ABSTRACT:
A bed table with a vehicular mounting provides adjustable support for a person in a number of different postures, including a reclined table-like configuration and an erect chair-like configuration. The bed table is segmented into three portions, a head support portion, a medial or central support portion, and a leg support portion. The head support portion and leg support portion are pivotally mounted to a support base and are interconnected with linkage such that the leg support portion follows the rotational displacement of the head support portion. A pneumatic or hydraulic actuator is attached to the head support portion and is controlled through a control panel for automatic operation of the bed table, between the reclined table-like and erect chair-like configurations. An energy source for the actuator is provided by a vessel containing compressed nitrogen. The bed table is provided with a bedpan, swingably mounted into and out of engagement with the central support portion. When mounted against the central support portion, the bedpan is aligned with an aperture extending to the upper surface of the bed table.
