This study concentrates on longterm incremental and sensitivity analysis to determine whether it is feasible to incorporate current battery technology into these machines. When revenue was taken into account, decreasing the amount of haulage in battery operated equipment by 5% or 200 kg per h amounts to a $4.0 × 10~4 loss of profit per year. On average it was found that using battery operated equipment generated $9.5 × 10~4 more in income annually, reducing the payback period from seven to two years to pay back the additional $1.0 × 10~5 investment of buying battery powered equipment over cheaper diesel equipment. Due to the estimated 5% increase in capital, it was observed that electric vehicles must possess a lifetime that is a minimum of one year longer than that of diesel equipment.展开更多

A sliding sleeve, a limit pin, a fixing cylinder and a spring;the trapezoidal sliding sleeve is matched on the trapezoidal base, a pin shaft hole is arranged on the trapezoidal base, the fixing cylinder is fixed on the trapezoidal sliding sleeve, and the limit pin is sleeved in the fixing cylinder, The bottom of the limit pin protrudes from the trapezoidal sliding sleeve, and the upper part is provided with a traction rod;the spring is sleeved on the traction rod, and a limiting plate is arranged at intervals on both sides of the trapezoidal base, and the limiting plate is wrapped in the trapezoidal sliding sleeve. The outer end: by setting the transfer component, the bed board is allowed to be fixed, slid and completely disengaged from the support frame, which is convenient for transferring the bed board together with the patient on it during the patient transfer process. It provides convenience for medical staff.展开更多
