ABSTRACT:
A capsule apparatus for transporting a disabled person from an underground mine or over rough terrain aboveground includes an elongated base with upstanding side walls extending about the periphery of the floor which has inclined forward and aft floor sections. A plate extends from the floor of the base between opposed side walls thereof to define a supply compartment at one side of the plate and a disabled person compartment at the other side of the plate. The plate is adjustably fastened to the side walls of the base. The base is provided with a mattress to support the disabled person. Elongated top sections include abutting end surfaces to form a top closure which is releasably secured by latch members to the elongated base. A sliding window for a hatch within one of the top sections for visual monitoring and voice communication is used to provide continued first aid for an injured person therein. The base is coupled to a conveyor belt by anchor members with releasable clamp jaws. The anchor members are joined to the base by cables. Rails are attached by locking hinge members to swing for use as skid runners and handrails.
