Abstract: The invention relates to a handling system for lifting or moving a person from a first position to another, such as from a bed to a chair. The system includes a bottom part being vertically fixed, a lifting arm being guided by the bottom part allowing the lifting arm to at least be vertically adjustable, a support part for fixating and supporting the person during the lifting and moving, and a support connection for the support part. The support connection is connected to drive means, for winding and unwinding the support connection, via the lifting arm, and the drive means being part of the bottom part. The invention also relates to a weighting system and a method for lifting or moving a person.
Abstract: A handling system for supporting a person, preferably a disabled person, where the handling system facilitates changes of the angular position of the person supported by the support device, the handling system including at least two support connection systems each having at least one support connection, where the invention further relates to a method for arranging a supported person.
Abstract: A handling system for lifting or moving a person from a first position to another, including a bottom part having a substantially vertical guiding part, and a guided part being guided by the vertical guiding part allowing a lifting arm to be at least vertically adjustable, the system further including a support part for fixating and supporting the person during the lifting or moving, and a support connection connected to drive means, for winding or unwinding the support connection, and the support part during the lifting or moving, where the at least vertically adjustable lifting arm is actuated by actuator means during the at least vertical adjusting of the lifting arm.
Abstract: The invention relates to a handling system for lifting and/or moving a person from a first position to another. The system includes a frame having a base frame and a lifting frame being part of a lifting device for the person. The system also includes at least three wheels positioned in different parts of the base frame and allowing the handling system to be moved over a surface from said first position to another, and at least one user interface allowing the person or another person to control the handling system. Further, the system includes at least one of the wheels being directional controllable from the at least one user interface and each of the wheels being mounted pivotally around a vertical axle of the wheels. The invention also relates to a user interface and a method of handling a person.
