Abstract (en)
In an X-ray generating apparatus, primarily for field use, comprising a casing (1) in which an X-ray tube (4) is arranged for emission of X-rays towards a beam port (13) provided in a wall (12) of said casing, the casing comprises means (5) for supplying a high voltage to said X-ray tube (4) and a radiation shielding (9, 10, 11), preferably made of lead, for preventing emission of X-rays in non-desired directions. At least part (14) of the shielding is applied externally to wall parts (12) of the casing surrounding the X-ray tube (4) and is protected against corrosion or mechanical damage by means of a protective cover (15), e.g. in the form of shock-absorbing rubber hose, which can be drawn onto the external shielding. <IMAGE>
