3D P0rinted Prototype Emergency Bed Cap

Medical Inflatable Bed Air Caps

When the Ambulance Services are attending an incident they may need assistance to move a patient, medics can put them onto these inflatable beds which inflate in 30 seconds.

The Problem:

The cap was cracking and leaking and the air is coming out of it, resulting in less efficient results and potentially costly replacements.

The Solution:

We 3D Scanned the existing screw thread cap, created a CAD model, scaled it up and 3D printed a new one in a Nylon material. We glued it over the current cracked cap which sealed the air when screwed shut. This has enabled the bed to be used effectively into the future.
