Abstract
The present invention is directed to a base member for a portable intravenous stand. The base member includes a plurality of segments configured to facilitate the close nesting or alignment of multiple portable intravenous stands; and thus reducing the amount of space required for storing the portable intravenous stands when not in use.
Claims20
A portable intravenous stand comprising:
- a base member including a plurality of segments substantially lying in a first plane;
- an outrigger member extending between and beyond each of the plurality of segments of the base member, wherein the outrigger member including a portion being elevated above a portion of the plurality of segments to facilitate positioning another similarly configured portable intravenous stand there under and proximate thereto;
- a plurality of rotating members operatively connected to each of the plurality of segments of the base member and the outrigger member;
- and,
- a support integral to the base member and capable of maintaining a pole member substantially perpendicular to the first plane.

A portable intravenous stand comprising:
- a base member including a plurality of segments substantially lying within a first plane, wherein the plurality of segments further include
- a main segment having a first and second end;
- a first adjacent segment having a first and second end, wherein the first end of the first adjacent segment being operatively connected to the first end of the main segment;
- a first rotating member being operatively attached to the base member proximate the connection of the main segment and the first adjacent segment;
- a second adjacent segment having a first and second end, wherein the first end of the second adjacent segment being operatively connected to the second end of the main segment;
- a second rotating member being operatively attached to the base member proximate the connection of the main segment and the second adjacent segment;
- a third rotating member being operatively connected proximate the second end of the first adjacent segment;
- a fourth rotating member being operatively connected proximate the second end of the second adjacent segment;
- a pair of concentric circles lying within the first plane, wherein the first and second rotating members lying upon a circumference of a first circle and the third and fourth rotating members lying upon a circumference of a second circle;
- and,
- a support integral to the base member and capable of maintaining a pole member substantially perpendicular to the first plane.

A portable intravenous stand comprising:
- a base member including a plurality of segments, wherein the plurality of segments further include
- a first segment having a first end and a second end;
- a second segment having a first end and a second end wherein the first end of the second segment is operatively connected to the first end of the first segment forming a first junction lying within a first plane;
- an outrigger member having a first end and a second end wherein the outrigger member first end is operatively attached to the first junction;
- a first rotating member operatively attached proximate the second end of the first segment;
- a second rotating member operatively attached proximate the second end of the second segment;
- a third rotating member operatively attached proximate the second end of the outrigger member wherein the first, second and third rotating members are within a second plane parallel to and lower than the first plane;
- a circle lying within the second plane, wherein the first, second and third rotating members essentially lie upon a circumference of the circle;
- and,
- a support integral to the base member and capable of maintaining a pole member substantially perpendicular to the first plane.
