The electron beam is typically dynamically steered after its generation on the path to the target. The steering is performed by one or more source coils. These coils produce the magnetic field outside the vacuum vessel allowing air/water/oil cooling to remove undesired heat. The magnetic field is then picked up inside the vacuum vessel with pole pieces and guided towards the region where the magnetic field is needed to steer the electron beam.

The present application provides a combined machine head and a ray imaging device, wherein the combined machine head comprises: a housing, having an enclosed cavity; a ray tube, arranged in the enclosed cavity; and a pump and a pipe, arranged in the enclosed cavity; wherein the pump is arranged on one side away from an anode of the ray tube, the pipe has one end connected with an outlet of the pump and another end extending to be near the anode of the ray tube; or the pump is arranged near the anode of the ray tube, the pipe has one end connected to an inlet of the pump and another end extending to one side away from the anode of the ray tube. In the present application, when the pump works, insulation medium at positions away from the anode is drawn to the vicinity of the anode, and the insulation medium in the enclosed cavity is driven to cycle, so as to gradually reduce the temperature difference between the position of the anode and other positions, allowing the temperature gradient of the insulation medium in the enclosed cavity to be distributed more uniformly.

The present invention relates to a portable X-ray tube, and more particularly, to a portable X-ray tube capable of miniaturization and weight reduction by reducing the structural volume of the X-ray tube by installing cathodes in the same direction together with the fixed anode. The portable X-ray tube comprises: an anode portion comprising an anode heat sink for conducting and dissipating heat transferred through the anode, an anode formed on the upper part of the anode heat sink, and an anode target formed on the inclined surface of the upper end of the anode; a cathode portion installed in parallel with the anode through the installation hole of the cathode portion formed in the anode heat sink; and a vacuum bulb fixed to the heat sink to seal the anode portion and the cathode portion with a vacuum; wherein the X-rays emitted through the anode target are irradiated to the upward direction as the installation direction of the anode.

An X-ray tube includes an electron gun, a target that generates X-rays, and a vacuum housing that accommodates the electron gun and the target. The vacuum housing has a metal portion having an X-ray emission window, and an insulation valve connected to the metal portion. The metal portion has a cylinder portion in which the X-ray emission window is provided and which surrounds a tube axis of the vacuum housing, and a tapered portion which is connected to an end portion of the cylinder portion, surrounds the tube axis, and protrudes such that a connection part between the metal portion and an insulation valve is covered. The tapered portion has a shape increased in diameter such that a separation distance between a distal end portion and the tube axis is longer than a separation distance between a base end portion and the tube axis.
