Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A radiation imaging device according to one embodiment comprises a radiation detection panel, a base substrate having a support surface configured to support the radiation detection panel, and a housing, wherein: the housing has a top wall and a bottom wall, the base substrate has a protruding portion which protrudes further outward than the radiation detection panel when seen in a direction orthogonal to the support surface, a first extending portion is provided to the support surface of the protruding portion, a second extending portion is provided to a back surface of the protruding portion, the second extending portion being disposed at a position which it faces the first extending portion with the protruding portion interposed therebetween, and the base substrate is supported on the top wall via the first extending portion and is supported on the bottom wall via the second extending portion.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A radiation imaging device comprising: a radiation detection panel having a first surface on which a detection region for detecting radiation is formed and a second surface on a side opposite to the first surface; a base substrate having a support surface configured to face the second surface of the radiation detection panel and configured to support the radiation detection panel; and a housing configured to accommodate the radiation detection panel and the base substrate, wherein the housing has a first wall portion which faces the first surface and a second wall portion which faces the second surface, the base substrate has a protruding portion which protrudes further outward in a second direction parallel to the support surface than the radiation detection panel when seen in a first direction orthogonal to the support surface, a first extending portion configured to extend in the first direction is provided on the support surface of the protruding portion, a second extending portion disposed at a position at which the second extending portion faces the first extending portion with the protruding portion interposed therebetween and configured to extend in the first direction is provided on a surface of the protruding portion on a side opposite to the support surface, and the base substrate is supported on the first wall portion via the first extending portion and is supported on the second wall portion via the second extending portion. 2. The radiation imaging device according to claim 1 , wherein the first extending portion is a positioning member which positions the radiation detection panel. 3. The radiation imaging device according to claim 1 , wherein the first extending portion and the second extending portion are formed separately from the base substrate. 4. The radiation imaging device according to claim 1 , wherein the first extending portion and the second extending portion are mounted on the protruding portion by a common mounting member. 5. The radiation imaging device according to claim 1 , wherein: the second extending portion is larger than the first extending portion when seen in the first direction, and the second extending portion has a portion which does not overlap the first extending portion when seen in the first direction. 6. The radiation imaging device according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of first extending portions disposed apart from each other are provided, and a plurality of second extending portions disposed apart from each other to correspond to the plurality of first extending portions are provided on the support surface of the protruding portion. 7. The radiation imaging device according to claim 6 , wherein: the base substrate has a plurality of protruding portions disposed apart from each other, and the first extending portion and the second extending portion are provided on each of the plurality of protruding portions. 8. The radiation imaging device according to claim 7 , wherein: the radiation detection panel is formed in a rectangular shape when seen in the first direction, and the plurality of protruding portions are provided at positions corresponding to four corners of the radiation detection panel. 9. The radiation imaging device according to claim 8 , wherein: the housing has a third wall portion which extends in the first direction and connects the first wall portion to the second wall portion, the third wall portion is formed in a rectangular ring shape when seen in the first direction, a recess which avoids interference with the protruding portion, the first extending portion, and the second extending portion is formed in each corner portion of the third wall portion, and a thickness of the third wall portion in the recess is smaller than a thickness of the third wall portion on a side portion of the third wall portion which connects the adjacent corner portions of the third wall portion. 10. The radiation imaging device according to claim 9 , wherein: the first wall portion has a shield member which is disposed to be in surface contact with the third wall portion and shields electromagnetic waves, and the first wall portion is screwed to the side portion of the third wall portion and the first extending portion.
