FIELD: medical equipment. SUBSTANCE: apparatus has frame with sides and end and central cross-pieces, annular flexible strips arranged between end cross-pieces, lumbar stop, rigid transverse ribs fastened to flexible strips and inclined from lumbar stop under the action of vertical load. Panels with neck projection for head and panel for shin are positioned on respective bases for spring-biased displacement away from lumbar stop. Bases are arranged so that their position with respect to frame may be adjusted. Shin panel base is positioned behind frame end cross-piece on mounting surface common for shine panel and frame and is joined with frame so that position of this base relative to frame may be adjusted. Shin panel base is made in the form of U-shaped clip whose upper parts are pivotally connected to shin panel at side adjacent to lumbar stop, and thrust wheels attached to other side of this panel. Head supporting panel is made in the form of transverse tube arranged on frame sides under flexible strips for displacement along sides. Length of rigid transverse ribs is reducing from lumbar stop to head supporting panel. EFFECT: simplified construction and improved comfort for patient. 4 cl, 18 dwg
