Abstract
An arm moving mechanismincludes a first rotatable membermounted on baseso as to be rotatable about a first rotation axisperpendicular to the base, a second rotatable membermounted on the first rotatable memberso as to be rotatable about a second rotation axisperpendicular to the base, a C-shaped arm support framemounted on the second rotatable memberso as to be rotatable about a third rotation axisperpendicular to the base, motors for rotating them, and a controller for controlling the motors. When the first rotatable member, the second rotatable member, and the C-shaped arm support frameare moved, the radiation irradiation unitand the radiation detection unitare moved linearly between the imaging position for performing radiographic imaging and the retreat position retreated from the imaging position.
