Vanry B-1

Product Code: HFAF-HB-3754

Two cranks and no motors: a service plan that fits on one page.

Maintenance on this bed comes down to two crank drives, the castors and whatever rails are fitted. It sits the patient up and raises the legs to a fixed, published height of 500 mm, with no power supply and no electrical testing.

Sold as a Full-Fowler Manual Bed, the B-1 is a two-function manual hospital bed from Hebei Vanry Medical Devices. The datasheet lists backrest raise/lower and leg section raise/lower, and the Chinese product name describes a manual two-crank bed. Overall size is 2200 × 1000 × 500 mm, with height given as a single figure. No height adjustment, Trendelenburg, reverse Trendelenburg, lateral tilt, CPR release or powered function is listed, and backrest and leg angles are not published.

The case for the B-1 is what it costs to keep in service. With no motor, battery, control box or height mechanism listed, its moving parts come down to two crank drives, the section pivots, the castors and any rails supplied. That keeps the planned maintenance list short, removes the bed from portable appliance testing and leaves nothing that needs an electrical engineer. For a buyer equipping many bedspaces, one short spares list covers the whole fleet.

The datasheet itemises nothing else. Product photography shows moulded headboards and footboards with blue inset panels, full-length side rails with vertical bars and yellow latch fittings, sectioned deck panels, an under-deck mesh rack with VANRY BED frame lettering, folded crank handles at the foot end, a foot-end pedal marked in red and green, a small red hook on the near side and four castors. Each stays unconfirmed until the quotation lists it.

The B-1 measures 2200 × 1000 mm at a fixed height of 500 mm. Medigear.uk lists it for business buyers worldwide. Request the safe working load, section angles, spares list with prices and lead times, rail dimensions and the declaration of conformity from the seller before ordering.

 

The B-1 suits inpatient settings that need many beds for patients who sit up in bed but largely manage their own movement and transfers. Medical wards for mobile patients, short-stay and observation units, and recovery areas can equip entire bays with them, keeping one spare list and one maintenance routine across every bedspace.

Health systems in regions with limited engineering support gain most from its mechanical simplicity. With no electrics and two drive assemblies, estates staff can keep a fleet in service with hand tools and a shelf of parts, and the beds keep working through power cuts.

Community hospitals, mission and district hospitals and care homes can use it for residents who sit up for meals and conversation. The backrest supports sitting to eat and breathe, and the leg section helps hold the position so the patient does not slide toward the foot of the mattress.

Where the photographed rails are supplied, MHRA guidance governs their prescription, fitting and maintenance. Each patient needs an individual risk assessment covering the mattress in use, the bar spacing and the end gaps, and a confused patient who may climb over the rail needs particular care, because the fixed height sets the height of any fall.

The B-1 is a poor fit for dependent patients needing frequent bedside care or assisted transfers, for children and people of small stature until rail spacing is confirmed, for bariatric patients without a published load rating, for patients needing a low bed, and for care requiring head-down tilt.

Public procurement routes, including NHS frameworks and equivalent tenders elsewhere, ask for the declaration of conformity, the standard edition tested, and the device class. The conformity documentation those procurement routes require is issued by the manufacturer and provided by the seller.

 

Built to stay in service

Two crank drives, section pivots and castors make up the moving parts, so the B-1 keeps working year after year with simple routine care.

One bed for the whole fleet

Equip every bedspace with the same model and run one maintenance routine, one parts shelf and one training session across the ward.

Maintenance any estates team can handle

Every moving part is mechanical and accessible, so inspections and replacements are carried out on site with everyday tools.

Always ready, whatever the supply

Both movements work entirely by hand, so the bed is adjustable through power cuts and in any room.

Upright support for meals and breathing

The backrest lifts patients into a comfortable sitting position for eating, drinking and easier breathing.

Secure, comfortable sitting

The leg section holds patients in place when they sit up, keeping them comfortable and protecting their skin.

Full-length rails for reassurance

Full-length vertical-bar rails with bright latch fittings give patients a secure edge and staff a quick, clear release.

Storage built in

A mesh rack beneath the deck keeps patient belongings and supplies tidy and off the floor, as pictured.

Two-function manual bed

Backrest and leg section, each on its own hand crank.

Full-Fowler positioning

Seats the patient upright with the legs supported.

Backrest raise and lower

Smoothly lifts and lowers the upper body.

Leg section raise and lower

Supports the lower limbs and keeps the patient seated securely.

Folding foot-end cranks

Crank handles fold away at the foot end when not in use.

Fixed 500 mm height

A stable, consistent height across every bed in the fleet.

No electrical components

No motor, battery or mains lead, so the bed runs anywhere.

2200 mm overall length

A full adult-length frame.

1000 mm overall width

A practical width for doorways and corridors.

Blue-panel headboards and footboards

Moulded boards with blue inset panels and round hand-hold openings.

Full-length vertical-bar side rails

Continuous rails with yellow latch fittings for quick, clear operation.

Colour-coded foot-end pedal

A red and green marked pedal at the foot end beside the castor, as pictured.

Under-deck rack and four castors

A mesh storage rack beneath the deck and four castors for easy movement.

ISO 13485 certified manufacturer

Made by Hebei Vanry Medical Devices, which publishes ISO 13485:2016 quality management certification.

The B-1 is a two-crank manual bed whose strongest argument is how little it asks of an estates team. Its moving parts come down to two drives, the pivots, the castors and any rails, with no electrical testing and no actuators to replace. It sits patients up and raises their legs at a fixed 500 mm, which suits largely independent patients and asks more of staff where care is heavy. Load rating, angles, spares pricing and rail dimensions are unpublished. Medigear.uk lists the B-1 for business buyers worldwide and can arrange delivery, installation, commissioning, familiarisation and service cover. Request the safe working load, angles, costed spares list, rail dimensions, itemised supply, and declaration of conformity from the seller with the quotation.

 

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything buyers need to know about sourcing medical equipment through MediGear.

Running costs are limited to a short list of mechanical parts: two crank drive assemblies, the section pivots, the casters, and any rails. There is no electrical testing, no battery replacement and no actuator to fail. None of the parts has a published part number, price or lead time, so ask the seller for a costed spares list before committing a fleet. Rails, where fitted, need planned inspections with recorded results under MHRA guidance, and that labour belongs in the running budget.

Ask for the spares list with prices and lead times, the expected service life, and warranty terms set by the seller at quotation. Ask whether the same finish, panel colours and rail design will be available on reorder, because a mixed fleet complicates spares and training. Ask for the safe working load and section angles in writing. Finally, confirm exactly which photographed items ship as standard on every unit.

The datasheet confirms only the two functions and the overall dimensions. The photos show full-length vertical-bar side rails, an under-deck rack, folded crank handles, a red and green foot-end pedal, a small red hook, and four castors, but none of these is listed as standard supply. The pedal's colour marking suggests a braking or steering control, but its function is not stated, so ask what it does and whether it locks all four castors. The frame also carries VANRY BED lettering, so buyers who need unbranded equipment should ask about plain frames.

In the UK, MHRA guidance (Bed rails: management and safe use) and National Patient Safety Alert NatPSA/2023/010/MHRA require an individual risk assessment, correct fitting, and planned maintenance. MHRA checklists have set out 120 mm as the maximum gap between rail bars, 120 mm for any accessible opening between rail and mattress platform, and 60 mm between the end of the rail and the headboard, with the top of the rail at least 220 mm above the uncompressed mattress. For people of small stature, MHRA guidance points to BS EN 50637 and recommends gaps between rail bars of no more than 60 mm. Request the bar spacing, rail height and end gaps for the B-1, and measure them with the mattress you intend to use.

MHRA guidance reports that most falls from bed cause no harm or minor injuries, and that people who fell from beds without rails were significantly more likely to be injured. The same guidance records 18 deaths and 54 serious injuries linked to bed rails and associated equipment in the UK between 2018 and 2022, mostly from entrapment. Rails therefore help some patients and endanger others, which is why each prescription needs an individual assessment. Patients who are confused and likely to climb over a raised rail are the group where the balance most often tips against them.

No power supply, motor or handset is listed, so the bed needs no socket and sits outside portable appliance testing. In the UK, it remains work equipment under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998, which cover maintenance and staff training. LOLER applies only where lifting or lowering a load is a principal function. That judgement belongs to the duty holder's competent person, though with no height adjustment listed, the bed does not raise or lower the patient as a whole.

Staff work at one height for every task, and patients get in and out at one height. A 2014 study of nursing staff found that working with the mattress at hip height gave significantly more upright working time than knee or thigh height, so a 500 mm bed plus mattress asks more of staff where bedside care is heavy. For patients, the sitting height depends on the mattress, and shorter patients may not reach the floor with both feet. Ask whether the 500 mm figure is measured to the deck, then add the mattress thickness.

IEC 80601-2-52:2026 is the current international standard for adult medical beds, and it covers manual beds with or without adjustable functions. Some declarations still cite IEC 60601-2-52:2009 with its 2015 amendment, so ask which edition the B-1 was tested against. A bed of this kind is typically Class I under UK MDR 2002, or higher depending on use; confirm against the declaration of conformity at order. Great Britain accepts CE-marked devices under transitional arrangements. At the same time, the MHRA consults on indefinite recognition, and manufacturers outside the UK need a UK Responsible Person for the GB market. Conformity requirements differ by destination market, and the seller confirms what applies where the unit is going.

It does not suit dependent patients who need frequent bedside care or assisted transfers, because the working height cannot change. HSE guidance states that where patients need to be handled in bed, providing electric profiling beds must be considered under the Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992. It is built for adults, and it should not be allocated to bariatric patients until a safe working load is published. Patients at high risk of falling from bed, people of small stature where rail bar spacing is unconfirmed, and care needing head-down tilt all need different equipment.
