ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a hospital patient transporter for lifting a hospital patient from one location, such as, a hospital bed, moving the patient horizontally from the bed to a cart and depositing the patient on the cart, or vise versa. The transporter includes a pair of extendable rails which are particularly adapted for connection to a hospital bed. A carrier is movably mounted on the rails for moving the carrier horizontally on the rails. A patient support is included in the carrier for supporting a patient in a substantially horizontal attitude. A drive is connected to the patient support for selectively raising or lowering a patient carried on the patient support.
