Abstract: A mobile X-ray apparatus that performs a stable operation even if a sudden voltage drop or momentary power interruption occurs during operation of a commercial AC power source. The mobile X-ray apparatus includes a plug for connection to a commercial AC power source, a battery charged from the commercial AC power source through the plug, a unit that operates by being supplied with electricity from the commercial AC power source connected through the plug, and a second circuit including a rectifier that supplies electricity to the unit from the battery if a voltage from the commercial AC power source falls to or below a regulated value while the unit is being operated by the electricity supply from the commercial AC power source.

Abstract: Provided is an X-ray device which can perform X-ray imaging without an object being subjected to ineffective exposure even when the X-ray imaging is interrupted by the occurrence of an error. The X-ray device is provided with an X-ray generator, an operation panel configured to set an imaging condition, an X-ray irradiation control unit configured to control X-ray irradiation in accordance with the imaging condition, an error detecting unit, configured to, during the X-ray irradiation, detect the occurrence of an error by which the X-ray irradiation should be interrupted, an irradiation interrupting unit configured to interrupt the X-ray irradiation when the occurrence of the error is detected, and a recovery unit configured to resume the X-ray irradiation for ensuring the X-ray amount defined by the imaging condition.

Abstract: A technique for aiding the determination of whether or not desired imaging can be performed by a mobile-type X-ray apparatus for X-ray imaging using a battery mounted therein as a drive source. From the imaging list showing scheduled imaging and pre-stored information about the power consumed when each region is imaged, a prediction of the consumption of the battery power of when all the imaging in the imaging list is performed is computed and presented together with the remaining battery power to the user. Various corrections can be applied to the computation. The difference between the remaining battery power and the predicted consumption of the battery power may be displayed.

Abstract: A mobile X-ray apparatus that performs a stable operation even if a sudden voltage drop or momentary power interruption occurs during operation of a commercial AC power source. The mobile X-ray apparatus includes a plug for connection to an external power source, a battery charged from the external power source through the plug, a unit that operates by being supplied with electricity from the commercial AC power source connected through the plug, and a second circuit including a rectifier that supplies electricity to the unit from the battery if a voltage from the commercial AC power source falls to or below a regulated value while the unit is being operated by the electricity supply from the commercial AC power source.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a mobile X-ray apparatus having a main unit, a moving carriage for installing the main unit, a column standing on the moving carriage, an X-ray generator supported by the column, and an image reader for reading X-ray image information from an imaging plate in which the X-ray image information is stored. The X-ray apparatus is provided with a brake for putting a brake on the moving carriage, a brake control means for applying the brake or releasing the brake, a read control means for prohibiting reading by the image reader, while the brake control means releases the brake, a cassette loading slot for inserting a cassette enclosing the imaging plate into the image reader, a blocking member for closing at least a part of the cassette loading slot to block the cassette to be inserted, and an open and close control means for closing the blocking member to prevent insertion of the cassette while the read control means prohibits reading.

Abstract: A mobile X-ray apparatus including a main body portion, a mobile dolly on which the main body portion is mounted, a support pole that is erectly provided on the mobile dolly, an X-ray generator supported on the support pole, and an image reading device for reading image information from an imaging plate in which X-ray image information is stored, and further including detecting means for detecting whether the mobile dolly is being moved, and reading control means for prohibiting reading of the image reading device when it is detected by the detecting means that the mobile dolly is being moved.
