PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an X-ray detector which allows both mechanical and manual operations to regulate the angle of an X-ray incidence surface inside a detector housing, and an X-ray camera having the X-ray detector.SOLUTION: The X-ray detector comprises: support systems (442, 432), a drive system (540), a switch system (700), brake systems (580, 590), and brake operation means (448), wherein the support systems support a detector housing (440) so as to rotate at a horizontal axis parallel to an X-ray incidence surface the drive system has a shaft (510) and a drive end, the shaft having one end connected to the detector housing and another end which moves linearly to rotate the detector housing, and the drive end connecting directly or indirectly to the another end of the shaft, so that the drive system may drive the another end of the shaft to move linearly, with the another end of the shaft being connected with the drive end the switch system switches on and off the connection between the another end of the shaft and the drive end the brake systems stop the rotation of the detector housing and the brake operation means switches on and off the brake systems.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】ディテクタハウジングのX線入射面の向きの調節が動力と手動のどちらでも可能なX線検出装置、および、そのようなX線検出装置を有するX線撮影装置を実現する。【解決手段】X線検出装置は、X線入射面に平行な水平軸を中心として回動可能なようにディテクタハウジング(440)を支持する支持機構(442,432)と、一端がディテクタハウジングに接続されたシャフトであって、他端の直線運動によりディテクタハウジングを回動させるシャフト(510)と、シャフトの他端と直接的または間接的に接続する駆動端を有し、駆動端とシャフトの他端とが接続した状態で、シャフトの他端の直線運動を駆動する駆動機構(540)と、シャフトの他端と駆動端との接続と非接続を切り替える切替機構(700)と、ディテクタハウジングの回動を阻止するブレーキ機構(580,590)と、ブレーキ機構の作動と非作動を切り替えるブレーキ操作手段(448)を具備する。【選択図】図3
