Abstract
A cassette tray includes a front clamp, a rear clamp, and opposing side clamps. A front clamp supporting unit supports the front clamp such that the front clamp may be moved in a direction vertical to a surface of the X-ray film cassette. A rear clamp supporting unit supports the rear clamp such that the rear clamp may be moved in a direction parallel to the surface of the X-ray film cassette. A side clamp supporting unit supports the side clamps such that the side clamps may be moved in a direction in which the side clamps are apart from each other and in a direction in which the side clamps are close to each other, wherein the side clamps are driven by a driving unit according to the advance and retreat of the rear clamp.
