Abstract
Process for treating and receptacle for confining an anode, wherein the anode is placed in a confining receptacle that envelops this anode while leaving uncovered an annular coating zone of a frontal face of this anode, which is defined by an aperture of the receptacle; in order to carry out a least one operation for treating said annular coating zone, implementing at least one treating gas.
Claims19
A process for treating a disc-shaped anode for producing x-rays, comprising:
- placing the anode in a confining receptacle that comprises a platen on which the anode rests, an annular wall protruding with respect to the platen and extending around the peripheral wall of the anode, and a cover placed on a frontal face of the anode, so that said annular wall and said cover define therebetween an annular aperture defining an uncovered annular zone on the frontal face of the anode placed in the receptacle;
- and
- carrying out a least one operation for treating said annular zone, implementing at least one treating gas.
A confining receptacle able to contain a disc-shaped anode for producing x-rays, comprising:
- a platen on which one of the radial faces of the anode is able to rest;
- an annular wall protruding with respect to the platen, extending around a peripheral wall of the anode, facing a periphery of the anode;
- and
- a cover configured to be placed on a frontal face of the anode;
- wherein said annular wall and said cover define therebetween an annular aperture defining an uncovered annular zone on a frontal face of the anode placed in the confining receptacle.
