Abstract
A light distributor for an x-ray diagnostics installation has mirror-symmetrically disposed sets of light exit ports at a housing, which are adapted for connection to various different image recording components. Inside the housing, a mirror system is provided which can be arranged in a first position or a second position. When the system is arranged in the first position, light is directed from an input port of the light distributor to a first of the sets of light exit ports in the housing. When the mirror system is arranged in the second position, light from the input port is directed to a second of the sets of light exit ports. The mirror system can be changed between the first and second positions by a simple manual operation, using the same mirrors and the same mirror mounts, which are interchangeably accepted in a single set of mounting locations in the housing.
