ABSTRACT:
In the illustrative embodiment, an X-ray tube is attached to a rotary mounting, and the structural elements of the X-ray generator on the high voltage side are disposed on the rotary mounting in an oil-filled tank; for the transfer of energy, a rotating current coupling is provided between the rotary mounting and a stationary energy supply installation, e.g. a mains rectifier. The anode of the X-ray tube is connected to ground potential.
