Abstract:
A patient support platform is provided with compound leg structure which allows the platform to move to a squatted position giving easy access for a patient or to disposition of a patient thereon and, at the same time, the platform is adjustable to elevated positions so that a standing attendant may administer to the patient. Supporting feet are disposed in a fixed, predetermined pattern and provide pivot points to which the compound leg structures are pivoted. The compound leg structures effect raising and lowering of the platform without changing or disturbing the positions of the feet.
