Abstract
A radiation imaging apparatus includes a radiation detection panel, a housing configured to accommodate the radiation detection panel, and a buffer member. The housing has an opening in a corner. The buffer member includes a first portion fixed inside the housing and a second portion protruding from the opening of the housing to an outside of the housing. An elastic modulus of the second portion of the buffer member is lower than an elastic modulus of a portion of the housing which forms the opening.
Claims16
A radiation imaging apparatus comprising:
- a radiation detection panel;
- a housing configured to accommodate the radiation detection panel, said housing providing an incident plane that is irradiated with radiation, a reversed surface opposite to the incident plane and a side surface connecting the incident plane and the reversed surface;
- and
- a buffer member, wherein
- the housing has an opening in a corner, said opening being formed at the side surface, and
- the buffer member includes a first portion fixed inside the housing and a second portion protruding from the opening of the housing to an outside of the housing.
A radiation imaging apparatus comprising:
- a radiation detection panel;
- a housing configured to accommodate the radiation detection panel;
- and
- a buffer member, wherein
- the housing has an opening in a corner,
- the buffer member includes a first portion present inside the housing and a second portion protruding from the opening of the housing to an outside of the housing,
- an elastic modulus of the second portion of the buffer member is lower than an elastic modulus of a portion of the housing which forms the opening, and
- the first portion of the buffer member is disposed on an inner surface of the housing with a frame shape so as to surround the radiation detection panel.
A radiation imaging system comprising:
- a radiation imaging apparatus;
- and
- a signal processing unit for processing a signal obtained by the radiation imaging apparatus,
- wherein the radiation imaging apparatus comprises:
- a radiation detection panel;
- a housing configured to accommodate the radiation detection panel, said housing providing an incident plane that is irradiated with radiation, a reversed surface opposite to the incident plane and a side surface connecting the incident plane and the reversed surface;
- and
- a buffer member, wherein
- the housing has an opening in a corner, said opening being formed at the side surface, and
- the buffer member includes a first portion fixed inside the housing and a second portion protruding from the opening of the housing to an outside of the housing.
