In an incubator according to the present invention, physical condition of a newborn is less likely to get out of order though a hand insertion window can easily be opened by operation with, for example, an elbow instead of a hand. A latch in a latch mechanism has a spiral face that extends to at least part of the periphery of a rotation shaft that extends along a side of a newborn chamber. A releasing member in the latch mechanism presses the spiral face of the latch by movement along the side of the newborn chamber and rotates the latch from a holding position to a releasing position for a hand insertion door. In addition, even if the latch in the latch mechanism rotates about the rotation shaft between the holding and releasing positions for the hand insertion door, the releasing member does not rotate.

138 Infant support thermal control system and method US10123644 2002-04-16 US06666816B2 2003-12-23 Michael F. Mountain
A control system and a method for controlling an infant support configurable in a closed configuration in which a canopy contributes to formation of an enclosure about an infant support surface, and an open configuration is disclosed. The controlled infant support includes an air heater, a blower, and duct work communicating with the air heater, blower and enclosure. To facilitate bringing the air temperature within the enclosure quickly to a desired temperature whereby the temperature of an infant in the enclosure is controlled, power is supplied to air heater when infant support is in the open configuration to generate a heat reservoir. Upon the infant support assuming the closed configuration the controller controls power to the blower to increase air flow and infuse heat from the heat reservoir into the enclosure.

In this incubator, when the angle of a door to a nursing window of a hood is smaller than a rotation restricting angle, door rotation restricting means restrains the rotation of the door in an opening direction. Because of this reason, when the angle of the door is smaller than the rotation restricting angle, the door is not rotated in the opening direction beyond the rotation restricting angle and the angle of the door does not exceed the rotation restricting angle, even if the door is pushed by an accommodated baby from the inside of the hood under the state wherein the door is not fixed in the closing state by a door fixing device. Therefore, even if opening and closing operation for the nursing window is not securely performed, the environment inside the hood hardly deviates from the physiological environment appropriate for the accommodated baby to say the least.
