A rotating X-ray anode for generating X-radiation has an annular main body made of carbon-based material, an annular focal track covering, which is arranged on a focal track side of the main body, and a metal connection component, which is arranged radially inside relative to the main body. A radially outer portion of the connection component is formed by a tubular metal adapter. The radial outside surface of the adapter is at least partly joined, face to face and integrally, to at least a portion of the radial inside surface of the main body. An integral joining zone between the main body and the adapter extends over at least 75 percent of the area of the radial inside surface of the main body.

Rotating x-ray anode

A terminal for mechanical support of a heating element, includes a base device, a mounting device, the mounting device adapted to support the heating element, and a support device connecting the base device to the mounting device, the support device allowing displacement of the heating element about a radial axis and less than about 10% displacement of the heating element about a tangential and/or axial axis.

Terminal for mechanical support of a heating element

A thermal shielding system for thermally shielding a batch space of high-temperature furnaces includes at least one shielding element. The shielding element has an encasing wall formed of refractory metal sheet(s) and a ceramic material accommodated in the wall. The ceramic material is present in a particulate and/or fibrous structure and it is based on zirconium oxide (ZrO)

Thermal shielding system

A supporting system for a heating element includes a supporting member and a base member. The supporting member has a main extension direction extending substantially in a height direction and a proximal and distal end. The proximal end is adapted to support the heating element. The base member is connected via at least one hinge to a distal portion of the supporting member which distal portion is arranged distal from the proximal end. The supporting member is pivotable relative to the base member about a rotation axis which is oriented parallel to a substantially rigid direction.

Supporting system for a heating element and heating system

A support system for supporting a heating element is formed with a supporting member and a resilient system. The supporting member has a main extension direction extending substantially in a height direction and a proximal and distal end. The proximal end is adapted to support the heating element. The resilient system includes a spring element, which is coupled to a distal portion of the supporting member and provides resiliency of the supporting member in a resilient direction and substantially restricts movements of the supporting member in a rigid direction. Furthermore, the resilient system extends at least partially from the distal portion in the height direction towards the proximal end.

A first-wall component for a fusion reactor contains at least one heat shield having a first region inclined toward the plasma and a second region lying opposite the first region and formed of a graphitic material. The heat shield has one or more slots that end in the first or second regions and are oriented generally in the direction of an axis of the cooling tube. The components suitably cope with the mechanical stresses resulting both from production and from thermal cycling.
