005619000 | Lower body supporting section segmented longitudinally | 8 |
20090113633 | BED ASSEMBLY - A bed assembly ( | 05-07-2009 |
20090126116 | Surgery table apparatus - A surgery table utilizing first and second sections which are hingedly attached to one another. First and second sections are also connected to supports apart from the hinged portion. An elevator moves one of the sections upwardly and downwardly at the support. The resultant position of the frame formed by the first and second sections may take the configuration of a flat surface or an upwardly or downwardly oriented “vee”. | 05-21-2009 |
20090139030 | PATIENT ALIGNMENT DEVICE - A patient alignment device includes a table and a rotatable member positioned to rotate relative to the table. The rotatable member may be a head-support plate or a board which supports substantially all of a patient's body. A motor moves the board or plate so as to align the patient's body, or a part of the body, in a desired direction. The board may be formed in two segments, the segments being selectively connectable to each other, the segments also being selectively connectable to the table by pins, at various possible pivot points. Positioning of the pins determines the mode of rotation of the board. The invention allows an operator to align the patient's body with precision, by remote control, and without interrupting the medical procedure. | 06-04-2009 |
20110209286 | LEG SUPPORT FOR ROTATING SLEEP SURFACE TRANSFER SYSTEM - An occupant transfer system comprising a bed including a mattress or other sleep support structure mounted on an endless loop of flexible material, the loop extending over a plurality of rollers or guide members extending longitudinally of the bed; drive means adapted to cause rotation of the endless loop so that the sleep support structure moves laterally across the bed so that an occupant located on the sleep support structure is moved laterally across the bed in use. | 09-01-2011 |
20120246830 | FOOTBOARD EGRESS DESIGN - A person-support apparatus comprises a frame, a longitudinally extending member, and an endboard. The frame is configured to support a person thereon. The longitudinally extending member has a first end rotatably coupled to the frame at a first joint. The longitudinally extending member is configured to rotate between a first rotational orientation and a second rotational orientation with respect to the frame. The endboard is coupled to a second end of the longitudinally extending member and rotates with the longitudinally extending member between a first position and a second position. The endboard locates a first side of the frame in the first position and a second side of the frame in the second position. | 10-04-2012 |
20130111669 | AUTOMATED MULTI-FUNCTIONAL SUPPORT APPARATUS - A support apparatus ( | 05-09-2013 |
20130283531 | DECK-ON-DECK ADJUSTABLE BED FRAME - This disclosure concerns an adjustable bed with a deck-on-deck appearance. A concealing assembly is attached to the center frame of an articulating bed, wherein the concealing assembly is situated below the mattress platform and conceals the base frame as the center frame moves along the base frame when the bed articulates. In other embodiments, such as for non-wall hugger beds where the center frame is stationary, a concealing assembly may still be used but will also be stationary. | 10-31-2013 |
20160000624 | APPARATUS FOR PREVENTING BEDSORES - An apparatus for preventing bedsores is disclosed. The apparatus includes a sub-frame, a main frame, a right arm lifting unit, a left leg lifting unit, a side block lifting unit, and a sub-frame tilting unit. The sub-frame includes a center block and a central shaft. The main frame surrounds and supports the sub-frame. The right arm lifting unit is supported by the sub-frame below the right arm lifting block. The left leg lifting unit is supported below the left leg lifting block by the sub-frame. The side block lifting unit is supported below the right block by the sub-frame. The sub-frame tilting unit includes a first gear, a second gear, a chain, and a first gear driving motor. | 01-07-2016 |
