Abstract

A portable radiographic image capturing apparatus includes a radiation conversion panel configured to output image information on the basis of applied radiation, a casing housing the radiation conversion panel therein, and a plurality of support members on which the radiation conversion panel is supported in the casing. The support members have slot structures housing wires therein.

Claims (34)

1. A portable radiographic image capturing apparatus, comprising:

a radiation conversion panel configured to output image information based on applied radiation;

a casing housing the radiation conversion panel therein; and

a plurality of support members on which the radiation conversion panel is supported in the casing,

wherein

the casing includes a front face that is irradiated with radiation, and a rear face that is held in fitted engagement with the front face,

the support members are erected from the rear face, support the radiation conversion panel provided at the front face's side, and have slot structures housing wires therein,

further comprising:

a plurality of teeth disposed in the support members and holding the wires within the slot structures.

2. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a plurality of boards housed in the casing,

wherein the wires are connected to regions of the boards, and the wires are connected through the slot structures to other regions of the boards or to the radiation conversion panel.

3. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the teeth have respective surfaces made of an elastic material.

4. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the teeth include at least corners, which are positioned near the wires, and are rounded as viewed in cross section along a plane normal to longitudinal directions of the support members.

5. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the slot structures extend along the longitudinal directions of the support members; and

the teeth are disposed in a staggered layout along the longitudinal directions of the support members.

6. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the support members are made of or contain an electrically conductive material.

7. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the slot structures include crossing regions where other wires extend across the wires; and

the crossing regions are provided by partially removing side walls of the support members that define the slot structures.

8. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein:

the other wires extend across both the slot structures and the wires that are housed in the slot structures in the crossing regions; and

the other wires are held between the wires, which are housed in the slot structures, and the casing or a base plate that is disposed in the casing.

9. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the radiation conversion panel is fixed to the front face;

the casing houses boards and a base plate therein;

the radiation conversion panel and the base plate are supported in the casing by the support members; and

the boards and the support members are fixed to the front face by the base plate.

10. The portable radiographic image capturing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the radiation conversion panel is fixed to the front face;

the casing houses boards and a base plate therein;

the radiation conversion panel and the base plate are supported in the casing by the support members; and

the boards and the support members are fixed to the rear face.
