ITEM SUPPORT APPARATUSES AND SYSTEMS FOR BEDSIDE

摘要

An item support apparatus, such as an overbed table (10, 510, 710), for example, includes a support surface assembly (14, 514, 714), a base assembly, and a vertical column (40, 540) coupled to each of the support surface (14, 514, 714) and base (12, 512, 712) assemblies. A side assembly (16, 516, 716) is coupled to the base assembly (12, 512, 712) and configured to remain stationary while the support surface assembly (14, 514, 714) moves upwardly and downwardly relative to the base assembly (12, 512, 712). The overbed table (10, 510, 710) may further include a hand sanitizer container (28, 528, 828, 928, 1028) coupled with the support surface assembly (14, 514, 714) and configured to receive a removable hand sanitizer container unit. The base assembly (12, 512, 712) may include weight-activated casters (39). Other embodiments are also disclosed.
