Abstract: A new light multi-use collapsible stretcher for carrying load comprising: two opposing longitudinal frames, each comprising at least four frame plates; at least one bedding member, disposed between the longitudinal frames; plurality of hinges; and at least one foldable and reversibly lockable supporting bar, disposed between the two opposing longitudinal frames and pivotally connected to the two longitudinal frames by the hinges; the frame plates are pivotally connected to each other by the hinges in a series configuration; the hinges disposed between the frame plates in alternate rotation directions, such that the frame plates and the bedding member configured for a reversible operation of unfolding and folding of the stretcher into an unfolded and folded position.

Abstract: A foldable stretcher for transporting an object. The stretcher comprising: a plurality of substantially plane members pivotally connected with each other in series by means of hinges there between; handles pivotally connected to outermost of the plane members; and, at least two pluralities of props. The stretcher further comprises at least two pairs of sufficiently stiff wires. Each pair of the wires arranged along a corresponding long side of the stretcher; each the wire is mechanically connected to the stretcher at least two connection points; the handles adapted for actuating a tautening of at least one of the wires of each pair of wires by fixation of the handles when the stretcher is in the unfolded position.
