PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an infant incubator not interfering with a procedure and an examination, providing an optimal temperature environment for an infant stored at an optional position on a bed, and having a heater exerting a little thermal influence on a person giving the procedure.SOLUTION: An infant incubator includes: a bed a first supporting-shaft extending substantially horizontally a rotation stay rotationally turning integrated with the first supporting-shaft a second supporting-shaft provided on the rotation stay and a heater disposed at obliquely above the bed, and supported by the rotation stay reciprocatingly, rotationally turning about the second supporting-shaft within a predetermined range. The rotation stay is reciprocatingly, rotationally turned about the first supporting-shaft within the predetermined range such that the heater is rotationally turned integrated with the rotation stay, and an attitude of the heater can be varied between a heating attitude for emitting the heat ray and a storage attitude for retracting from above the bed and in the heating attitude, the heater is reciprocatingly, rotationally turned about the second supporting-shaft within a predetermined range so as to further vary an emission angle of the heat ray of the heater.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】処置や検査の邪魔とならず、臥床台上の任意の位置に収容された児に対して最適な温度環境を提供でき、処置者に対する熱の影響の小さい加熱器を備える保育器を提供する。【解決手段】臥床台と、略水平方向に延びる第1支持軸と、この第1支持軸と一体に回動する回転ステーと、この回転ステーに設けられた第2支持軸と、前記臥床台の斜め上方に配置され前記第2支持軸を中心として前記回転ステーに対して所定範囲で往復回動可能に支持された加熱器とを備え、前記回転ステーが前記第1支持軸を中心として所定範囲で往復回動されることにより前記加熱器が前記回転ステーと一体に回動し前記加熱器の姿勢が熱線を照射する加熱姿勢と前記臥床台の上方から退避する収納姿勢とに変更可能であるとともに、前記加熱姿勢において前記加熱器が前記第2支持軸を中心として所定範囲で往復回動されることにより、前記加熱器の熱線照射角度がさらに変更可能である保育器。【選択図】図9
