Abstract
An infant incubator mattress positioning assembly having a pair of pneumatic lift mechanisms spaced apart on the deck of the incubator. Each lift mechanism is individually controlled to selectively raise or lower the ends of a mattress support which rest on the lift mechanisms. To prevent twisting or turning of the mattress support about its long axis as external forces are applied to the mattress support, each lift mechanism has transverse stabilizing means.
