Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0401901A2] The invention describes a generator for driving a rotating-anode X-ray tube (1), whose rotor (12) and stator (13, 14, 15) carry the high-tension potential on the anode side. Such a generator can be designed particularly simply according to the invention in that an isolating transformer (4) is provided whose primary winding (41) can be connected to an AC voltage source (2, 3), in that the secondary winding (42) of the isolating transformer is coupled to a rectifier (51) for supplying an invertor (7) which generates the AC current for the stator windings (13, 14, 15) from the rectified voltage, and in that the invertor is electrically connected to the high-tension generator (91). <IMAGE>
