Abstract

A radiation detector stand has a first support having a plurality of first trenches to which a plurality of radiation detectors for detecting a radiation are inserted, and a second support arranged in parallel to the first support. The first trenches are arranged at a predetermined interval corresponding to an interval of arranging the radiation detectors. The second support has a plurality of second trenches to which the radiation detectors are inserted, and the second trenches are arranged at the predetermined interval.

Claims (24)

1. A radiation detector stand comprising:

a first support having a plurality of first trenches to which a plurality of radiation detectors for detecting a radiation are inserted, the first trenches being arranged at a predetermined interval corresponding to an interval of arranging the radiation detectors;

a second support arranged in parallel to the first support, the second support having a plurality of second trenches to which the radiation detectors are inserted, the second trenches being arranged at the predetermined interval; and

a substantially flat plate on which the first and second supports are arranged.

2. The radiation detector stand according to claim 1 , further comprising:

elastic members placed between each of the first trenches and each of the radiation detectors and between each of the second trenches and each of the radiation detectors,

wherein the elastic members presses each of the radiation detectors to the first support and the second support.

3. The radiation detector stand according to claim 2 , wherein the first trenches and the second trenches are formed respectively between a plurality of wall portions, each of the wall portions contains a flat side and a locking depression formed on a surface opposed to the flat side, each of the elastic members is formed with a shape corresponding to the locking depression, and each of the elastic members can press the radiation detector to the flat side.

4. The radiation detector stand according to claim 3 , wherein the first support and the second support are respectively formed from a metal material.

5. The radiation detector stand according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a support plate mounting the first support and the second support, and

a plurality of connection members connected to the radiation detectors respectively and provided between the first support and the second support, the connection members connecting an exterior electric circuit with the radiation detectors.

6. A radiation detector stand comprising:

a first support having a plurality of first trenches to which a plurality of radiation detectors for detecting a radiation are inserted, the first trenches being arranged at a predetermined interval corresponding to an interval of arranging the radiation detectors;

a second support arranged in parallel to the first support, the second support having a plurality of second trenches to which the radiation detectors are inserted, the second trenches being arranged at the predetermined interval; and

elastic members placed between each of the first trenches and each of the radiation detectors and between each of the second trenches and each of the radiation detectors,

wherein the elastic members presses each of the radiation detectors to the first support and the second support.

7. The radiation detector stand according to claim 6 , wherein the first trenches and the second trenches are formed respectively between a plurality of wall portions, each of the wall portions contains a flat side and a locking depression formed on a surface opposed to the flat side, each of the elastic members is formed with a shape corresponding to the locking depression, and each of the elastic members can press the radiation detector to the flat side.

8. The radiation detector stand according to claim 7 , wherein the first support and the second support are respectively formed from a metal material.

9. The radiation detector stand according to claim 8 , further comprising:

a support plate mounting the first support and the second support, and

a plurality of connection members connected to the radiation detectors respectively and provided between the first support and the second support, the connection members connecting an exterior electric circuit with the radiation detectors.

10. The radiation detector stand according to claim 7 , wherein the locking depression has a first slope and a second slope with an inclination sharper than that of the first slope.

11. The radiation detector stand according to claim 8 , wherein the locking depression has a first slope and a second slope with an inclination sharper than that of the first slope.
