Abstract
A protection cover includes a pressure responsive means mounted within the cover along its inner wall surface and which operates responsive to external forces to be exerted upon contact with a neighboring object. The protection cover is provided at a portion where physical contact may occur between any of movable or rotating component devices of an X-ray diagnostic apparatus, such as, an X-ray exposure unit or an image intensifier, and a neighboring object which is in the path of the component devices, such as, a subject or a catheter table. The protection cover may, for example, be provided at a moving end of a component X-ray diagnostic apparatus, such as, the forward end of the image intensifier, or may be mounted, instead of being mounted on a movable component device, on a neighboring object at its side facing to the movable part of the component devices, such as, a stand section of the catheter table, which lies in the path of a moving part of the X-ray radiographing component devices.
