Radiographic image capturing apparatus, radiographic image capturing system, and method of supplying electric power to radiographic image capturing apparatus
First Claim
1. A portable radiographic image capturing apparatus comprising:
- a radiation source device including an electric power storage unit and a radiation source for outputting radiation; and
a detector device including an electric power storage unit and a radiation detector for detecting radiation that is transmitted through a subject when the subject is irradiated with radiation by the radiation source, and converting the detected radiation into a radiographic image,at least one of the radiation source device and the detector device having an electric power supply limiting unit for limiting supply of electric power,the electric power supply limiting unit including;
an electric power controller that controls supply of electric power between the electric power storage unit of the radiation source device and the electric power storage unit of the detector device; and
an electric power supply limiter that limits supply of electric power between the electric power storage unit of the radiation source device and the electric power storage unit of the detector device, depending on timing of an image capturing process,wherein the electric power controller supplies electric power only along a route from the electric power storage unit of the detector device to the electric power storage unit of the radiation source device, based on the electric power supply request made before the image capturing process.
