Abstract: A patient support apparatus for patients. The patient support apparatus comprises a base having a base frame and an intermediate frame. The patient support further comprises a litter configured to be docked to and undocked from a trolley that is configured to slidably translate along the intermediate frame between a plurality of positions including a trolley forward position and a trolley docking position. The litter includes a lower pin and an upper pin. The trolley is configured to receive the upper pin and the lower pin and includes a lower pin stop and an upper pin stop. The lower pin is configured to abut the lower pin stop and the upper pin is configured to abut the upper pin stop to dock the litter to the base.

Abstract: A patient transport apparatus including a patient litter and a litter support apparatus for supporting the patient litter from a ground surface. The litter support apparatus includes a litter support frame including a pair of litter supports spaced a distance apart to define a loading gap for receiving the patient litter therethrough. A handle system is coupled to the pair of litter supports and includes a handle assembly that is positionable between a closed configuration and an open configuration. The handle assembly extends across the loading gap defined between the pair of litter supports in the closed configuration and is positioned away from the loading gap in the open configuration.
