Abstract
An x-ray support device, including a radiation source and a radiation receiver, which are both movably supported on the ceiling either via a common support or each via separate supports, in which a support has a first boom rotatable about an essentially vertical pivot axis and extending essentially horizontally, and a second boom disposed rotatably about a vertical axis and extending essentially horizontally, on which the radiation source and/or the radiation receiver are supported directly or indirectly.
Claims23
An x ray support device comprising a radiation source and a radiation receiver which are both supported movably on the ceiling by either one of:
- a common support or separate supports, characterized in that at least one support has a first boom, rotatable about an essentially vertical pivot axis and extending essentially horizontally, and a second boom connected with the first boom,
- the second boom disposed rotatably about a vertical axis and extending essentially horizontally and supported longitudinally displaceably on the first boom,
- at least one of the radiation source, the radiation receiver and both the radiation source and receiver are supported on the second boom and rotatable about a vertical pivot axis relative to the second boom.
An x ray support device comprising:
- a radiation source and a radiation receiver which are both supported movably on the ceiling by separate supports, characterized in that each of the separate supports has a first boom, rotatable about an essentially vertical pivot axis and extending essentially horizontally, and a second boom connected with the first boom, the second boom disposed rotatably about a vertical axis and extending essentially horizontally;
- the second boom disposed rotatably about a vertical axis and extending essentially horizontally;
- at least one of the radiation source, the radiation receiver and both the radiation source and receiver are supported on the second boom and rotatable about a vertical pivot axis relative to the second boom;
- and
- wherein the radiation source and the radiation receiver are each disposed on separate supports and are each disposed rotatably on the respective second boom via a respective vertical support.
