Litter with curved feet for easy loading

A litter for carrying an injured person, the litter comprising:

• a pair of frame rails defining a middle space therebetween;
• a carrying structure supported by the pair of frame rails within the middle space and defining a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the carrying structure is configured to support the injured person on the top surface;
• at least one spreader bar disposed between the pair of frame rails;
• and at least one foot defining a top and a bottom, wherein the top of the at least one foot is attached to a bottom side of at least one of the at least one spreader bar or at least one of the pair of frame rails, wherein each of the pair of frame rails extend along a longitudinal direction, wherein the at least one foot defines a cross-section in a cross-sectional plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, wherein the cross-section defines a perimeter extending, at least, from an exterior contact point with the at least one spreader bar or at least one of the pair of frame rails to an internal contact point with the at least one spreader bar or at least one of the pair of frame rails, wherein the perimeter includes an apex point, and the perimeter is curved from the exterior contact point to the apex point;
• wherein the at least one foot defines a curved surface leading downwardly from the top to the bottom vertically away from the top surface of the carrying structure and horizontally toward the middle space such that the litter is configured for supported rotation along the curved surface between a loading position and a flat position to aid in loading of the injured person.
