ABSTRACT:
A medically equipped vehicle has a cabin adapted to accommodate medical apparatus such as infusion flasks and respirators. These items of medical apparatus are located in containers 11, 12 which are pivotally fastened at 13 to a ceiling or associated part of the cabin. When not in use the apparatus can thus be stowed in an enclosed space defined between the container and the ceiling. The container can be pivoted downwardly to a hanging position in which the enclosed apparatus is readily accessible. To keep blood plasma and the like at the required temperature a heating device 41 or, a heat exchanger which can be used both for cooling and heating purposes, is incorporated in the container. The container is usefully of thermally insulated construction. Cables and lines necessary for the respirators and for infusion purposes are conveniently connected to the associated apparatus ready for use. Connections to auxiliary apparatus such, as oxygen bottles are conveniently made by ducting the connection lines through the ceiling of the vehicle.
