  • Patent number: 11103202
    Abstract: There is disclosed a mobile radiographic imaging apparatus including a component operable to emit radiation for imaging a subject, an arm rotatably connected at a proximal end thereof to a body section of the apparatus, such that it is supported by the body section and can slew relative to the body section about an upright axis, and to a distal end of which said component is connected, and a generator assembly arranged in the body section and including a generator arranged in the casing and electrically connected to said component, the apparatus being configured such that the generator assembly rotates with the arm, about said axis, wherein the generator assembly has a centre of mass which is radially offset from said axis in a second direction that is substantially opposite to said first direction.

  • Patent number: 10918348
    Abstract: An articulated arm to suspend an X-ray head from a support section in a radiographic imaging apparatus comprising two pairs of linkages separated and joined to an intermediate linkage wherein the proximal end of the first pair of linkages is connected to the support section and the distal end of the second pair of linkages is connected to the X-ray head, and further wherein the linkages in the first pair of linkages are parallel and rotatable about the connection to the support section, the linkages in the second pair of linkages are parallel and rotatable about the intermediate linkage, and whereby a rotational orientation of a mounting for the X-ray head about an axis which is parallel to the axes about which the first pair of linkages are rotatable remains constant when the first pair of linkages is rotated relative to the support section and/or the second pair of linkages is rotated relative to the intermediate linkage.

  • Publication number: 20070294099
    Abstract: Software publishers generally want to produce on demand software CDs or DVDs as required for purchases to avoid maintenance of the stock of product. All of the CDs or DVD contents and graphics have to be uploaded and maintained. Physical on demand allows one to sell physical copies of software created to order. No extra inventory remains and there is no need to dispose of obsolete products. Furthermore, clients generally want to produce on demand software CDs as required for purchases and avoid maintenance of the stock of product. With physical on demand fulfillment process, there will be no concerns surrounding backorder or cancellation of orders.
