Device for reading in particular flexible imaging plates

摘要

The device has a reading device for reading out information that is stored on a storage foil in a reading direction (9). A transport device has a drive unit for transporting the foil relative to the reading device along a guide unit on a transport path, where shape of the path is adjusted to a shape of a readout area of the reading device. A cartridge shaped solid support (1) for the foil is provided, where shape and dimensions of the support are adjusted to the shape of the path. The foil is not in contact with the drive unit when the storage foil is transported together with the support. An independent claim is also included for a support for a flexible storage foil in connection with a readout device.
