Quickly lowered device for back rest of care bed allows in emergency cases, such as intensive care, back rest to be lowered to flat position in second

摘要

The quickly lowered device (8) for the back rest (2) of a care bed allows in emergency cases, such as intensive care, the back rest to be lowered to a flat position in a second. It has supports (6') formed into levers on opposite sides of the care bed, moving through a rotation angle (alpha). A transmission mechanism (17) transmits to a shaft (18). The shaft by means of a lever and a draw and pressure cable (20) operates the coupling (21) of the back rest, so that everything occurs in one movement and when the rapid lowering device is released the coupling is directly blocked.
