摘要：
A foldable elongate body supporting device comprising an elongate body supporting surface (1) formed of a flexible material and comprising a plurality of linearly aligned support sections (1a) to (1e), each support section having secured on opposed sides a rigid tube (3) extending in the longitudinal direction of the device, the tubes (3) on each side of the sections being axially aligned, a space (4) being formed between each of the aligned tubes and the aligned tube of the adjacent section. A locking member (5) is slidably located in and extending through the aligned tubes on (3) each side of the device, the locking member (5) comprising a plurality of rigid locking tubes (6) each adapted to the movable into a locking position overlapping the spaces (4) between adjacent aligned tubes (3). The locking tubes (6) are joined by hinges (7). The locking tubes (6) are movable longitudinally relative to the aligned tubes (3) between a locking position, in which the rigid tubes (6) overlap the spaces between the adjacent rigid tubes to form a rigid side member on each side of the device, and a folding position in which the hinges are aligned with the spaces between the aligned tubes to enable the support sections to be pivoted to a folded position.Dispositif de support de corps allongé pliable comprenant une surface de support de corps allongé (1) formée à partir dun matériau souple et comprenant une pluralité de sections de support alignées linéairement (1a) à (1e), chaque section de support ayant, fixé sur des côtés opposés, un tube rigide (3) sétendant dans la direction longitudinale du dispositif, les tubes (3) sur chaque côté des sections étant alignés axialement, un espace (4) étant formé entre chacun des tubes alignés et le tube aligné de la section adjacente. Un élément de verrouillage (5) est situé coulissant dans et sétendant à travers les tubes alignés (3) sur chaque côté du dispositif, lélément de verrouillage (5) comprenant une pluralité de tubes de verrouilla
