Drive for rotary anode with stator with yoke winding

An x-ray arrangement comprising:

• a vacuum container;
• a rotary anode and a rotor of an electrical machine disposed in the vacuum container, wherein the rotary anode and the rotor have a torque-proof connection to one another and are rotatably supported in the vacuum container, so that the rotary anode and the rotor are rotatable around an axis of rotation;
• a laminated stator core of the electrical machine, which, viewed in a direction of the axis of rotation, is disposed in an area of the rotor and encloses the vacuum container radially outwards;
• and
• a stator winding system disposed in the laminated stator core, the stator winding system comprising yoke windings, wherein turns of the yoke windings run in grooves from a first axial end of the laminated stator core to a second axial end of the laminated stator core radially outwards, on an outer side of the laminated stator core, back to the first axial end of the laminated stator core, and radially inwards to the corresponding groove,
• wherein the laminated stator core is divided into segments in a cross sectional plane orthogonal to the axis of rotation, each segment comprising a pair of teeth, a first tooth of the pair pointing radially inward and a second tooth of the pair pointing radially outward, opposite the first tooth, and wherein a yoke winding is disposed on each segment of the laminated stator core and positioned between adjacent pairs of teeth,
• wherein the segments are configured such that boundary surfaces intersect a radial beam at an intersection point, therein dividing the respective boundary surface centrally in the cross-sectional plane and providing an angle greater than 0° as measured between the radial beam extending outward from the axis of rotation and the boundary surface extending toward the outer side of the laminated stator core,
• wherein each boundary surface is provided between immediately adjoining segments that adjoin each other along a plane extending between a first adjoining segment at the inner side of the laminated stator core at the radially inward pointing tooth of the first adjoining segment and a second adjoining segment at the outer side of the laminated stator core at the radially outward pointing tooth of the second adjoining segment.
