Abstract:
Roll-in cots having wheel alignment mechanisms. According to one embodiment, a roll-in cot includes a support frame, a pair of legs pivotably and slidably coupled to the support frame, and a pair of hinge members that are pivotably coupled to the support frame and to one of the legs. The roll-in cot also includes a wheel linkage pivotably coupled to the pair of legs and a wheel alignment mechanism. The legs and the hinge members pivot relative to one another in a relative angular rotation ratio and the wheel alignment mechanism rotates the wheel alignment mechanism relative to the hinge members at a reduction ratio. The relative angular rotation ratio of the legs and the hinge members is approximately inverse to the reduction ratio of the wheel alignment mechanism.

Claim (Index 2):
The roll-in cot of  claim 1  further comprising:\n a second pair of legs pivotably and slidably coupled to the support frame; \n a second pair of hinge members, each hinge member pivotably coupled to the support frame and to one of the second pair of legs; \n a second wheel linkage pivotably coupled to the second pair of legs; and \n a second wheel alignment mechanism incorporated into at least one of the second pair of legs, the wheel alignment mechanism comprising a timing chain that is coupled to one of the second pair of hinge members and the second wheel linkage, wherein: \n the second pair of legs and the second pair of hinge members pivot relative to one another in a relative angular rotation ratio; \n the second wheel alignment mechanism rotates the second wheel linkage relative to the second pair of legs at a reduction ratio; and \n the relative angular rotation ratio of the second pair of legs and the second pair of hinge members is approximately inverse to the reduction ratio of the second wheel alignment mechanism.
