ABSTRACT:
The object of the present invention is a hospital bed or a hospital table.
This bed or table comprise a base (1), a platform (2), a means (3) to adjust the height of the platform above the ground, a means (4) to adjust the inclination of the platform in proclivity/declivity, and a means (5) to adjust the inclination of the platform in cubitus/decubitus.
The invention bed is particularly remarkable in that the means (5) comprises a center axis (19) to which are hinged two connecting rods in the manner of a hinge and in that one of these connecting rods is hinged to the framework of the platform of the bed and in that the other one of these connecting rods carries rollers which engage in a U-shaped roller track.
An electric jack of the screw or nut type is connected to each connection rod. This electric jack either modifies the angular position of the connection rods in relation to the center axis, or maintains the angular position.
