The invention is directed to a stand for an x-ray examination apparatus comprising a telescoping column that, for example, guides an x-radiator adjustably in the direction of its longitudinal axis and comprises at least three tubular telescope parts joined inside one another, whereby the telescope parts are coupled such to one another that, given adjustment of the x-radiator, the same relative displacement occurs between respectively two telescope parts adjacent to one another and whereby respective stops are provided between telescope parts adjacent to one another. Adjustment devices are thereby provided with which the position of the telescope parts is adjustable such relative to one another in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the telescoping column that all stops take effect essentially simultaneously and the adjustment devices are fashioned and arranged such that they are actuatable without dismantling the telescoping column.
A stand for an x-radiator, including a telescoping column that guides the x-radiator adjustable in the direction of the telescoping column of the longitudinal axisof the telescoping column, and which has at least three tubular telescope parts joined inside one another, whereof one is stationary relative to the others, one carries the x-radiator and one is connected to means for adjusting said x-radiator, the telescope parts being coupled to one another such that, when said x-radiator is adjusted, the same relative displacement occurs between each two telescope parts adjacent to one another, and respective stop means for limiting the relative displacement being provided between telescope parts adjacent to one another, comprising adjustment means for adjusting the positions of the telescope parts relative to one another when two or more stops means take effect at different times relative to each other, wherein the adjusting is in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the telescoping column such that all stop means essentially take effect simultaneously;
A stand for an x-radiator including a telescoping column that guides a part of the x-ray examination apparatus along a longitudinal axis, and which has at least three tubular telescope parts joined inside one another with respective stop means for limiting the relative displacement between telescope parts adjacent to one another, comprising:
