  • Patent number: 7559098
    Abstract: A motion control apparatus for a hospital bed includes an axial shaft passing through two wheel modules. Three pedals capable of swinging upwardly and downwardly are pivotally disposed on the chassis in parallel. Driving components are fixedly disposed in opposite directions on the axial shaft corresponding to the pedals on two sides. A coupler is disposed between each driving component and pedal. When one of the two pedals on the two sides is stepped on downwardly, the axial shaft is driven to turn and results in braking of the wheel modules. When the middle pedal is stepped on downwardly, the other pedals gathered together swing downwardly at the same time, and the pedals on the two sides come to lean on the middle pedal at the same time and stop, resulting in disabling of the braking or orientation function.
