A stair chair for use in transporting a patient in a seated position along stairs comprising a base, an upright coupled to the base, and a track assembly extending from the base for traversing stairs. A seat section is operatively attached to the upright and arranged for movement relative to the base between a plurality of vertical configurations including a first vertical configuration where the seat section is spaced from the base at a first distance for supporting the patient in the seated position, and a second vertical configuration where the seat section is spaced from the base at a second distance greater than the first distance. A lift mechanism is interposed between the base and the seat section to move the seat section between the plurality of vertical configurations. The lift mechanism moves the seat section to facilitate transitioning the patient to a standing position from the seated position.

A modular seat apparatus includes a base cushion and a back cushion that includes a plurality of segments defining a longitudinal length of the back cushion. The back cushion is pivotably coupled to the base cushion such that the back cushion is oriented at an angle relative to the base cushion. The plurality of segments is configured to translate in response to the back cushion pivoting relative to the base cushion such that the longitudinal length of the back cushion decreases as the angle increases and the longitudinal length of the back cushion increases as the angle decreases.

A therapy seat cushion, method of making the cushion and method of using the cushion. The cushion has a planar array of at least two sets of alternatively inflatable and deflatable cells controlled by an inflation control system, and at least one non-inflatable offloading cushioning cell interspersed amongst the inflatable cells. The non-inflatable offloading cushioning cell configured and arranged to align with a pressure sore or an area prone to development of a pressure sore on an individual.

The water-dispensing system with wheelchair comprises a water generation system, a condensate pump, a condensate filter, a power circuit, a water storage reservoir, a housing, a flexible tubing, and a wheelchair. The wheelchair further comprises a backrest and a bench. The housing contains the water generation system, the condensate pump, the condensate filter, the power circuit, the water storage reservoir, and the flexible tubing. The water generation system, the condensate pump, the condensate filter, and the flexible tubing are fluidically connected. The housing mounts on the wheelchair. The water generation system and the condensate pump electrically connect to the power circuit. The water generation system and the condensate pump receive electric energy from the power circuit.

Provided is a moving vehicle which enables a user to easily recognize that the moving vehicle is stopped due to the user's own clothing or the like being determined as an object, thereby enabling the user to cancel the stopped state and return to a moving state. A moving vehicle on which a person rides and which stops moving if the distance to an object is equal to or less than a first predetermined value, said moving vehicle comprising: a sensor (124) for detecting the distance; a determiner (125) for determining, if the distance is equal to or less than a second predetermined value smaller than the first predetermined value, a state in which the field of view of the sensor (124) is blocked due to the clothing covering the sensor (124); and a notifier (128) that, if said state is determined by the determiner (125), issues a notification.
