[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] Figures 1-4 The diagram shown is a complete structural schematic of a foldable telescopic stretcher for transferring wounded soldiers in battlefield medical care according to this utility model. Please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figures 1-4 This embodiment of a foldable telescopic stretcher for battlefield first aid includes a first stretcher 100 and a second stretcher 110 that cooperates with the first stretcher 100. A hinge pin 130 is connected at the junction of the ends of the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110. A support plastic plate 120 is also fixed inside the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110. Stretcher positioning locks 200 are provided on both sides of the junction of the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110 to lock the unfolded first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110 in a straight position. Telescopic legs 300 are longitudinally rotatably installed at the bottom of the opposite ends of the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110. Universal wheels 400 are provided at the bottom of the telescopic legs 300. Handles 500 are also fixed at the opposite ends of the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110. A pull-out auxiliary stabilizing belt assembly 600 is also provided on the handle 500.

[0021] Rotary buckles 140 are provided at opposite ends of the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110. The telescopic leg 300 includes a main support cylinder 310 with its upper end connected to the rotary buckle 140, a support leg 320 that extends and retracts inside and at the lower end of the main support cylinder 310, and a locking bolt 330 that is threadedly connected to one side of the lower end of the main support cylinder 310. The upper end of the support leg 320 also has a positioning hole that corresponds to the inner end of the locking bolt 330. A caster wheel 400 is installed at the bottom of the support leg 320. One side of the telescopic leg 300 has a first magnetic block 700 fixed to the side wall of the main support cylinder 310. The bottom edge of the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110 is also fixed with a second magnetic block 710 that magnetically attracts and cooperates with the first magnetic block 700. It is understandable that when not in use, the rotating buckle 140 can be unlocked directly, and the telescopic leg 300 along with the universal wheel 400 can be flipped to the bottom of the first stretcher 100 or the second stretcher 110. With the cooperation of the first magnetic block 700 and the second magnetic block 710, the telescopic leg 300 and the stretcher can be folded up and put away. When needed, it can be opened directly, which is time-saving and efficient. Specifically, when rescuing the injured, the stretcher is first unfolded and the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110 are fixed in place using the stretcher positioning lock 200. When the terrain and road conditions permit, the telescopic legs 300 are flipped to a vertical position and secured using the swivel buckle 140. Then, the telescopic legs 300 are pulled downwards so that the universal wheels 400 in contact with the ground and the stretcher reach a certain height. In this way, the rescuers can push / pull the stretcher in a comfortable and reasonable posture. At the same time, compared with simple manual carrying, the pushable stretcher significantly reduces the labor intensity and rescue difficulty of the rescuers, and the scope of application and practicality are further improved.

[0022] The auxiliary stabilizing harness assembly 600 includes a retractor 610 at the base of the handle 500, two ropes 620 extending from the retractor 610 and passing through the free end of the handle 500, and end clips 630 fixed to the outer ends of the ropes 620. It is understood that the retractor 610 uses a commercially available rope retractor with adjustable length. Specifically, when rescuers are carrying the injured person, they can easily pull out the ropes 620 from both handles 500, adjust them to a suitable length, and then use the retractor 610 to lock the rope length. The ropes 620 are then hung on the rescuer's shoulders. This allows the rescuer to hold the handles 500 while carrying the stretcher, and the ropes 620 prevent the stretcher and injured person from tipping over due to slippage, making the stretcher more stable during transport.

[0023] Furthermore, the stretcher positioning lock 200 includes a first pin cylinder 210 horizontally fixed to the side of the first stretcher 100, a second pin cylinder 250 horizontally fixed to the side of the second stretcher 110 and disposed opposite to the first pin cylinder 210, a pin 220 extending and retracting inside the first pin cylinder 210 and having its outer end inserted into the inner side of the second pin cylinder 250, a spring 230 disposed at the inner end of the first pin cylinder 210 and abutting against the inner end of the pin 220, a lever 240 fixed to one side of the pin 220, and a relief groove 2101 opened on one side of the first pin cylinder 210 and corresponding to the lever 240. It is understood that in this embodiment, the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110 are folded upwards. During the horizontal unfolding of the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110, the lever 240 and the pin 220 can be held by hand. After the stretcher is fully flattened, the pin 220 can be released. Under the action of the spring 230, the pin 220 is inserted into the pin cylinder 250. In this way, the first stretcher 100 and the second stretcher 110 form a fixed whole structure that unfolds. When folding, the operation can be reversed.

[0024] Furthermore, a reinforcing link 800 is fixed between the lower ends of the two supporting legs 320. It can be understood that the reinforcing link 800 can effectively enhance the support stability of the two telescopic legs 300 and prevent undesirable swaying during pushing and moving.

[0025] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
