Patient positioning table

A patient positioning table, comprising:

• two scissor frames, each of the two scissor frames having a first scissor arm and a second scissor arm,
• wherein the first scissor arm and the second scissor arm are connected to each other in an X-shaped arrangement so as to be configured to
• pivot about a common pivot axis, and
• pivot relative to each other through a lifting facility for vertically moving the patient positioning table,
• wherein the lifting facility includes a roller arrangement coupled to, and configured to move via, at least one traction device,
• wherein said roller arrangement is arranged between, and configured to guide, the two scissor frames,
• wherein at least a first end of the at least one traction device is fixed in position,
• wherein the at least one traction device is arranged around at least one roller unit,
• wherein the at least one roller unit includes deflecting rollers,
• wherein a first of the deflecting rollers and a second of the deflecting rollers are arranged on the first scissor arm intermediate the common pivot axis and an end of the first scissor arm, and configured, with the roller arrangement, such that the at least one traction device is arranged in an omega shape,
• wherein the position of the roller arrangement between the two scissor frames is variable by a drive facility that is configured to interact with the at least one traction device, and
• wherein each of the at least one roller unit has a support arranged in a positionally fixed or movable manner on the first scissor arm or the second scissor arm, wherein the deflecting rollers are arranged on the support.
