  AMENAGEMENTS AUX AMBULANCES AUTOMOBILES. 



   La présente invention concerne des véhicules automobiles du   ty-   pe camionnette dont l'espace arrière est aménagé en vue du transport des malades ou blessés. 



   A cet effet, il est connu de disposer le long de chaque paroi latérale du véhicule des   porte-brancards , généralement   répartis sur deux étages et destinés à recevoir les brancards eux-mêmes servant au transport des malades jusqu'au   véhicule,   
Ces porte-brancards peuvent en général être relevés   le' long   des parois verticales en l'absence de malade. Ces ambulances présentent encore certains inconvénients. Un premier inconvénient réside dans le fait que deux porte-brancards cote-à-cote en position horizontale ne laissent pas un espace suffisant entre eux pour permettre le passage du médecin ou de la personne d'accompagnement. 



  En effet, les porte-brancards ne doivent pas être disposés trop près de la paroi latérale car la porte arrière, par laquelle s'effectuent les manoeuvres d'entrée et de sortie des brancards ne s'ouvre qu'à une certaine distance de ces parois, de sorte que les manoeuvres en question sont malaisées à exécuter, nécessitant d'abord un soulèvement du brancard au-dessus de son support, puis sa rotation autour de ses pieds arrières, et enfin son extraction en ne reposant toujours que sur ces pieds arrières (ou la manoeuvre inverse pour l'introduction d'un brancard). Par contre, pour pouvoir rabattre le support-brancard contre la paroi, il faut que l'ensemble ne soit pas trop large puisque la hauteur de la paroi est généralement tout juste égale à deux fois la largeur totale du porte-brancard. 



   Le problème consiste donc à concilier d'une part l'aménagement d'un couloir central suffisamment large, et d'autre part la possibilité d'une manoeuvre aisée d'introduction et   d'extraction   des brancards. 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 2> 

 



   La présente invention a résolu ce double problème en permettant au porte-brancard d'être déplacé, soit par rotation, soit par translation, tout en restant parallèle à lui-même grâce   à   son mode de liaison avec le support basculant sur lequel il est disposé dans le véhicule. 



   Selon l'invention, chaque porte-brancard est monté parallèlement à une paroi latérale du véhicule sur un support basculant par l'intermédiaire d'éléments lui permettant de se déplacer par rapport à ce support tout en restant dans le même plan au moment du chargement   -(on décharge-   ment) des brancards et du repliement (ou dépliement) des porte-brancards. 



   Comme on vient de le dire ces déplacements peuvent être des rotations ou des translations. Dans le cas d'une rotation, celle-ci est destinée à amener l'extrémité du porte-brancard en regard de la porte arrière du véhicule (ou à l'en effacer); dans ce cas, l'axe de rotation est perpendiculaire à la barre transversale arrière du support et à l'entretoise transversale arrière du porte-brancard. 



  Grâce à cette rotation, on peut disposer le porte-brancard aussi près que possible de la paroi, ce qui laisse entre deux porte-brancards côte-à-côte un large   couloir,   le chargement ou le déchargement du brancard s'effectuant avec une grande facilité par l'amenée en position oblique du porte-brancard, la totalité de l'extrémité de celui-ci se trouvant en regard de la porte arrière, ce qui permet le passage du brancard lui-même sans   manoeu-   vre spéciale de soulèvement, les quatre pieds du brancard pouvant être amenés directement dans les rails correspondants du porte-brancard. 



   Dans le cas   où   les déplacements sont les translations du portebrancard, il s'agit de translations du porte-brancard parallèlement à luimême permettant de modifier la largeur du couloir tout en laissant la liberté de rapprocher les porte-brancards des parois pour permettre leur relèvement le long de celles-ci. A cet effet, les entretoises transversales de chaque porte-brancard coulissant sur les traverses   correspon-   dantes du support. 



   Enfin, il est prévu des moyens de verrouillage de chaque porte-   brancar--   sur son support dans toutes positions. 



   On comprendra mieux l'invention en se référant à la description suivante correspondant au dessin annexé qui représente: 
Fig. 1 une vue de dessus du dispositif de porte-brancard selon l'invention, en place dans la partie arrière d'une ambulance, le toit de celle-ci étant enlevé, et 
Fig. 2, une vue par l'arrière de   l'ambulance,   les portes étant enlevées. 



   Sur ce dessin, on a représenté en 1 la paroi latérale de l'ambulance interrompue dans l'espace 2 correspondant à la double porte arrière. De chaque côté et parallèlement à la paroi latérale 1 sont disposés des porte-brancards 3 qui, comme on le voit mieux sur la fig. 2, comprennent un support   4,   et un porte-brancard proprement dit 5. Le support 4 peut basculer autour d'un axe 6 pour se rabattre verticalement ou très peu obliquement contre la paroi 1. 



   Comme on le voit la traverse longitudinale 7 de chaque portebrancard en position de marche est située en face la paroi arrière 8 du véhicule, ce qui rend mal commode le chargement et le déchargement des brancards. 



   L'invention a consisté à permettre le pivotement de chaque portebrancard sur son support autour d'un axe 9 de façon à l'amener en 3', position oblique dans laquelle la traverse   longitudinale 7   vient en   7'   de telle sorte que la direction   7'   vient dans l'espace 2 et non plus contre la paroi 8. 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 3> 

 



   Le chargement et le déchargement d'un brancard deviennent alors très sim- ples puisqu'il suffit dans chaque cas de guider le brancard dans la même direction que son support au lieu de le soulever et de le mettre en posi- tion oblique par rapport à celui-ci,comme dans les systèmes existants. 



   Les porte-brancards étant aussi près que possible des parois latérales, l'espace D restant entre eux est considérable et constitue un couloir très commode pour le passage des personnes d'accompagnement. 



   De plus, au moment du relèvement suivant les flèches F, la distance entre l'axe 6 et la traverse extrême 10 est minimum, ce qui permet le logement facile des porte-brancards le long de la paroi. 



   Pendant le transport, il est avantageux de permettre le rappro- chement des brancards pour éloigner un peu le malade 1 et lui donner plus de confort. 



  A cet effet,le porte-brancard 5 peut coulisser dans des chapes 11 du support 4 en restant parallèle à lui-même de façon à venir dans une position voisine de celle des brancards dans les cannelures actuelles, position pour laquelle la distance D est beaucoup plus réduite. Ce coulissement est rendu possible par une lumière 12 pratiquée dans le longeron transversal   13   et permettant le passage de l'axe 9 de façon que l'on puisse à volonté réaliser la   translation   ou la rotation du porte-brancard. De toute façon, il est prévu des moyens pour bloquer par exemple le brancard dans sa position 3 et l'empêcher de tourner en 3' ou d'autres moyens de verrouillage empêchant ou permettant la translation, ces moyens devant être facilement accessibles et manoeuvrables en cas d'urgence. 



   Naturellement, au lieu d'un seul point de rotation à l'arrière en 9, on pourrait en prévoir un autre à l'avant pour une raison quelconque, par exemple une disposition différente des brancards pouvant être exigée par la présence de matériel encombrant ou de personnel dans l'espace arrière   14.   



   L'invention n'est donc pas limitée à la réalisation représentée, mais en couvre au contraire toutes les variantes.

  ARRANGEMENTS FOR AUTOMOTIVE AMBULANCES.



   The present invention relates to motor vehicles of the van type, the rear space of which is arranged for the transport of sick or injured persons.



   For this purpose, it is known to have stretcher holders along each side wall of the vehicle, generally distributed over two floors and intended to receive the stretchers themselves used for transporting patients to the vehicle,
These stretcher holders can generally be raised along the vertical walls in the absence of a patient. These ambulances still have certain drawbacks. A first drawback lies in the fact that two side-by-side stretcher holders in a horizontal position do not leave sufficient space between them to allow the passage of the doctor or the accompanying person.



  Indeed, the stretcher holders must not be placed too close to the side wall because the rear door, through which the stretcher entry and exit maneuvers are carried out, only opens at a certain distance from these. walls, so that the maneuvers in question are difficult to perform, requiring first a lifting of the stretcher above its support, then its rotation around its rear feet, and finally its extraction while still resting only on these feet rear (or the reverse maneuver for the introduction of a stretcher). On the other hand, in order to be able to fold the stretcher support against the wall, the assembly must not be too wide since the height of the wall is generally just equal to twice the total width of the stretcher holder.



   The problem therefore consists in reconciling on the one hand the development of a sufficiently wide central corridor, and on the other hand the possibility of an easy maneuver of introduction and extraction of the stretchers.

 <Desc / Clms Page number 2>

 



   The present invention has solved this double problem by allowing the stretcher holder to be moved, either by rotation or by translation, while remaining parallel to itself thanks to its mode of connection with the tilting support on which it is placed. in the vehicle.



   According to the invention, each stretcher holder is mounted parallel to a side wall of the vehicle on a tilting support by means of elements allowing it to move relative to this support while remaining in the same plane at the time of loading. - (unloading) of the stretchers and of the folding (or unfolding) of the stretchers.



   As we have just said, these displacements can be rotations or translations. In the case of a rotation, this is intended to bring the end of the stretcher holder opposite the rear door of the vehicle (or to erase it); in this case, the axis of rotation is perpendicular to the rear transverse bar of the support and to the rear transverse spacer of the stretcher holder.



  Thanks to this rotation, the stretcher holder can be placed as close as possible to the wall, which leaves between two side-by-side stretcher holders a wide corridor, the loading or unloading of the stretcher being carried out with a large facilitated by bringing the stretcher holder into an oblique position, the entire end of the latter being opposite the rear door, which allows the passage of the stretcher itself without any special lifting maneuver, the four legs of the stretcher can be brought directly into the corresponding rails of the stretcher holder.



   In the case where the displacements are translations of the stretcher holder, these are translations of the stretcher holder parallel to itself allowing the width of the corridor to be modified while leaving the freedom to bring the stretcher holders closer to the walls to allow them to be raised on along these. For this purpose, the transverse spacers of each stretcher holder sliding on the corresponding crossbars of the support.



   Finally, means are provided for locking each brancar- holder on its support in all positions.



   The invention will be better understood by referring to the following description corresponding to the appended drawing which shows:
Fig. 1 a top view of the stretcher holder device according to the invention, in place in the rear part of an ambulance, the roof thereof being removed, and
Fig. 2, a view from the rear of the ambulance with the doors removed.



   In this drawing, there is shown at 1 the side wall of the ambulance interrupted in the space 2 corresponding to the double rear door. On each side and parallel to the side wall 1 are arranged stretcher holders 3 which, as can be seen better in FIG. 2, comprise a support 4, and a stretcher holder proper 5. The support 4 can tilt around an axis 6 to fall back vertically or very slightly obliquely against the wall 1.



   As can be seen, the longitudinal cross member 7 of each stretcher holder in the operating position is located opposite the rear wall 8 of the vehicle, which makes it difficult to load and unload the stretchers.



   The invention consisted in allowing the pivoting of each rack on its support around an axis 9 so as to bring it to 3 ', an oblique position in which the longitudinal cross member 7 comes in 7' so that the direction 7 'comes in space 2 and no longer against wall 8.

 <Desc / Clms Page number 3>

 



   Loading and unloading a stretcher then becomes very simple since it suffices in each case to guide the stretcher in the same direction as its support instead of lifting it and putting it in an oblique position with respect to the latter, as in existing systems.



   The stretcher carriers being as close as possible to the side walls, the space D remaining between them is considerable and constitutes a very convenient corridor for the passage of accompanying persons.



   In addition, when lifting along the arrows F, the distance between the axis 6 and the end cross member 10 is minimum, which allows the easy accommodation of the stretcher holders along the wall.



   During transport, it is advantageous to allow the stretchers to be brought together to move the patient 1 away a little and give him more comfort.



  For this purpose, the stretcher holder 5 can slide in the yokes 11 of the support 4 while remaining parallel to itself so as to come into a position close to that of the stretchers in the current grooves, a position for which the distance D is much more reduced. This sliding is made possible by a slot 12 made in the transverse beam 13 and allowing the passage of the axis 9 so that one can carry out the translation or the rotation of the stretcher holder at will. In any case, means are provided for blocking, for example, the stretcher in its position 3 and preventing it from turning in 3 'or other locking means preventing or allowing translation, these means having to be easily accessible and manoeuvrable in emergency.



   Naturally, instead of a single point of rotation at the rear at 9, one could provide another at the front for any reason, for example a different arrangement of the stretchers which may be required by the presence of bulky equipment or personnel in the rear space 14.



   The invention is therefore not limited to the embodiment shown, but on the contrary covers all the variants thereof.
