PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transport trolley avoiding, by an easy method, a collision that may occur between a steering roller of the transfer trolley and an operating table column, and capable of easily transporting an operating table column, and to provide an operating table.SOLUTION: The transport trolley for transport of a patient support surface and/or an operating table column of an operating table comprises: at least a limit specification device 558 that specifies a limit of turning movement of at least one caster 510 relative to a turning shaft a first engagement element 566 that moves a contact element of the limit specification device from a release position that does not specify the limit of the turning movement of the caster to a limit specification position that specifies the limit of the turning movement of the caster, by a contact between the operating table column that is elected on a same surface where the caster is supported and the first engagement element 566 and a second engagement element 604 that can change the location of the first engagement element 566 from the limit specification position to the release position by a contact between the operation table column in which the caster is separated from the support surface and the second engagement element 604.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】輸送台車の操舵転子と手術台の手術台支柱との間で起こる衝突が容易な方法で回避され、手術台支柱の容易な輸送が可能な輸送台車及び手術台を提供する。【解決手段】手術台の患者支持器及び/又は手術台支柱を輸送する輸送台車において、輸送台車は、少なくとも1つの足車510の旋回軸に対する旋回移動の限界を指定する少なくとも1つの限界指定装置558を備え、足車が支持されるのと同じ面に起立する手術台支柱と第1の係合要素566との接触により、足車の旋回移動の限界を指定しない解除位置から足車の旋回移動の限界を指定する限界指定位置に限界指定装置の接触要素を移動させる第1の係合要素を備え、足車が支持される面から離れた手術台支柱と第2の係合要素604との接触により、限界指定位置から解除位置への第1の係合要素566の位置変更を可能とする第2の係合要素を備える。【選択図】図25b
