Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A patient transport apparatus including a base frame, an intermediate frame to provide support to a patient, an apparatus energy storage unit, an apparatus user interface, and an apparatus controller. The patient transport apparatus also includes a powered device having a module to perform a powered function, a device energy storage unit, a device user interface, a device interface adapted to cooperate with the apparatus interface to facilitate power transfer from the apparatus energy storage unit to the device energy storage unit, and a device controller. The device controller includes a power module configured to determine a charging level for the device energy storage unit based on a current state of the apparatus energy storage unit, and to draw power from the apparatus energy storage unit via the apparatus interface and across the device interface to charge the device energy storage unit at the charging level.
