Abstract
Abstract A reanimation table for newborn infants comprises a base member having a top lying surface for receiving the infant and a block shape base member at one end of the lying surface. The block shape base member forms a support for pivotally supporting an outer support wall which may be made in one or two separately pivotal upright side surface forming members which are pivotally mounted adjacent each end of the block member. Support wall surfaces may be positioned in a horizontal position overlying the lying surface to confine the infant therein and provide a guide surface for it or the support surface or any portion thereof may be pivoted to an upright position extending out of the way of the lying surface for the infant. The construction also includes a U-shaped support yoke for mounting an electric radiation heater on a top cross leg or support web of the yoke in a position such that the heater extends outwardly over the lying surface. The protective wall provides an outer protection around the support yoke when the wall is in an upright position and it is sized so that it may be pivoted downwardly to the horizontal position without interfering with the operation of the heater.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
169 words
A reanimation table for a newborn infant comprising a receiving member having a top surface defining a substantially planar lying surface for receiving the infant, a base member mounted on said lying surface adjacent one end of said receiving member, a yoke member mounted on said base member and extending vertically upwardly therefrom, a radiation heater connected to said yoke member and extending outwardly over said lying surface, and a protective wall pivotally mounted to said base member, said protective wall comprising a single U-shaped part having leg portions on each side pivotally mounted adjacent each end of said base member and a web interconnecting said leg portions, said protective wall being pivotal between a first substantially horizontal position in engagement with said lying surface in which said leg portions and web extend upright to form with said base member an enclosure for the infant over said lying surface and a second position in which said protective wall may extend substantially upright out of engagement with said lying surface.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
169 words
A reanimation table for a newborn infant comprising a receiving member having a top surface defining a substantially planar lying surface for receiving the infant, a base member mounted on said lying surface adjacent one end of said receiving member, a yoke member mounted on said base member and extending vertically upwardly therefrom, a radiation heater connected to said yoke member and extending outwardly over said lying surface, and a protective wall pivotally mounted to said base member, said protective wall comprising a single U-shaped part having leg portions on each side pivotally mounted adjacent each end of said base member and a web interconnecting said leg portions, said protective wall being pivotal between a first substantially horizontal position in engagement with said lying surface in which said leg portions and web extend upright to form with said base member an enclosure for the infant over said lying surface and a second position in which said protective wall may extend substantially upright out of engagement with said lying surface.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
A reanimation table according to claim 1, wherein said protective wall includes wall portions having projections which engage on the lying surface and support the remaining portion of said wall above said lying surface.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
A reanimation table according to claim 1, wherein said base member comprises a block shaped member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
A reanimation table according to claim 3, wherein said block member is located adjacent an edge of said lying surface.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
22 words
A reanimation table according to claim 1, including means for locking said protective wall at a selected inclination above the horizontal position.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
198 words
A reanimation table for a newborn infant comprising a receiving member having a top surface defining a substantially planar lying surface for receiving the infant, a base member mounted on said lying surface adjacent one end of said receiving member, a yoke member mounted on said base member and extending vertically upward therefrom, a radiation heater connected to said yoke member and extending outwardly over said lying surface, a protective wall pivotally mounted to said base member, said protective wall comprising two separate parts symmetrically mounted to said base member, each of said parts having a leg portion pivotally mounted to one of the ends of said base member and a web portion extending toward the other of said parts from an opposite end of said leg portion remote from said pivotally mounted end, each of said parts being separately pivotal between a first substantially horizontal position in engagement with said lying surface in which said leg portions and said web extending upright to form with said base member an enclosure for the infant over said lying surface and a second position in which said protective wall may extend substantially upright out of engagement with said lying surface.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
198 words
A reanimation table for a newborn infant comprising a receiving member having a top surface defining a substantially planar lying surface for receiving the infant, a base member mounted on said lying surface adjacent one end of said receiving member, a yoke member mounted on said base member and extending vertically upward therefrom, a radiation heater connected to said yoke member and extending outwardly over said lying surface, a protective wall pivotally mounted to said base member, said protective wall comprising two separate parts symmetrically mounted to said base member, each of said parts having a leg portion pivotally mounted to one of the ends of said base member and a web portion extending toward the other of said parts from an opposite end of said leg portion remote from said pivotally mounted end, each of said parts being separately pivotal between a first substantially horizontal position in engagement with said lying surface in which said leg portions and said web extending upright to form with said base member an enclosure for the infant over said lying surface and a second position in which said protective wall may extend substantially upright out of engagement with said lying surface.
