  • Publication number: 20260137570
    Abstract: A side rail assembly may include a support rail connected to a medical bed, the support rail may include a slot disposed along an exterior surface the support rail and one or more indents positioned within the slot. The side rail assembly may include a carrier having two component halves, wherein the carrier is slidably connected to the support rail, wherein the carrier comprising a guide pin configured to slidably abut the slot. A side rail assembly may further include a side rail being rotatably connected to the carrier, wherein the guide pin is urged into the one or more indents when the guide pin is aligned with the one more indents, thereby allowing rotation of the side rail to a raised position and restricting movement of carrier along the support rail. Methods for moving the side rail and triggering a magnetic sensor are disclosed herein.
