ABSTRACT:
For the purpose of providing a parallel-link table that is moved up/down without moving the position of a subject in the longitudinal direction, an upper structure is placed over a base plate connected with a platform via parallel links, and a first bracket on the upper structure and a middle point of one parallel link are connected by a first position correcting link of a length half that of the parallel link using pivotal joint portions; and therefore, when the base plate is moved up/down with respect to the platform, the upper structure moves only in the vertical direction without moving in the horizontal direction, and the top plate over the upper structure, hence, the subject placed on the top plate can be moved up/down in the vertical direction without moving in the longitudinal direction.
