XieHe YXH-1A1 Folding Stretcher: Reliable, Portable Medical Transport for Rapid Response
The XieHe YXH-1A1 Folding Stretcher redefines expectations for a folding stretcher used across emergency response, medical evacuation, and patient transfer applications. Designed by XieHe with an emphasis on durability, weight efficiency, and rapid deployment, this folding stretcher meets the demands of professionals who require a dependable emergency stretcher in chaotic environments. As a portable medical transport solution, the YXH-1A1 combines intuitive operation with robust construction to support safe, stable patient carry in ambulances, field clinics, disaster zones, and evacuation routes.
Product features and design highlights
The YXH-1A1 is engineered to deliver superior functionality as a folding stretcher while remaining remarkably compact when stored. Its folding mechanism allows first responders to convert the unit from a compact transport form into a fully extended emergency stretcher in seconds, reducing the time to patient care. Constructed materials and thoughtful ergonomics mean this folding stretcher functions as both an emergency stretcher and a lightweight patient carry option for multi-scenario use.
Applications and use cases
The XieHe YXH-1A1 Folding Stretcher is ideally suited to a broad range of applications where a reliable emergency stretcher or portable medical transport device is required. Ambulance services benefit from the stretcher’s compact folded size and low weight, which allow rapid stowage and retrieval during high-tempo operations. Fire departments and search-and-rescue teams value the ruggedness and rapid deployment of the folding stretcher for uneven terrain and confined-space evacuations.
Innovation and technical advantages
XieHe integrated several technical innovations into the YXH-1A1 Folding Stretcher to optimize performance. The frame uses a corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy that balances lightweight characteristics with the structural rigidity needed for safe patient carry. Precision joints in the folding mechanism are engineered for smooth, noiseless operation and long service life, reducing maintenance needs compared with conventional hinges. The fabric platform employs a reinforced weave and anti-microbial treatment to enhance hygiene while retaining flexibility for folding and storage.
Portability and ergonomics
Portability is central to the XieHe YXH-1A1’s design. The stretcher’s reduced mass makes it feasible for two responders to perform an efficient patient carry without excessive strain, and handles are positioned for ergonomic grip and coordinated lifting. Because many deployments require rapid movement across variable surfaces, the folding stretcher’s frame geometry supports secure bearing while minimizing snagging.
Why organizations choose the XieHe YXH-1A1
Decision-makers select the XieHe YXH-1A1 Folding Stretcher because it addresses the multiple demands of modern emergency response: fast deployment, portability, dependable patient security, and ease of maintenance. When organizations require a folding stretcher that functions equally well as an emergency stretcher and a general portable medical transport option, the YXH-1A1 delivers measurable benefits.

Construction & Materials
The YXH-1A5 frame is constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy tubing, chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. This durable material provides the structural rigidity needed to safely support patients up to 159 kg while maintaining a lightweight design that allows for easy handling and maneuverability.
The patient contact surface is made from waterproof, tear-resistant canvas material, offering reliable performance in demanding environments. This surface prevents liquid penetration, withstands repeated cleaning with hospital-grade disinfectants, and is easy to sterilize—making it suitable for repeated use in infection-sensitive settings.
The stretcher is equipped with built-in wheels and support legs (outriggers), providing flexibility for both wheeled transport and stationary positioning. The wheels enable smooth movement across flat surfaces, while the support legs ensure stable placement when loading or unloading patients.
All aluminum components undergo corrosion-resistant treatment, ensuring long-term durability even in challenging environments—including outdoor rescue operations, coastal regions, and vehicle storage where moisture exposure is common.
Design Features
Dual-Purpose Functionality with Detachable Body Bag
The YXH-1A5 comes standard with a detachable body bag, allowing the stretcher to be used for both patient transport and dignified body handling. This dual-purpose design eliminates the need for separate equipment, streamlining inventory and ensuring that first responders are prepared for any situation—whether responding to a medical emergency or managing mass casualty events.
Rapid Fold-and-Store Mechanism
A center-pivot folding system allows the stretcher to collapse from its full 185 cm length down to a compact 92.5 cm in a single motion. At only 11 cm thick when folded, it fits easily into ambulance compartments, emergency vehicles, hospital supply closets, or storage bays. Two units pack efficiently into one carton (104 × 22 × 54 cm), optimizing shipping and warehouse space.
Integrated Wheels and Support Legs
The YXH-1A5 is equipped with wheels and outriggers, providing versatile mobility options. The wheels allow for effortless transport across smooth surfaces, reducing physical strain on operators during patient movement. The support legs provide stable positioning when the stretcher is stationary, ensuring safe patient loading and unloading.
Flexible Handles for Multi-Person Carry
Ergonomic handles are positioned at both ends of the stretcher, allowing for two-person or four-person carries. The handles are securely attached to the aluminum frame, ensuring reliable weight distribution and safe handling during transport over uneven terrain or through confined spaces.
Patient Safety System
The YXH-1A5 comes with integrated restraint straps to secure patients during transport, preventing unintended movement or displacement—particularly important when navigating stairs, rough ground, or during ambulance loading procedures.
