Zusammenfassung:A neonatal incubator system (1) includes an enclosure (10) having a series of side panels (18) that create a chamber (14) that receives an infant. At least one of the side panels (18) includes a porthole (15) having a porthole door (26) that is movable between open and closed positions. A rotary latch (46) is positioned to engage the porthole door (26) to retain the porthole door (26) in the closed position when the rotary latch (46) is in a latched position. The rotary latch (46) is designed such movement of the rotary latch (46) to an unlatched position creates physical separation between the porthole door (26) and a sealing gasket (38) or bumpers located between the porthole door (26) and the side panel (18). The rotary latch (46) is designed such that a control knob (70) can be moved to a cleaning position in which the control knob (70) is spaced from the side panel (18) to expose a liquid gutter (66) that is formed as part of a stationary base (50).
