Abstract: An enclosure bed apparatus including a frame having legs connected to an upper structure, and a canopy affixed to the frame so as to define a three dimensional space therein. The upper structure includes side bars and end bars arranged in a generally rectangular configuration. The canopy includes a pair of sleeves at opposite sides of a top thereof which respectively receive the side bars of the upper structure therein. The canopy has vertical sleeve members extending downwardly so as to receive portions of the legs therein. The canopy has a pair of horizontal sleeves extending outwardly from a top thereof suitable for receiving respective end bars therein. The frame is arranged so as to be exterior of the three dimensional space defined by the canopy.

Abstract: A cellular patient support for therapeutic air beds according to the present invention for comprises an air cell container forming a plurality of air cell receptacles disposed in side-by-side relation. A plurality of low air loss air cells are removably positioned within respect ones of the air cell receptacles. An elongate air supply manifold extends along the length of the air cell container and is connected in air supplying relation with each of the air cells. Each of the connectors for the air cells is provided with a pressure control orifice which controls the respective pressure of the air cells and the air supply manifold in relation to the air delivery pressure of the air supply manifold. The air cells are removable from the air cell container and thus the container structure is capable of being efficiently cleaned to enhance the therapeutic aspect of the air bed system.
