PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dead body moving device for a dead body transporting vehicle, capable of effectively using a housing space of the dead body transporting vehicle for housing the dead body.SOLUTION: A dead body moving device 1 includes: a bed 2 to be loaded with a dead body to be transported by a dead body transporting vehicle an elevating means 3 for elevating the bed 2 a horizontal moving means 4 for laterally moving the bed 2 in the vehicle width direction of the dead body transporting vehicle and a control means 5 for controlling the elevating means 3 to lift the bed 2 up to a position higher than a tire house of rear wheels, and thereafter, controlling the horizontal moving means 4 to laterally move the bed 2 for positioning of the bed 2 above the tire house TH of the rear wheels. Since the horizontal moving means 4 horizontally moves a support base 41 loaded with the elevating means 3, the bed 2 is moved with the elevating means 3, and the dead body can be stably moved.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】遺体を収容する遺体搬送車の収容空間を有効的に使用することができる遺体搬送車の遺体移動装置を提供する。【解決手段】遺体移動装置1は、遺体搬送車により搬送される遺体が載置される寝台2と、寝台2を昇降させる昇降手段3と、寝台2を遺体搬送車の車幅方向へ横移動させる水平移動手段4と、昇降手段3により寝台2を後輪のタイヤハウスより高い位置まで上昇させた後、水平移動手段4により寝台2を横移動させて後輪のタイヤハウスTHの上方へ位置させる制御手段5とを備えている。水平移動手段4が昇降手段3を載せた支持台41を水平移動させることで、寝台2を昇降手段3と共に移動させるので、安定した移動を行うことができる。【選択図】図1
