Abstract: Cabinet modules are readily attached and removed from selected attachment parts on a vertical support to provide customized portable storage and instrument mounting. Drawers may be accommodated within a module. A lock on a single drawer can secure all other drawers and modules on one side of the vertical support. An uninterruptable power supply can e incorporated into an enclosed, ventilated module and located at an attachment point low on the vertical support to maintain a low center of gravity while supplying portable power to electronic instruments carried on the vertical support.

Abstract: The stand incorporates two pairs of wheels and a support pole carried from a central pivot member. The stand is collapsible from an upright orientation in which all wheels are floor-engaging to a folded orientation in which the wheels lie closely alongside the support pole. The wheels are carried on wheel support elements which in turn are connected to a central pivot member. Folding and collapsing actions are synchronized by control arms that extend between the support pole and wheel support elements.

Abstract: A quick clamping system has a clamping device for releasable clamping engagement in a clamping direction with a selected support member oriented vertically or horizontally. A support portion on the clamping device projects outwardly from the support member, and has three orthogonally oriented mounting bores projecting inwardly from spaced regions on the outer surface of the support portion such that one of the bores will be upright whatever the orientation of the support member. A carrier for supporting one or more objects, such as medical equipment, has a pin member for selective engagement in the upright mounting bore.

Abstract: A mobile support stand for hospital equipment has a plurality of poles projecting upwardly from a wheeled base with IV hangers at the upper ends of the poles. The base has a span sufficient to provide the needed stability against tipping, with legs projecting outwardly from the base with wheels at their free ends for supporting and transporting the stand. At least one of the legs is retractable between a fully extended, operative position and a retracted, non-extended position. A securing mechanism allows the stand to be secured to existing mounting holes on a hospital bed with the retractable leg facing outward, and once the stand is secured to the bed the retractable leg is retracted out of the way so that the floor space taken up by the bed and attached stand is minimized.

Abstract: A support for an ambulatory patient has a hub member with a mounting device for mounting the hub member on a vertical IV pole of a wheeled IV stand. An arcuate hand grip member is secured to the hub member and radially spaced from the mounting device for gripping by an ambulatory patient receiving medication from an IV bottle on the stand. A downwardly facing, U-shaped channel is provided on the hub member for allowing the support to be hooked onto the rim of the head or foot board of a bed or gurney.

Abstract: An apparatus for installing a cubicle curtain or IV track on a dropped ceiling constructed with standard tee-bars and lay-in tile includes a sliding channel member for sliding engagement over the track, and a clip device secured to the upper wall of the channel member for engaging over a ceiling tee-bar. The channel member can slide along the track and the clip device can slide along the tee-bar for positioning the track, before fastening the track in position. The clip device in one version includes a vertical support for direct attachment to ceiling or roof wires, where additional support is necessary.
