ABSTRACT:
An axial tomographic scanner having means for supporting a plurality of cables leading to the X-ray source including a yoke upon which the X-ray source is mounted, first bracket means mounted on the yoke adjacent the X-ray source for restraining cable movement, second bracket means mounted on the yoke remote from the X-ray source for restraining cable movement, and means disposed between the first and second bracket means for maintaining the cables passing therethrough in a gradual arc while preventing undue flexing of the cables and undesirable movement of the cables into interfering position with other components of the axial tomographic scanner. The cable maintaining means disposed between the first and second bracket means comprises a pair of flexible elongated bands extending on opposite sides of the cables from the first bracket means to the second bracket means and a cable guide, one end of which securely engages one of the bands while the other end surrounds a portion of the other band and restrains lateral movement thereof, the side portions of the cable guide serving to prevent transverse movement of the cables passing therethrough so as to maintain the pair of bands and those portions of the cables between the first and second bracket means in a generally planar, arcuate configuration during all rotational movements of the yoke and translational movements, if any, of the X-ray source.
