PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a carrier that is capable of preventing a cared person from falling off, and enables a work on the carrier to be easily performed.SOLUTION: The carrier is provided with a stretcher 2 for mounting the cared person, and side fences 3 rotatably attached at both side edge parts of the stretcher 2. The side fences 3 are respectively formed in a V-shape in a standing position outwardly with respect to the stretcher, the side fences 3 each having a lower side fence part 30 including an approximately lower half part of the V-shape, and an upper side fence part 31 including an approximately upper half part of the V-shape. Each of the side fences 3 is rotationally moved in such a manner that the lower side fence part 30 is approximately flat with respect to the stretcher 2 and the upper side fence part 31 is inclined with respect to the stretcher 2 in a horizontal position.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2【課題】被介護者の転落を防止することができ、搬送機器上での作業が行い易い搬送機器を提供する。【解決手段】被介護者を載せるための担架本体2と、担架本体2の両側縁部に回動可能に取り付けられたサイドフェンス3と、を備える。サイドフェンス3は、起立姿勢の状態で、担架本体に対して外側へ「く」の字形状に形成され、「く」の字形状の略下半分を含む下側フェンス部30と、「く」の字形状の略上半分を含む上側フェンス部31と、を有する。サイドフェンス3は、水平姿勢の状態で、下側フェンス部30が担架本体2に対して略平坦となり、上側フェンス部31は担架本体2に対して傾斜するように回動される。【選択図】図2
