Radiographing apparatus
An X-ray imaging apparatus includes a sensor panel that converts incident radiation to an electric signal, a tabular metallic base plate including a front surface where the sensor panel is supported and a region where the tabular metallic base plate has a basic thickness, a circuit board disposed on a rear surface of the tabular metallic base plate, the rear surface being opposite to the front surface, wherein a thickness of the tabular metallic base plate in a region where the circuit board is disposed is larger than the basic thickness.
1. A radiographing apparatus, comprising:
a sensor panel configured to convert incident radiation to an electric signal; and
a tabular metallic base plate supporting the sensor panel, the tabular metallic base plate including a plurality of flat regions among which at least three flat regions are arranged in a predetermined direction, wherein the thickness of the plurality of flat regions decreases sequentially in the predetermined direction.
2. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the tabular metallic base plate is formed by die casting or thixomolding.
3. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a first flat region among the plurality of flat regions is a region where no circuit board is provided, a second flat region among the plurality of flat regions is a region where a circuit board is provided, and the second flat region is thicker than the first flat region.
4. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a second flat region among the plurality of flat regions is a region where a circuit board is provided, a third flat region among the plurality of flat regions is a region facing an IC chip configured to amplify the electric signal from the sensor panel, and the third flat region is thicker than the second flat region.
5. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a fourth flat region among the plurality of flat regions is a region with which a power supply member is in contact, a first flat region among the plurality of flat regions is a region in which the power supply member is not in contact, and the fourth flat region is thinner than the first flat region.
6. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising:
a housing configured to accommodate the sensor panel and the tabular metallic base plate, the housing including a holding portion for holding the power supply member,
wherein the power supply member and the holding portion are in contact with the fourth flat region.
7. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the thickness of the fourth flat region is less than 1.5 mm.
8. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the fourth flat region extends to at least one end of the tabular metallic base plate.
9. The radiographing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the power supply member is a battery.
