A high deck multi-level ambulance cart. An upper frame forming a bed is supported above a lower frame, having wheels, by forward and rearward legs. The upper frame supports a longitudinal beam. The upper ends of the legs are slidably mounted on the beam and have multiple positions along the beam secured by releasable stops. By sliding the upper ends of the legs to selected positions, the upper frame can assume the following positions: (a) a transport position in which the frame is horizontal and legs are generally vertical; (b) a loading position in which the frame is shifted to an upwardly-inclined position by sliding the forward legs in a forward directon; (c) an intermediate position in which the upper frame is lowered to a horizontal position, below its transport position, by sliding the upper ends of the legs in a rearward direction while swinging the lower ends of the legs forward; (d) an in-car position with the legs swung rearwardly to lie against the upper frame.

A multi-level ambulance cart comprising, an upper frame forming a bed, a lower frame, wheels supported on said lower frame, forward and rearward vertical legs connecting said upper frame to said lower frame with said lower frame approximately centered below said upper frame, means pivotally mounting said legs to said lower frame, means pivotally and slidably mounting said legs to said upper frame, means for locking the upper ends of said legs selectively in a transport position in the center portion of said cart and in home bed position toward the rear of said cart, and means maintaining said lower frame approximately centered below said upper frame as said slidable mounting means are shifted between said two positions.
