Description

ABSTRACT:
A movable cart for supporting pressurized gas cylinders in hospital operating rooms has a housing preferably proportioned to enclose a pair of cylinders in upright side by side positions. Wheels at the base of the housing are positioned to support the housing when it is tilted for transporting while enabling the housing to rest directly on the underlying surface when in a more upright orientation. A third wheel carried by a pivoting leg is swung outward from the base of the housing when it is to be tilted and moved. The housing may have a plurality of gas outlet fittings, a cylinder selector valve, plural pressure regulators for simultaneous delivery of different pressures and plural gauges for indicating pressures in different portions of the gas flow path. The cart provides a highly stable support base for the cylinders in both the upright orientation and the inclined traveling position, facilitates movement of the heavy cylinders, protects the cylinders from damage and simplifies hospital procedures which require a supply of compressed gas.
