4 Claims. (Cl. 313-64) This invention pertains to particle accelerators and more particularly to a means for rapidly obtaining different types of radiation from a particle accelerator.
A considerable amount of the research being performed today utilizes a particle accelerator as a source of charged particles such as electrons, positive ions, X-rays, gamma rays, neutrons and the like. Two commonly-used accelerators are the Van de Graaff generator and the linear accelerator. In both of these accelerators a beam of electrons is accelerated to a high velocity and directed through a beam tube so that it will pass through a window or impinge upon a target positioned over the exit of the scanning section of the beam tube. When .it is desired to produce a beam of electrons the electron beamxIo-f. the accelerator is passed through an aluminum window while if X-rays are to be produced the'electron-beam vof.the accelerator is made to'impinge on a gold target. Presently-used accelerators require that in order tochange fromIan electron beam to an X-ray beam one must remove the aluminum window and replace it with a gold target ,and're-establish the vacuum in the scanning section of the beam tube of the accelerator. The re-establishing of the vacuum in the beam tube is a relatively long process due to the high vacuum required, thus the total time required to'change accelerators from one type of radiation to another is a few hours which means that the accelerator is quite inflexible. the accelerator is particularly bad in those situations where the accelerator is used to perform basic research since very seldom doconsecutive experiments require the same type of radiation;
I: Accordingly, his the primary object of this invention to provide a means for rapidly changing the character of the energy beam of a particle accelerator.
A further object of this invention is to provide a means for rapidly changing the character of the energy beam of a particle accelerator having a scanning tube sectionby positioning various types of windows or targets in line with the beam tube of the accelerator.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a particle accelerator with a scanning tube section having a plurality of chambers in order that a plurality of windows or targets may be positioned below the exit of the scanning tube section.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a particle accelerator with a scanning tube section one end of which is both pivotally and hermetically secured to the exit end of the beam tube of the accelerator and whose other end is provided with a plurality of flanged openings. Various scanning windows or targets may be hermetically attached to the flanged openings in order that the beam tube may be rotated about its pivoted end to selectively align one of the scanning windows or targets with the axis of the beam tube.
The above objects of this invention are achieved by providing a particle accelerator with a scanning tube section one end of which is pivotally connected to the beam tube and the other end of which is provided with a plu- This inflexibility of Patented Nov. 8, [1960 ICC rality of flanged openings to which various scanning windows ortargets may be attached. In addition to being pivotally connected to the beam tube the scanning tube section is hermetically sealed to the beam tube and each of the flanged openings in the other end are hermetically closed by a scanning window or target. In order to align various scanning windows or targets with the axis of the beam tube all that is necessary is to rotate the scanning tube section about its pivot which in turn will bring a difierent scanning window or target into alignment with the axis of the beam tube.
The above and other objects of this invention will be more easily understood by those skilled in the art from the following description of a preferred embodiment when taken in conjunction with the attached drawing in which:
Figure 1 is a front view of a portion of the beam tube of the accelerator with the scanning tube section of this invention attached thereto;
Figure 2 is an end view of the scanning tube section shown in Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a horizontal section taken along the line 3--3 of the scanning tube section; and
' Figure 4 is a bottom view of the scanning tube section taken along the line 44 of' Figure l'.
Referring to Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4, there is shown a scanning tube section 10 which is pivotally and hermetically' fastened to the lower end 12 of the beam tube 11 of the particle accelerator. The particle accelerator may be. either a Van de Graatf generator or a linear accelerator or'any other accelerator which produces a beam of electrons and discharges them through a beam tubes The scanningtube section 10 consists of a flared tubular section having an oblong cross section as shown in Figure 3, preferably formed of a relatively light material having substantially no interaction with electrons such as aluminum or the like. In order to permit the -'tubular section 13 to be formed of relatively thin material suitable stiffening members 14 and 15 are attached to the flat sides of the lower portion of the tubular member to increase its rigidity. A flange 16 is secured to the upper end of the tube section 13 by any desired means such as welding or the like. A similar flange or plate member 22 is secured to the lower end 12 on beam tube 11. The opposite ends of a bellows 20 are hermetically sealed to the flange members 16 and 21 by any desired means such as welding or the like. The opposite ends ofthe bellows 20 may be provided with flanges similar to the flanges 16 and 22 with the flanges being hermetically secured to the flanges 16 and 22 by means of bolts and gaskets.
Two diametrically opposed ears or lug-type members 23 are secured to the outeredge of the flange 16 by any desired means such as welding or the like. Two similar ears or lugs 24 are secured to the flange 21 by welding or the like and are positioned so that they overlap the ears 23. A pivot pin or bolt 25 passes through holes formed in the overlap portions of the two ears 23 and 24 thus forming a hinged joint having limited movement between scanner tube section 10 and the beam tube 11. The pivot pin 25 should be a relatively tight fit in the openings in the cars 23 and 24 to eliminate all unnecessary clearance in this hinged joint and insure accurate alignment of the scanning tube section with the beam tube of the accelerator.
The lower end of the tube section 13 is provided with two oblong- shaped flange members 30 and 31. These flanged members may be attached to the tube section 13 by any desired means such as welding or the like and in addition may be formed from a single member if desired. Each of the flanged members 30 and 31 are provided with a plurality of tapped holes 34 in order that a variety of scanning windows 36 and 37 may be secured to the flanged openings by use of machine screws 35. Of course,
in the scanning tube section.
suitablelprecautions must be taken to insure a hermetical seal between the scanning windows and the flanges in order to permit one to obtain the high vacuum necessary The plane of the flange members 30 and 31'should besubstantially perpendicular to the axis of each half of the scaningtube section 12 as seen in Figure 2.
Two clips'or ears 40 are attached by welding orthe like to the opposite side walls of the tubular section 13 as shown in Figures 1 and 2. Rod'members 41 which are provided with a forked-end 42 at one end are connected to the clips 40 by passing a toggle pin 43 or the like through an'opening in the clips and similaropenings in the forked end 42 of the rods "41. The opposite ends of the rods 41 not shown inFigures l and 2 are secured to any structure surrounding the particle accelerator bymeans of toggle pins or the like in order to maintain the scanning tube'section in a predetermined fixed position. Of course when'it is'desired to reposition the scanning tube section to align a diflerent'scanning window with the axis of the beam tube, rods having different lengths will berequircd. The same rods may be used for all positions of the scanning tube section if suitable provisions are made for adjusting their length. Likewise, other means may be used to lock the scanning tube section in each position.
When the above-described scanningtube section is attached to a beam tube of a particle accelerator all that is required to align a different scanning window or target with the axis of the beam tube is to rotate the beam tube section about the hinge joint 25 and lock it in position by installing the proper length rods 41.
While but one embodiment of this invention has been described in detail, many modifications and changeswill occur to those skilled in the art.
