Design and Construction

At the heart of the YXH-1DL Folding Stretcher is a carefully balanced structure that emphasizes strength without sacrificing portability. The frame employs high-grade aluminum alloy, delivering a lightweight profile while offering exceptional load-bearing capacity. The folding stretcher mechanism features precision hinges and locking points that ensure rapid deployment and secure stabilization during use.

Key Features

- Rapid Deployment: The folding stretcher unfolds quickly into a fully supportive structure, minimizing setup time in critical situations. This rapid transformation makes the YXH-1DL Folding Stretcher ideal for first responders and triage teams who must act decisively.

- Compact Storage: When folded, the unit becomes an ultra-compact portable rescue bed that takes up minimal space in ambulances, rescue vehicles, or supply caches. This compactness is particularly valuable for search-and-rescue operations where space and weight constraints are paramount.

- High Load Capacity: Engineered medical transport equipment specifications ensure the stretcher can support a wide range of patient weights safely. The robust frame combined with a resilient platform material ensures that caregivers can rely on the system during high-stress evacuations.

- Ergonomic Design: Thoughtful handle placement and balanced weight distribution reduce caregiver fatigue and improve control while carrying patients. Ergonomics also contribute to safer lifting techniques and smoother patient transitions between surfaces.

Applications

The YXH-1DL Folding Stretcher excels across a wide array of scenarios where portable rescue bed capability and reliable medical transport equipment are essential. Emergency medical services (EMS) and ambulance teams benefit from the stretcher’s fast deployment and compact stored size, enabling paramedics to move patients efficiently and with minimal delay. In hospital settings, the folding stretcher provides a practical solution for overflow triage zones, patient transfers between departments, and temporary holding during peak demand.

Innovations and Technical Advantages

XieHe’s commitment to innovation is evident in the YXH-1DL Folding Stretcher’s combination of advanced materials and user-centered engineering. The precision hinge system is designed to lock smoothly and safely into place, reducing the potential for accidental folding during use. The hinge and frame tolerances are optimized to resist wear and maintain alignment, extending the operational lifespan of the folding stretcher under frequent deployment cycles.

Description

This folding stretcher is made of high strength aluminum alloy and canvas materials.

This stretcher is intensified stretcher, with flexible handle and outrigger, can be folded by lengthwise.

It is characterized by its being light-weighted, portable, easy to carry out and safe to use.

It is mainly used for battlefield and outdoor carrying patients and wounded person.

The Xiehe Medical YXH-1E is a heavy-duty folding stretcher featuring a longitudinal folding design, constructed with a high-strength aluminum alloy frame and high-tenacity Oxford fabric with a PVC-coated back, offering excellent waterproofing and abrasion resistance. The YXH-1E is characterized by its lightweight design, portability, ease of handling, and safe application. When fully deployed, it measures 180 cm in length, providing ample lying space for patients; when folded, it compacts to just 45×50×13 cm, easily fitting into a carrying bag for single-person transport, vehicle storage, or centralized management. Equipped with flexible handles and side outriggers, it requires no tools for rapid deployment and folding, making it suitable for pre-hospital emergency care, in-hospital patient transfer, disaster relief, and outdoor search and rescue missions. The PVC-coated surface provides fluid resistance and stain protection, facilitating easy cleaning and disinfection in compliance with medical hygiene standards.

Construction & Materials

The YXH-1E frame is constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy tubing with reinforced structural design, delivering excellent impact resistance to maintain stable load-bearing capacity across various terrains. The stretcher weighs only 4.5 kg with a maximum safe working load of up to 159 kg—achieving an optimal balance between ultra-lightweight portability and structural strength.

The patient contact surface is made from high-tenacity Oxford fabric with a PVC-coated back, offering excellent waterproofing and abrasion resistance. This surface prevents liquid penetration, withstands repeated cleaning with hospital-grade disinfectants, and provides a smooth, non-abrasive layer to reduce patient discomfort during transport. The fabric is securely attached to the aluminum frame, eliminating any risk of detachment under load.

The stretcher is equipped with flexible handles featuring non-slip grips for stable handling, and side outriggers that provide stable support when deployed, ensuring steady placement across various terrains. All aluminum components undergo corrosion-resistant anodizing treatment, ensuring long-term durability in humid, dusty, or salt-spray environments.

Design Features

Compact Longitudinal Folding Design

The YXH-1E features a unique longitudinal folding structure that collapses to just 45×50×13 cm when folded—compact enough to fit into a carrying bag or vehicle trunk. Unlike traditional center-folding stretchers, the longitudinal folding design maintains the folded width while significantly reducing the folded length, making it particularly suitable for storage and transport in confined spaces.

Rapid Deployment and Folding

The longitudinal folding mechanism is easy to operate, requiring no tools for deployment or folding by a single operator within seconds. When unfolded, the stretcher extends to 180 cm in length, providing ample lying space for patients; when folded, it measures just 45 cm in length, facilitating easy carrying and centralized storage.

Reinforced Load-Bearing Structure

As a heavy-duty stretcher, the YXH-1E features reinforced design at key stress points on the frame, ensuring that the stretcher does not deform or fracture under shaking during rough terrain evacuation. The frame tube wall thickness and connector strength have been optimized to meet long-term reliability requirements under demanding conditions.

Waterproof, Easy-to-Clean Surface

The smooth, non-porous PVC-coated surface effectively prevents blood, bodily fluids, and various disinfectants from degrading the fabric. The stain-resistant surface allows for quick cleaning with a damp cloth or disinfectant spray after each use—significantly improving turnaround efficiency for multi-task continuous operations while meeting medical hygiene standards.

Applications

Pre-Hospital Emergency & In-Hospital Transfer: Ultra-lightweight design allows paramedics to carry the stretcher up and down stairs with minimal effort—an ideal tool for daily emergency response and patient transfers within healthcare facilities.

Outdoor Search & Mountain Rescue: Compact folded dimensions facilitate carrying on steep slopes, dense forests, and narrow trails—making it a practical choice for mountain rescue teams and field operation crews.

Disaster Site Rescue: In natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, the folded design allows for compact stacking and rapid distribution of multiple stretchers.

Emergency Preparedness: Can serve as ambulance backup stretchers, hospital emergency reserves, and emergency equipment for outdoor venues.
