ABSTRACT:
A quick release Fowler for hospital stretchers of the manual as opposed to the crank actuated type. A ratchet bar attached to the frame is provided with a sliding block and a pin that fits into slots in the ratchet bar. The pin is operated with respect to the slots remotely by a cable attached to a trigger/handle assembly at the head end of the Fowler. Safety means are provided so that the Fowler cannot be inadvertently lowered without the attendant assuming the weight of the Fowler, with or without a patient thereon, himself. The ratchet bar also permits a 90.degree. raised position of the Fowler to the stretcher top.
