Emergency medical services and paramedic simulation and training apparatus in a transferable environment

摘要

A remotely actuated emergency medical services training apparatus designed to simulate a moving ambulance. The apparatus is comprised of a mock up of the rear of an ambulance positioned on a set of suspension parts controlled by a computer. A lower base and an upper base are connected via a set of air springs, shock absorbers, and sway braces. The upper base is connected to the mock up of the ambulance. Air springs which move the upper base relative to the lower base are controlled by a set of programmed instructions resident on the computer or manually by a joystick controller connected to the computer. Each component of the apparatus is sized to be easily transported through typically dimensioned doorways and hallways such that assembly and disassembly within the confines of a typical classroom is possible.
