Abstract
A portable radiographic imaging apparatus includes a sensor and a case that houses sensor panel. Radiation detector elements are arrayed two-dimensionally in the sensor panel. The case comprises a corner where two side walls are adjacent. The side walls are made of a continuous fiber reinforced resin that comprises one or more fiber layers oriented in a predetermined direction. The fiber layers are oriented in a direction from one to the other of the adjacent side walls in the corner. A breakpoint where the fiber layers are discontinuous over an entire thickness in a wall thickness direction is not present in an area of at least one of the corners.
Claims15
A portable radiographic imaging apparatus;
- comprising:
- a sensor panel comprising two-dimensionally arrayed radiation detector elements;
- and
- a case that houses the sensor panel, wherein:
- the case comprises a front member or a back member that is composed of resin sheet material and that comprises a first part and a second part,
- the first part comprises:
- a rectangular incident plate forming part that forms an incident plate where radiation is incident;
- and
- four side wall forming parts that continue from four sides of the incident plate forming part, respectively, and are bent to form four side walls,
- the second part has a strip shape and covers at least one of a plurality of corners where two of the side walls are adjacent,
- the side walls are made of a continuous fiber reinforced resin that comprises fiber layers oriented in a predetermined direction,
- the fiber layers are oriented in a direction from one to the other of the adjacent side walls in the at least one of the corners, and
- no breakpoint exists in an area of the at least one of the corners, wherein the breakpoint is where the fiber layers are discontinuous over an entire thickness in a wall thickness direction.
