A hospital bed (10) that is convertible to a chair for patient egress from the foot end of the bed. A patient support platform (18) has serially hinged, normally horizontal head (28), seat (30), thigh (32), and foot (34) panels. To convert the horizontal bed to the chair configuration, the patient support platform (18) in the lowermost vertical position is translated longitudinally toward the foot end of the bed (10). The head panel (28) is pivoted upwardly and the foot panel (34) pivots downwardly to a generally vertical attitude. The foot panel (34) includes a collapsing portion (46) which telescopes into a pivoting portion to thereby avoid interference with the floor as the foot panel (34) is pivoted to a vertical attitude.
Lit d'hôpital (10) transformable en fauteuil permettant au patient de sortir par le pied du lit. La plate-forme (18) supportant le patient comporte une suite de panneaux articulés normalement horizontaux, correspondant respectivement à la tête (28), au siège (30), aux cuisses (32) et aux pieds (34). Pour transformer le lit en fauteuil, la plate-forme (18), abaissée au maximum en position horizontale est translatée longitudinalement vers le pied du lit (10) tandis que les panneaux de tête et de pied sont respectivement inclinés vers le haut, et vers le bas sensiblement jusqu'à la verticale. Le panneau de pied (34) comporte une partie pliable (46) qui coulisse dans l'une des parties pivotantes et évite les contacts avec le sol lorsque le panneau (34) de pied est amené à la verticale.
