Abstract: A traveling lift comprises a substantially T-shaped leg unit 4 provided with freely rollable casters 11, 21, 31, a tubular support post 5 set up on the leg unit 4, and an inner post 6 inserted in the support post 5 and provided with a suspension arm 7 at a front portion thereof. The suspension arm 7 is positioned above the front leg 3 so as to extend substantially in parallel therewith. The inner post 6 is formed movably in the vertical direction in the support post 5 by a driving means. This enables a physically handicapped person to be lifted and lowered easily even by a small force, the lift as a whole to be folded to small dimensions lightly and simply, and the folded lift to be transported by car with ease.
