The invention relates to a vehicle used in transporting or treating large numbers of victims or patients from a mass-casualty incident to or from a hospital in an evacuation situation. The typical vehicle contains a stacked stretcher system, a loading ramp system, and an oxygen system. This vehicle must have an independent energy source or must be capable of being powered by an outside energy source. The vehicle can be flexible enough to provide facilities for treatment of victims either at the site of a disaster, in route from the disaster, at any remote site, or near a healthcare facility. A variation of the vehicle contains refrigeration or freezer units and is capable of transporting or maintaining casualties until mortuary services can be obtained. Variations of the equipment include trays made of stainless steel, stretchers that can be easily cleaned and that allow for easy drainage of liquids. |

A backpack employs a collapsible stretcher and a collapsible wheel assembly. The backpack may be transformed from a compact mode suitable for portability of the backpack to an extended mode wherein the stretcher is extended. A pair of wheels are inflated so that the wheels at one end contact the terrain and at the other end the stretcher is engaged to the backpack to provide for an efficient transport of an injured individual placed in the stretcher. |

A mission adaptable multi-purpose, collapsible portable cart/utility table, for use in emergency response and disaster situations, camping, hunting and other outdoors activities, which carries medical rescue carts, canoes, small boats, game, or hauled cargo by hand. The portable cart/utility table can be converted to a various uses and the portable cart/utility table can be folded down and transported within a wheeled bin, backpack, hand carried bag, canoe or boat. It transports injured persons or cargo over long, rough terrain and it can broken down into a carrying position, by hand or by back. The objects being carried can be held by clamps, by fasteners, or through the use of insertions with longitudinally extending channels. An optional pivotable kickstand and/or tie rods can stabilize the cart in a position of rest. The portable cart/utility table can also be the basis of a reconfigurable, modular, expandable medical critical care point of need field installation system deployable by land, sea, and air to reach very remote and rugged regions. |

The present invention relates to an emergency vehicle cot that includes an incline support system and a movement system. The incline support system is a retractable system disposed on the bottom of the cot to support one end the cot on an inclined and/or irregular surface during transportation. For example, one embodiment of an incline support system includes two members that are configured to extend from the inclined end of the cot at a particular angle. The extended members support the cot a particular distance over the inclined surface thereby minimizing the need for an emergency worker to manually support the inclined end of the cot. The movement system is coupled to the incline support system and utilizes rotational movement to allow the supported inclined end of the cot to move over the inclined surface. For example, one embodiment of a movement system includes a rotatable track with a motor system and a brake system. The incline support system and the movement system are configured to be retractable or concealable within the cot to facilitate using the cot as a traditional emergency vehicle cot. |

A lightweight, compact power lifting unit has one or more tension arms for applying the force required to adjust the height of a "gurney" or mobile patient transporter. In one embodiment, a ball screw and nut are used to drive the tension arms, reducing both the weight and the power requirements of the power lifting unit. The power lifting unit is adaptable to being installed on existing transporters. |

A bendable transferring bed has a bed frame, multiple bed-panel units, and at least one coupling. Each two adjacent ones of the bed-panel units are pivotally connected to each other. Each bed-panel units has a moveable bed-panel and a transmission shaft. The moveable bed-panel is moved relative to the mounting frame through the rotating of the transmission shaft. The two transmission shafts of each two adjacent ones of the bed-panel units are connected by one of the couplings, and thus the moveable bed-panels of all the bed-panel units can be moved together. The moveable bed-panels of the bed-panel units are bendable relative to each other to keep the patient in a sitting position or other positions. The moveable bed-panels can be moved when the moveable bed-panels are bent relative to each other by the coupling, such that the patient can be moved when in the sitting position. |

An emergency cot includes a litter frame, a base, and a lift assembly supporting the litter frame relative to the base. The lift assembly includes load bearing members pivotally coupled to the litter frame by head-end upper pivot connections and foot-end upper pivot connections and to the base by head-end lower pivot connections and foot-end lower pivot connections for raising or lowering the base or the litter frame with respect to the other. The foot-end upper pivot connections or head-end upper pivot connections are movable toward or away from the longitudinal axis of the litter frame to allow one end of the litter frame to be tilted upwardly. |

A patient transport apparatus comprises a support structure. The support structure comprises a base, a frame, and a patient support surface to support a patient. One or more handle assemblies are coupled to the frame to maneuver the patient transport apparatus. The handle assemblies comprise one or more handles to be manipulated by a user. The handles are capable of being adjusted to facilitate maneuvering of the patient transport apparatus, such as pushing/pulling the patient transport apparatus along a floor surface, lifting the patient transport apparatus over obstacles, loading the patient transport apparatus into an emergency vehicle, and/or unloading the patient transport apparatus from the emergency vehicle. |
