Static Electric Machine with X-Ray Apparatus, Late 19th Cent
The Equipment for an X-Ray Apparatus. The several parts required for the production of these rays are, 1) a static machine, or a supply from the street mains; an induction-coil; 2) a vacuum-tube in which the rays are excited; 3) the fluorescent screen, or fluoroscope; and 4) the photographic plate, on which the image of the part is taken.The Static Electric Machine, is enclosed in an oak frame with glass panels, and it is about five feet high by six feet long and about 2? feet deep. The revolving of 10 circular glass plates two feet or more in diameter generates electricity, which is conducted to the positive and negative poles in front of the machine, thereby establishing a circuit.
