Abstract
A hospital bed height limiting system comprising a processing unit operatively connected to each of a user interface, an elevation mechanism of the hospital bed and a height sensor. The processing unit is operable to receive a minimum height via the user interface and receive from the height sensor a current elevation mechanism height. The processing unit is operable to determine the bed height based on the current elevation mechanism height, and in response to the bed height being equal to the minimum height, the processing unit is operable to cause the elevation mechanism to stop a downward movement of the elevation mechanism. A hospital bed comprising the hospital bed height limiting system is also provided.
