Disclosed is a toilet chair (1) comprising a chair back (2) including a head part (3) and a bottom part (4) and a seat (5) comprising a front part (6) and a rear part (8), wherein the seat (5) further comprises a toilet opening (7) through which a user may go to the toilet. The bottom part (4) and the rear part (8) are arranged next to each other and the bottom part (4) is arranged to be displaceable outwards in a direction towards the front of the chair (1) and the rear part (8) is arranged to be displaceable upwards in a direction towards the front of the chair (1). Methods for aiding a person in getting undressed or dressed by means of a toilet chair (1) and use of a toilet chair (1) is also disclosed.

In a standing-up motion assist system for assisting a care receiving person, a care belt includes a first holder that holds a neck part or a back part of the care receiving person, a second holder that holds a lumbar part of the care receiving person, a third holder that connects the first holder and the second holder and holds armpits of the care receiving person, a second connector located at a chest of the care receiving person, and a first connector that connects the first holder and the second holder. A pulling mechanism is connected to the second connector and pulls the second connector. A controller controls the pulling mechanism so as to pull the second connector in a forward and upward direction with reference to the care receiving person, and, thereafter, pull the second connector in a backward and upward direction with reference to the care receiving person.

A convertible bed/wheelchair apparatus is disclosed to include a first support frame; a second support frame; a first mattress frame segment; a second mattress frame segment; and a third mattress frame segment movably connected to one another; a first motor, a third motor, and a fourth motor operable to cause the first mattress support segment to turn into a footrest, and the second mattress frame segment to move on top of second supporting frame, and the third mattress frame segment to be erected vertically to become a head rest section of a wheelchair.

A mobile object is configured so as to be capable of moving front and rear bases 10,30 object to each other in order to make a wheel base provided between the front wheels 12 and the rear wheels 32 expandable and contractible. The front base 10 moves so as to be expand and contract the tread width between the front wheels 12 in association with the expansion and the contraction of the wheel base achieved. The seating part 41 is configured so as to turn forward in association with the relative movement of the front and rear bases 10,30 in order to contract the wheel base and the tread width. The seating part 41 is configured so as to turn backward in association with the relative movement of the front and rear bases 10,30 in order to expand the wheel base and the tread width.

An assisting device provide with: a movable base on which a care receiver rides; a raising and lowering member supported on the base to be movable in an up-down direction; a raising and lowering drive section configured to drive the raising and lowering member up and down; an oscillating member supported on the raising and lowering member to be capable of oscillating; an oscillating drive section configured to drive the oscillating of the oscillating member; a holding member supported on the oscillating member to be freely tiltable, and configured to hold an upper body of the care receiver; a first handle provided on the oscillating member; and a second handle provided on the holding member, and configured to tilt together with the holding member. Accordingly, practicality is improved with regard to safe moving operation of the assisting device and safe free tilting of the holding member.

A seat with a base, an actuator, at least one front boom, at least one rear boom, a seat platform, and a back platform. The actuator is circularly rotatably connected to each of the at least one front boom, the at least one rear boom, the seat platform, and the back platform. The base is circularly rotatably connected to each of the at least one front boom and the at least one rear boom.

A conveyance to carry humans, such as a wheelchair, is described having levers on each side of the wheelchair that are manually moved forward and backward to propel the conveyance. The user is able to shift into forward, reverse or neutral, brake, and change mechanical advantage (gear ratio), all this without removing the user's hands from the drive levers.

A care bed includes a bed body provided with a groove and a wheelchair disposed in the groove. The wheelchair includes: a wheelchair support sequentially provided with a wheelchair back plate, a seat plate, a leg plate and a foot plate, and the seat plate is fixed to the wheelchair support; a double-traction lifting regulator disposed below a connection position between the wheelchair back plate and the seat plate; a locking member disposed on the double-traction lifting regulator; a first traction member connected to the locking member; and a second traction member connected to the locking member. When the wheelchair is combined with the bed body, the second traction member controls the locking member to be loosened; and when the wheelchair is separated from the bed body, the second traction member controls the locking member to be locked.
