Abstract
A multi-position support apparatus including a foot support, a tilting element, and a moving frame. The foot support is coupled to the tilting element, and the moving frame is configured to move in relation to the tilting element and below the foot support. Optionally, the moving frame supports a mattress. When the moving frame moves, the mattress supported by the moving frame moves also, thereby achieving a relative movement between the foot support and the mattress. The multi-position support apparatus is capable of changing its height and angle in relation to the ground and moving from an approximately vertical position to an approximately horizontal position.
