A body support frame is pivotally mounted on a central housing which is suspended between a pair of frame members which comprise the mobile frame. The elevation of the central housing is adjustable to accomodate changes in the length of the body frame, and a motor driven unit within the central housing provides powered raising and lowering of the body support frame.
