcing portions of the side walls are distant from each other and extend from two sides of the connecting wall toward a direction opposite to the first surface. The connecting plate connects the connecting wall of each of the linking pieces.
