Patient transfer system
Disclosed is a patient transfer system for transferring a user between a bed and a purposefully designed mobile sitting device that is aligned and berthed alongside the bed, wherein, the bed is adaptable to a seated arrangement and includes an interleaf structure of cushions and platforms, the platform including: a padding, a rail, restricted path, or track, and means for transferring the padding in a direction parallel to the ground away or towards the bed; the bed further includes means to raise or lower the top of the cushions or the padding; and the mobile sitting device includes a receiving rail, restricted path or track to receive the padding.
BATHTUB LIFT
A bathtub lift (1) includes a floor plate (2), a seat plate (3) adjustable to vary the distance between the seat plate (3) and the floor plate (2), and a back plate (4) detachably arranged on the seat plate (3). The back plate (4) supports an adjustment device (5) driven by a drive (6) for adjusting the distance between the floor plate and the seat plate. A locking device (7) is configured to release the back plate (4). The back plate (4) is not arranged on the surface (8) of the seat plate (3) facing away from the floor plate (2), and a detaching of the floor plate (4) is only made possible in a floor-plate-side end position of the seat plate (3).
Rotatable bath seat with linear actuator
Disclosed is a movable bath seat device employing a linear actuator to assist an individual with decreased mobility in and out of a bathtub. The linear actuator employs a direct current motor with limit switches to move the seat between positions. The device permits an individual to take a position on the seat outside the bathtub and, by use of the actuator, move their torso to a position inside the bath tub side walls. The seat can then rotate, allowing an individual to lift their legs into the bathtub at their convenience. In a preferred embodiment, the cushion on the rotating seat assembly is constructed of a slip resistant padding comprised of medical grade, closed cell molded polyurethane padding that does not absorb water.
Rotating bath lift
Disclosed is a bath lift with a rotating seat assembly to assist an individual with decreased mobility in and out of a bathtub. The rotating seat includes an assembly that can be raised or lowered using a DC powered linear actuator. The linear actuator will also move a backrest from an upright position to a reclined position. A controller includes logic to prevent operation should the batteries have insufficient power to raise the seat assembly. Slip resistant padding is comprised of medical-grade, closed cell, molded polyurethane padding that does not absorb water and reduces the risk of skin tears.
Device for supporting the ability of a person with restricted mobility to move
A device (1) that supports the mobility of a person with restricted mobility comprises a trolley (3) and a mast (4) attached to the trolley (3). The mast (4) comprises a backrest (6) and armrests (5) for receiving the person.
Apparatus for transporting a patient
An apparatus for transporting a patient. The apparatus includes a supporting portion to grasp part of the body of a patient. A footboard unit is provided upon which the patient is able to stand when supported by the supporting portion, the footboard unit movable along a floor by movable means. A frame is connected between the footboard unit and the supporting portion. The apparatus is configured so that the footboard unit is able to move in proximity to a bed upon which the patient is lying, whereat the supporting portion can grasp the part of the body of the patient, wherein the frame and the supporting portion are able to support the patient in transitioning from a lying position on the bed to a standing position adjacent the bed as the footboard unit is moved relative to the bed.
Pneumatic chair jack
A multi-cell inflatable jack includes a plurality of jack elements. Each of the plurality of jack elements includes a body having a predetermined perimeter shape and defining a perimeter chamber and a central chamber. A valve is coupled to the body and configured to provide air flow to one of the perimeter chamber or the central chamber. A plurality of flow control stringers are located between the first chamber portion and the second chamber portion and are configured to control an air flow rate into each of the perimeter chamber and the central chamber. At least one fastener is formed on the body and configured to attach the jack element to at least one additional jack element in a multi-cell stack.

FOLDABLE AND DISPLACEABLE BATHING CHAIR STRUCTURE
A foldable and displaceable bathing chair structure comprises a seat unit and a seat supporting unit. The seat unit comprises a movable cushion and at least two sliding components. Each sliding component comprises at least one roller and a seat positioning piece. The seat supporting unit comprises four folding units, four chair legs, two side pipe bodies and two cushion pipe bodies. Each folding unit comprises a first connecting part connected with the chair leg, a second connecting part connected with the side pipe body and a third connecting part connected with the cushion pipe body. Each cushion pipe body includes at least one seat positioning hole, and each side pipe body includes a folding switch component. The roller of each sliding component drives the movable cushion to move thereon. The folding switch components enable the chair legs to be displaced relative to the cushion pipe bodies.
Novel Nursing Bed and Chair System
The utility model discloses a novel nursing bed and chair system. The system includes a bed frame. The bed frame is provided with a backrest portion, a footrest portion and a cushion portion. The backrest portion and the footrest portion are connected to the cushion portion in a vertically rotatable manner, respectively. One end of the footrest portion, remote from the cushion portion, is provided with a foot pad portion. The foot pad portion is rotatably connected to the footrest portion. The system further includes a backrest push rod and a footrest push rod with outer housings being fixed to the bed frame. An actuator of the backrest push rod is fixedly connected to the back of the backrest portion. The outer housing of the footrest push rod is fixed to the bed frame, and an actuator of the footrest push rod is connected to a transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism includes a transmission frame and an L-shaped support frame. One end of the transmission frame is rotatably connected to the bed frame, and the other end is rotatably connected to one end of the L-shaped support frame. The other end of the L-shaped support frame is connected to one end of the foot pad portion remote from the footrest portion. The actuator of the footrest push rod is fixedly connected to the transmission frame. By adopting the utility model, a higher degree of automation can be achieved.
