A high-voltage generator for an X-ray device includes an input-side inverter unit, an output-side rectifier unit and a transformer connected between the inverter unit and the rectifier unit. The inverter unit is configured to generate two inverter voltages that are phase-shifted with respect to each other. These inverter voltages are transformed by the transformer into two rectifier voltages that are fed to the rectifier unit such that in no-load operation, one of the two rectifier voltages is proportional to the sum of the inverter voltages while the other of the two rectifier voltages is proportional to the difference between the inverter voltages.

Provided is a radiation irradiation device that can improve the degree of freedom of an arm part and can reduce the number of noise suppression components, such as a ferrite core. A radiation irradiation device includes a radiation generating part having a radiation source that generates radiation; an arm part having the radiation generating part attached to one end thereof; and a main body part having the other end of the arm part connected thereto. The main body part has a power source part including a three-phase inverter circuit. The power source part supplies a three-phase alternating current voltage to the radiation generating part via the arm part.

An X-ray inspection system that can simply and automatically perform aging without separately preparing a shutter moving member including a dedicated motor or a guide member for aging is provided. When power is supplied, a stage moves in X and Y directions by activating a stage moving mechanism, and an X-ray source stops at an aging position below an X-ray shielding plate disposed beside a support plate on the stage. In this state, aging is started. When the aging is ended, an input of an imaging instruction for X-ray imaging is waited for.

A radiation imaging system includes a radiation source and a notifying unit. The radiation source is for still image shooting and moving image shooting performed by the radiation imaging system to obtain image data of a subject. The notifying unit notifies whether a type of imaging to be performed is the still image shooting or the moving image shooting in a mode in which the type is instinctively recognizable by at least one of sense of sight, sense of hearing, and sense of touch.
