ABSTRACT:
A mobile medical X-ray apparatus has the entire weight of its X-ray source and X-ray detector as well as their supporting arm supported by a vertically movable support column on a mobile table. A lever and a member for supporting a normally compressed spring are attached to the table rotatably, and they are also connected to each other rotatably with respect to each other around a connector shaft such that the force of the spring tends to rotate the lever in the direction of causing the support column to move upward. The spring constant of the spring and the relative positions of the lever and the spring-supporting member are determined such that the support column can be moved manually upward or downward.
