ABSTRACT:
A patient support system comprises an operating table, a patient transporter and a table top that can be moved from the transporter to the pedestal of the table. A platform at the top of the pedestal has a lateral hinge and two hydraulically-operated locks located at the hinge, which engage with the table top. The table top carries four secondary locks that are operated by actuators in the platform to cause the locks to engage or disengage the transporter. Lock sensors cause the platform to move when they detect incomplete engagement of the locks.
