Latest Patents
One of Janouin's latest patents is a safety device in a radiology machine. This device is designed for an X-ray unit and comprises an X-ray tube protected by a casing, which is cooled by a fluid circulating between the tube and the casing. The primary aim of this invention is to prevent any excess pressure of the cooling fluid in the casing. It features a rigid, hermetically sealed, and vacuum-tight cavity connected to the fluid circuit by a hydraulic connector. This connector is designed to open mechanically and automatically when the fluid pressure exceeds a predetermined threshold.
Another significant patent by Janouin involves X-ray tube cooling devices. This invention addresses the need for greater temperature stability in X-ray tubes. To achieve this, a substance is placed in the circulation space of the cooling fluid of the tube. The latent heat of fusion of this substance is utilized to absorb heat during the examination stage, melting in the process, and solidifying during the resting stage. This innovative approach is applicable to X-ray tubes, enhancing their performance.
