A steerable ultra-low patient bed that incorporates a means for maintaining verticality of the caster stem at all height positions of the bed and a means for selectively locking the caster assemblies of the bed in a desired locking position. The means for selectively locking the caster assemblies may be actuated from either end of the bed using a central actuation mechanism. The bed according to the present invention has legs that are pivotally and translatably attached at their upper end to a frame of the bed and caster support members that are longitudinally aligned with the bed pivotally attached to the lower end of each leg. The caster support members each have a single caster assembly attached thereto. The means for maintaining verticality of the caster stem incorporates a constraint means that urges the caster support member in a direction of rotation opposite to that of the leg during adjustment of the height of the bed.

L'invention concerne un lit de patient ultra-bas maniable comprenant un moyen permettant de maintenir verticalement la tige de roulette à toutes les positions de hauteur du lit et un moyen permettant de verrouiller sélectivement les ensembles roulettes du lit dans une position de verrouillage souhaitée. Ce moyen permettant le verrouillage sélectif des ensembles de roulettes peut être actionné d'une extrémité quelconque du lit à l'aide d'un mécanisme d'actionnement central. Le lit selon l'invention a des pieds dont les extrémités supérieures sont montées pivotantes et translatables au cadre du lit et les éléments support de roulette qui sont alignés longitudinalement au lit, sont montés pivotants à l'extrémité inférieure de chaque pied. Les éléments support de roulettes ont respectivement un ensemble roulette unique fixé à cet élément support. Le moyen permettant de maintenir verticalement la tige de roulette comprend un moyen de contrainte qui pousse l'élément support de roulette dans une direction de rotation opposée à celle du pied pendant l'ajustement de hauteur du lit.
