Radiographic apparatus

A radiographic apparatus comprising a top plate movable in the horizontal direction, for supporting a subject;

• an image receiver for receiving a radiographic image of said subject;
• a moving mechanism for varying the position of said image receiver in the horizontal direction relative to said top plate and the posture of said image receiver;
• and limiting means for limiting the movement of said top plate in a predetermined direction in case the posture of said image receiver is not horizontal.

A radiographic apparatus comprising a top plate movable in the horizontal direction, for supporting a subject;

• an image receiver for receiving a radiographic image of said subject;
• a moving mechanism for varying the position of said image receiver in the horizontal direction relative to said top plate and the posture of said image receiver;
• and a shock absorbing member positioned between said top plate and said image receiver for avoiding direct collision therebetween, in case said top plate is moved in a direction where said image receiver is present while the posture of said image receiver is not horizontal or in case the posture of said image receiver is changed from a horizontal while said top plate is positioned within a predetermined range.

A radiographic apparatus comprising a top plate movable in the horizontal direction, for supporting a subject;

• an image receiver for receiving a radiographic image of said subject;
• and a moving mechanism for varying the position of said image receiver in the horizontal direction relative to said top plate and the posture of said image receiver;
• wherein said moving mechanism comprises a locking mechanism for preventing said image receiver from moving in the horizontal direction in case the posture of said image receiver is not horizontal.
