Abstract

A patient supporting table having a support plate that comprises a seating surface for a patient, and having a base member that carries the support plate, whereby the support plate is adjustable relative to the base member at least in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the patient supporting table. The underside of the support plate that faces away from the seating surface includes a surface of action that presses against a correspondingly shaped surface of action of the base member. The surfaces of action of the support plate and of the base member slide on one another when the support plate is adjusted relative to the base member.
