1. A mounting apparatus for moveably securing equipment to a patient transport system, the mounting apparatus comprising:
a first arm having a proximal end defining an elongate opening, a distal end and a longitudinal axis, and configured to support equipment; and
a clamping system attachable to the patient transport system and configured to receive the proximal end of the first arm for removeably attaching the first arm to the patient transport system and for allowing a rotation of the first arm relative to the patient transport system between an upright position and a reclined position, the clamping system comprising:
a body having:
a foot portion configured to be attached to the patient transport system,
a cover portion arranged to be removeably attached to the foot portion, the cover portion defining a first opening and a second opening which overlays over the elongate opening of the first arm, the first opening and the second opening being spaced apart from one another, and
a slot for receiving the proximal end of the first arm, the slot disposed between the foot and cover portions;
a pin, insertable through the body and the proximal end of the first arm; and
a removable pivot pin configured to extend through the elongate opening of the first arm and transverse to the pin when assembled, the removable pin being selectively received in one of the first opening to lock the first arm in the upright position, and the second opening to lock the first arm in the reclined position.
