GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:Flaschenkreuz
English translation:four-hook top / 4-hook top

Medical - Medical: Instruments / Hospital Care of Newborns
German term or phrase: Flaschenkreuz
"Das Shuttlesystem für den individuellen neonatologischen Transport im Krankenhaus
Komplettsystem bestehend aus Grundsystem mit einer Ablage über dem Fahrgestell 650 x 450 mit vorder- und rückseitiger Randleiste, höhenverstellbarem Flaschenkreuz und zwei waagerechten Geräteschienen."

From a text about a sort of shuttle transfer system for newborns. I can't find a credible translation anywhere for "Flaschenkreuz". From Google image searching, it appears to be an X-shaped device with hooks for hanging bottles on. Here's an example:

What you'd call something like that in English though, I really wouldn't have a clue. TIA for your help.

Tricky one, but in the end I think "four-hook top" was the way to go here, as the Google image searches for the respective terms seemed to match up pretty well. Many thanks Harald, but thanks also to Susanne for a very plausible suggestion. Appreciate everyone's assistance.
