Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018162437A1] The invention relates to a cooling device for x-ray tubes in x-ray generators, comprising a housing with a central receiving device for receiving an x-ray tube with an inlet opening for supplying a gaseous coolant, an outlet opening for discharging the gaseous coolant, and a gas-conducting channel which extends between the inlet opening and the outlet opening. The gas-conducting channel is designed to conduct the gaseous coolant directly by the high-voltage x-ray tube housing during operation. The gas-conducting channel additionally extends in a helical manner about the x-ray tubes such that the electric potential applied to the x-ray tubes drops to zero potential along the gas-conducting channel.
