: “ TABLE CONTROL METHOD, PATIENT SUPPORTING DEVICE AND X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS”

Application 1933/DEL/2004 published 2006-07-28, filed 2004-10-06
To provide a table control method wherein a tabletop (102) can be easily moved by hand regardless of its deflection, deflection of the tip of the tabletop (102) due to load W is compensated. This deflection compensation is carried out by tilting the tabletop (102) to lift its tip. The amount T of lift of the tip is determined based on the amount D of driving of the tabletop (102), the load W on dthe tabletop (102), and the user’s allowable effort E. The amount of lift of the tip is obtained by the following expression: T=2.38-0.00247D-1.16E + 0.000022W2 + 0.000003D2-0.0135E2+ 0.000028WD -0.000157DE + 0.00301EW E is obtained by the following expression: E=1.72 + 0.00354D
