X-ray device having a column and having a cantilever arm displaceable on the column
The invention relates to an X-ray device ( 1 ) provided with a column ( 2 ) and an arm which is upwardly ( 3 ) displaceable therealong and on which at least one X-ray picture detector ( 4 ) and/or an X-ray transmitter ( 5 ) are mounted. A receiving means ( 6 ) arranged on the column is used for receiving a picture carrier ( 7 ) on the plane part ( 8 ). Preferably, said receiving means is embodied in the form of a support for interchangeably receiving the picture carrier in such a way that large-surface images are placeable on the column without affecting the arm operation.
1. An X-ray device comprising a column and a cantilever arm whose height is displaceable on the column, at least one X-ray image detector and/or at least one X-ray transmitter being arranged on the cantilever arm, wherein the device further comprises mounting means on the column for mounting an image carrier on a surface section of the column,
wherein the mounting means is a holder, which is fixable on the column, for the mounting of the image carrier,
wherein the cantilever arm includes a guide carriage that overlaps the surface section of the column and is guided on the column behind the mounting means on a side averted from the image carrier,
wherein the cantilever arm is fastened on the carriage in a way being pivotable away laterally from an operating position into a dismounting position, in the dismounting position the holder being dismountable approximately at right angles to the movement plane of the carriage.
2. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the holder includes a cover made from transparent material for protecting the image carrier.
3. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the holder includes a light for illuminating the image carrier.
4. The X-ray device according to claim 3 , characterized in that the light comprises a plurality of light-emitting diodes that extend over at least an edge region of the holder and light emission from the plurality of light-emitting diodes is fed laterally into a diffuser plate arranged downstream of the image carrier.
5. The X-ray device according to claim 4 , characterized in that a reflector plate is arranged on a side of the diffuser plate averted from the image carrier.
6. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the holder includes an image screen or a display for alternating display of images or characters.
7. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the holder essentially extends over the entire width and height of the column.
8. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the guide carriage is guided on two parallel guide rails.
9. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that arranged on the guide carriage is a rack that, for displacing the guide carriage, meshes with a pinion which is supported on the column and is driven by a drive motor.
10. The X-ray device according to claim 9 , characterized in that a rack/pinion gear is arranged between the two guide rails.
11. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the guide carriage includes lateral guide cheeks that are connected to a guide plate that is displaceable behind the image carrier.
12. The X-ray device according to claim 11 , characterized in that the guide plate includes skids that are guided on the two parallel guide rails.
13. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the cantilever arm is fastened on a hinged plate that, as a component of the guide carriage is displaceable at a distance from the image carrier and parallel thereto, and that is provided on one side with hinges for the pivoting movement.
14. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the column includes an approximately cuboidal housing, and that the image carrier or the holder is designed as a housing cover.
15. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the image carrier is a transparent plate made from acrylglass, and the image is bonded as a film onto the plate.
16. The X-ray device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the image carrier is an advertising medium.
