- An object ofthe present invention is toimprove existing devices of the described nature by simplifying the setting of the initial position (zero position).
- This arrangement of the present invention greatly simplifies the setting of the zero position.
- the light sight at the X-ray tube and in the point of rotation of the swingingarm is used to cover three reference surfaces of the head extending perpendicularly to each other and passing through the center of the imaginary spheres, which are anatomically easily recognized and defined, such as, for example, the infraorbital, auricular and medialsagittal surfaces, these surfaces being covered by corresponding markings of the light sight.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a device constructed in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a block circuit showing the automative actuation of the movements of the device.
- FIG. 1 shows an X-ray device having an X-ray tube 1 with a diaphragm 2 adjustablyconnected thereto.
- the tube 1 is connected to an arm portion 3 of a U- shaped swingable arm 4.
- the arm portion 5 of the arm 4 carries a holder 6 for cassettes.
- An X-ray film cassette 7 can he slid into the holder 6'.
- the X-ray tube and the holder are so arranged that the central ray of the X-ray tube coincides with the central vertical line of the eassette.
- the arm portion 5 is adjustable in the direction of the central ray by a device 8 in order to change the focus-image layer distance.
- the swingable am 4 is mounted in its middle section between the *X-ray tube and the cassette carrier located in its maximum focusimage layer distance upon an arm 9 shaped as a horizontal bearing and forming a part of a U-shaped stand having a vertical column 10 and a horizontal arm 11.
- the arm 4 is rotatable about the horizontal bearing axis "9' in such manner that the focus of the X-ray tube :1
- the support for the patient consists of a table plate 13 mounted upon a column 14 which can be adjusted in height by a hydraulic raising device located in a casing 15 and operated by a pedal 16.
- the column 15 is mounted upon a base 17 having rollers (not shown) two of which are guided in a rail 18, so that the table can be moved relatively to the device in the same direction set by the rail 18.
- a lever 19 is used to stop the movement of the support in the direction of the rail.
- the table plate 13 is adjustable in the longitudinal and transverse directions relatively to the column 14. The longitudinal shifting takes place by the hand wheel 20 while the transverse movement is carried out by the hand wheel 21.
- a lever 22 is used to stop the table in its longitudinal direction while the lever 23 stops the transverse movement of the table.
- the table has. supporting means at its head end for introducing a head support 24 made of transparent material. The two carrying arms 25 of this head support are curved so that by placing the head support into the one or the other position the head of the patient can be supported in two different positions.
- the device is placed in the following manner into its initial position (zero position) relatively to the object being examined (the skull):
- the table is moved to such a position relatively to the X-ray tube image layer unit, that the skull of the patient lies approximately in the direction of the rays.
- the light sight 26 is located in the point of rotation of the arm 4 for the precise setting of the object being examined.
- the light sight has a vertical slit 27 and a horizontal slit 28. Two light markings can be projected upon the object being examined through these two slits, which represent a vertical and a horizontal sectional surface passing through the center of the'imaginary concentric spheres.
- the object being examined can be brought into a position wherein the vertical sectional surface will characterize a predetermined anatomically easily fixable position, for example, the so-called infraorbital plane.
- the light marking 28 can be moved to cover the so-called infraorbital plane by varying the vertical location of the object being examined to the device, with the help of the pedal 16 for the height moving of the table or with the help of the setting member 29 for shifting the telescopically movable supporting column ,10.
- the column is swung about the axis 12' of the bearing 12 to the extent of 90 degrees and the light marking 26 is brought to cover the socalled medial sagittal plane.
- the light marking provided in the diaphragm 2 of the X-ray tube is used as a graticule extending in the longitudinal direction of the table and transversely thereto.
- the central ray of the X-ray tube is placed vertically and then the marking of the light sight extending in the longitudinal direction of the table is brought to cover the medialsagittal plane of the object being examined by the use of the setting means 21 of the table.
- all the desired exposure positions can be set, for example, by means of a chart which prescribes the quantative deviations of individual positions from the zero position.
- indicating means are provided for the individual setting members determining the relative positions of the object being examined and the X-ray tube image layer unit.
- the rotary bearing 12 is provided with the scale 30, the horizontal rotary axle for the swinging movement of the arm 4 with the scale 31, the telescopic guide of the column 18 with the scale 32, the setting means 20 for the longitudinal movement of the table with the scale 33 and, finally, the setting I means 21 for the transverse movement of the table with the scale 34.
- FIG. 2 illustrates diagrammatically the possibility of changing from a manual setting to a setting by means of servo-motors, the individual exposure positions being automatically fixed by a unit operated by a perforated card.
- the block circuit diagram of FIG. 2 shows five such servo-motors, namely, the motor 35 for the vertical movement of the column, the motor 36 for the angular adjustment of the swinging arm at the bearing 9, the motor 37 for the angular adjustment of the column at the bearing 12, the motor 38 for moving the table in the transverse direction of the table plate and finally the motor 39 for shifting the table plate in the longitudinal direction of the table. All these motors are operated by an operating unit 40 on the basis of information introduced into a data transmitting device 41, for example, by means of a perforated card 42.
- This actuation by means of a perforated card need not be limited to the mechanical setting movements of the device, but can be also used to carry out corresponding electrical settings of the X-ray tube voltage, X-ray tube current and the exposure duration at the X-ray apparatus 43, so as to provide the correct condition for each exposure.
- the termination of the exposure can be also carried out automatically in the described manner, so that the entire exposure program can be developed automatically and the service of the operator will be limited only to the settingof the zero position.
