Abstract
The present disclosure pertains to a ventilator mount system. The system includes a ventilator mount configured to mount a ventilator thereon; a platform configured to be carried by a stand; and a releasable lock assembly configured to affix the ventilator mount to the platform. In some embodiments, the lock assembly is configured to be moved between a locked position and a release position. In some embodiments, the ventilator mount is releasable from the platform when the lock assembly is moved from the locked position to the release position.

A ventilator mount system, comprising:
- a ventilator mount configured to be coupled to a ventilator, the ventilator mount having a first surface positioned to contact the ventilator when the ventilator is coupled to the ventilator mount and a second surface opposite the first surface;
- a platform configured to be carried by a stand, the platform having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface;
- a releasable lock assembly configured to affix the ventilator mount to the platform such that the second surface of the ventilator mount is disposed against the first surface of the platform, the lock assembly configured to be moved between a locked position, in which at least a portion of the lock assembly extends outward from the first surface of the platform, and a release position, in which the portion of the lock assembly does not extend outward from the first surface of the platform, wherein the ventilator mount is releasable from the platform when the lock assembly is moved from the locked position to the release position;
- and
- a pair of flanges extending outward from the first surface of the platform at an angle with respect to one another.
A method for facilitating mounting a ventilator on a stand, the method comprising:
- providing a ventilator mount configured to be coupled to a ventilator, the ventilator mount having a first surface positioned to contact the ventilator when the ventilator is coupled to the ventilator mount and a second surface opposite the first surface;
- providing a platform configured to be carried by a stand, the platform having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface;
- and
- affixing, via a releasable lock assembly and a pair of flanges extending outward from the first surface of the platform at an angle with respect to one another, the ventilator mount to the platform, the lock assembly configured to be moved between a locked position and a release position, the ventilator mount being releasable from the platform when the lock assembly is moved from the locked position to the release position.
