Abstract

An HV insulator system for a mono-polar X-ray device includes a top of an insulator including a substantially cone-shaped central portion. A bottom of the insulator defines a flat surface on which the HV contacts are adapted to receive spring loaded pins from HV connectors. A flanged outer edge of the top and bottom is adapted for coupling to an HV connector. The top defines an inverse cone central channel coaxial with the cone-shaped central portion and adapted to receive the HV conductor. The substantially cone-shaped portion further defines the inverse cone channel such that a base of the inverse cone channel is defined at a tapered apex of the substantially cone-shaped central portion.
