APPARATUS FOR A COMPACT HV INSULATOR FOR X-RAY AND VACUUM TUBE AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLING SAME

摘要

A modular insulator assembly for an x-ray tube includes an annular insulator having a cylindrical perimeter wall, the insulator constructed of an electrically insulative material. A wall member is fixedly attached to and extending beyond the cylindrical perimeter wall, and a first shield positioned adjacent to the wall member and having an end extending proximate a corner formed by the wall member and the insulator.
