摘要:
According to one embodiment, a cot (10) comprises a support frame (12) for supporting a patient above a loading surface (500) of an emergency vehicle, the support frame comprising a front end (17), and a back end (19); a pair of front legs (20), wherein each front leg comprises at least one front wheel (26); a pair of back legs (40), wherein each back leg comprises at least one back wheel (46); a cot actuation system comprising a front actuator (16) that moves the front legs and a back actuator (18) that moves the back legs, wherein the front actuator and the back actuator raise or lower the support frame together; the front actuator is configured to raise or lower the front end of the support frame separately from the back actuator; and the back actuator is configured to raise or lower the back end of the support frame separately from the front actuator. The roll-in cot further comprises a control box (50) configured to receive a signal from one or more sensors which detect the location of the roll-in cot relative to the loading surface; and the operation of the back actuator is dependent upon the location of the cot relative to the loading surface based on a signal from the sensor.

According to one embodiment, a cot (10) comprises a support frame (12) comprising a front end (17), and a back end (19); a pair of front legs (20) pivotally coupled to the support frame (12), wherein each front leg (20) comprises at least one front wheel (26); a pair of back legs (40) pivotally coupled to the support frame (12), wherein each back leg (40) comprises at least one back wheel (46); a cot actuation system comprising a front actuator (16) that moves the front legs (20) and a back actuator (18) that moves the back legs (40), wherein the support frame (12) comprises a pair of parallel lateral side members (15) extending between the front end (17) and the back end (19); the pair of parallel lateral side members (15) comprise tracks; each front leg (20) comprising a front carriage member (28) slidingly engaged with the tracks, and each back leg (40) comprising a back carriage member (48) slidingly engaged with the tracks; the front actuator (16) and the back actuator (18) raise or lower the support frame (12) together; the front actuator (16) being configured to raise or lower the front end (17) of the support frame (12) separately from the back actuator (18); and the back actuator (18) being configured to raise or lower the back end (19) of the support frame (12) separately from the front actuator (16).
摘要:
A powered ambulance cot and methods of raising and lowering the cot as well as loading and unloading the cot are disclosed. The cot includes a support frame and legs, each leg having a wheel. An actuator of an actuation system interconnects the frame and legs, and is configured to effect changes in elevation of the frame relative to the wheel of each of the legs. A control system controls activation of the actuation system, and detects both the actuator at a first location relative to the frame, where the first location is remote from a second location and which situates an end of the actuator that is remote from each wheel closer to the frame, and a presence of a signal requesting a change in elevation of said support frame to thereby cause the legs to move relative to the support frame.

摘要:
Cot fastening systems (2) which fix and hold an emergency cot (14) to a crash stable cot fastener track (12) provided within an emergency vehicle (8). The track (12) has a longitudinal length with front (85) and back ends (80), open side rails (28, 30) longitudinally extending between the ends, and a channel (86, 88) centrally located between the rails. The side rails (28, 30) align, accommodate and guide a forward fixture (4) of the cot towards the front end (85) as the cot (14) is rolled within the vehicle to retain the forward fixture (4) adjacent the front end (85) at least vertically and laterally. The channel (86, 88) accommodates and retains a rearward fixture (6) adjacent the back end (80) at least vertically and laterally. A securing mechanism (70,102) releasably prevents removal of the forward fixture (4) from the open side rails and removal of the rearward fixture (6) from the channel (86, 88).
