摘要:
An apparatus (10) for reading out, in a time-saving and reliable way, X-ray information stored in storage phosphor plates with an input unit (12) in which a plurality of cassettes (14) in which a storage phosphor plate to be read out is respectively located, can be input. A read-out unit (22) is located beneath the input unit (12) and in which storage phosphor plates can be read out, it being possible to remove a storage phosphor plate from a cassette (14) located within the input unit (12) and to convey it to the read-out unit (22) located beneath the input unit (12) in order to read out the storage phosphor plate, and to convey it back into the cassette located within the input unit (12) after having read out the storage phosphor plate, an output unit (16) which is adjacent to the input unit (12) and in which cassettes (18) can be output, and a moving device for moving the cassette (14) located within the input unit (12) the storage phosphor plate of which has been read out in the read-out unit (22) located beneath the input unit (12) along a substantially horizontal path of movement to the output unit adjacent to the input unit (12).
摘要:
An apparatus (10) for reading out X-ray information stored in storage phosphor plates with an input unit, (12) for inputting a plurality of cassettes (14, 28, 32) which can be stacked one behind the other in a direction of stacking (S) within the input unit (12), has an oblong accommodation well (30) for accommodating one of the cassettes (32), the accommodation well (30) being adjacent to the input unit (12), a moving device (50) for horizontally moving the cassette (32) accommodated by the accommodation well (30) along a path of movement, and a deflection element (64, 66) for deflecting a next cassette located within the input unit (12) which is adjacent to the cassette (32) accommodated by the accommodation well (30) and projects at least partially into the path of movement, the deflection element (64, 66) being positioned and designed such that with horizontal movement of the cassette (32) located within the accommodation well (30), due to contact between the cassette (32) located within the accommodation well (30) and the next cassette (28) located within the input unit (12) a force is exerted upon the latter in the direction of stacking (S) and thus moves out of the path of movement.
摘要:
Apparatus and method for conveying objects generally transversely to a direction of initial delivery. The apparatus uses two conveying arrangements which can move independently of one another. Each of the two conveying arrangements have a transport region and a return region. A dividing gap is arranged between the two conveying arrangements. A sliding mechanism can be positioned to at least one of adjust a length of the transport regions and adjust a length of the return regions. An equalizing mechanism can be positioned to at least one of compensate for the change in the return regions and compensate for the change in the transport regions. The sliding mechanism and the equalizing mechanism are separate mechanisms. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
