Multi-Position Hydraulic Patient Transfer Stretcher for Hospital Care
Product Overview
Multi-Position Hydraulic Patient Transfer Stretcher for Hospital Care
This multi-position hydraulic patient transfer stretcher is designed for hospitals and professional healthcare facilities requiring flexible patient positioning and convenient access during transportation and nursing procedures. It combines a dual hydraulic lifting system, a four-section resin platform and multiple adjustable sections to accommodate different patient care requirements.
The stretcher features hydraulic height adjustment from 550 mm to 870 mm, pneumatic backrest adjustment from 0° to 90°, manual knee section adjustment from 0° to 40°, and whole-platform Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg positioning. Its rotating fold-down side rails provide access to the patient from four directions when lowered.
With a specified load capacity of at least 320 kg, a central braking system, four 200 mm casters and an additional directional fifth wheel, this stretcher provides an integrated configuration for hospital patient transportation and bedside care.
Four-Section Patient Platform for Flexible Positioning
The stretcher features a four-section resin patient platform designed to support different body positioning requirements. The segmented construction accommodates independent backrest and knee section adjustment, together with additional foot section angle adjustment.
Adjustable Backrest for Upper-Body Positioning
The backrest can be adjusted from 0° to 90° through a pneumatic spring-assisted mechanism. Three red release handles are positioned at the left, center and right sides of the head section for operating the adjustment system.
This configuration allows caregivers to change the patient's upper-body position according to the requirements of transportation and nursing procedures.
Adjustable Knee Section
The knee section supports manual adjustment from 0° to 40° through a hand-crank mechanism. An over-cranking protection function is incorporated into the adjustment system to help protect the mechanism from excessive operation.
The independent knee adjustment provides additional flexibility when positioning patients on the stretcher.
Adjustable Foot Section
The foot section also features an independent angle adjustment function, providing an additional positioning option for different patient care arrangements.
Hydraulic Height Adjustment for Different Care Requirements
The dual hydraulic cylinder system allows the complete patient platform to be raised or lowered between 550 mm and 870 mm.
This adjustable height range provides flexibility when preparing patients for transfer between compatible hospital beds and other medical equipment.
Dual Hydraulic Cylinder Configuration
The lifting system uses two hydraulic cylinders and is operated through foot pedals. Caregivers can adjust the overall platform height without relying on an electrically powered lifting motor.
- Minimum height: 550 mm
- Maximum height: 870 mm
- Adjustment range: 320 mm
- Lifting mechanism: Dual hydraulic cylinders
- Operating method: Foot-operated hydraulic controls
Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg Positioning
The complete patient platform supports Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg adjustment from -18° to +18°.
Angle indicators are installed on both sides of the stretcher, allowing caregivers to check the platform inclination during adjustment.
These positioning functions should be used according to the patient's clinical condition and the healthcare facility's procedures.
Rotating Fold-Down Side Rails for Convenient Nursing Access
The stretcher is equipped with two rotating side rails featuring a fold-down structure. When lowered into a horizontal position, the side rails provide caregivers with access to the patient from four directions.
This configuration is particularly relevant for healthcare facilities that require convenient access to different areas of the patient platform during nursing and repositioning procedures.
Four-Direction Patient Access
The rotating side rail structure allows the panels to be lowered horizontally, creating additional working space around the patient platform.
Caregivers can approach the patient from the head end, foot end and both sides when the surrounding space permits.
T-Shaped Side Rail Panels
The side rails feature a T-shaped panel design combined with a W-shaped safety locking mechanism.
The locking arrangement helps secure the side rails in their intended operating positions.
- Side rail quantity: Two
- Structure: Rotating fold-down design
- Panel configuration: T-shaped
- Locking mechanism: W-shaped safety lock
- Width with side rails folded down: 1250 mm
- Specified side rail load capacity: At least 10 kg
The side rails should be returned to their secured operating positions before patient transportation. Their specified load capacity does not indicate suitability for supporting patient body weight during transfers.
Central Braking System for Controlled Patient Care Operations
The stretcher incorporates a centrally controlled braking system connected to four 200 mm main casters.
Operating pedals are positioned at the front, rear, left and right sides, providing convenient access to the braking and directional control functions.
Four 200 mm Main Casters
The four main casters support stretcher movement within hospital departments and patient care areas.
100 mm Directional Fifth Wheel
An additional 100 mm directional fifth wheel is installed beneath the chassis. Its guiding function assists with directional control during transportation.
The combination of main casters, central braking and the directional fifth wheel provides an integrated mobility configuration for hospital use.
Reinforced Steel Frame with Protective Coating
The stretcher frame is manufactured from high-quality steel and finished with electrophoretic treatment followed by powder coating.
This surface treatment provides a protective finish for the metal structure and helps improve corrosion resistance in healthcare environments.
Load Capacity of at Least 320 kg
The specified load capacity is at least 320 kg, allowing hospitals and medical equipment distributors to evaluate this model for patient transportation requirements involving a higher-capacity stretcher.
Four Corner Bumper Wheels
Four bumper wheels are installed at the corners of the stretcher to help reduce direct impact between the trolley and surrounding walls or equipment during movement.
Integrated Accessories for Hospital Nursing and Transportation
The standard configuration includes several accessories to support routine hospital transportation and bedside operations.
Two Foldable IV Poles
One foldable, height-adjustable IV pole is installed at the head end and another at the foot end. This arrangement provides additional flexibility for different patient transportation configurations.
Movable Documentation Table
A documentation table measuring approximately 300 × 400 mm is installed at the foot end. The tabletop can be positioned horizontally facing either direction.
Oxygen Cylinder Positioning Slot
The lower chassis tray includes a designated positioning slot for an oxygen cylinder, providing an integrated storage location for compatible equipment.
Ergonomic Push Handles
The stretcher features a P-shaped push handle at the head end and a U-shaped push handle at the foot end, providing designated gripping positions during manual transportation.
80 mm Foam Mattress
The supplied mattress has dimensions of approximately 1880 × 620 × 80 mm and features an 80 mm foam layer.
