Patent number: 11918526Abstract: A sheet assembly includes a sheet having an edge and a pocket extending longitudinally along the edge. A plurality of loops are arranged along the edge and extend from openings formed in the pocket of the sheet. An adjustment webbing is slidably positioned within the pocket. At least a portion of each loop of the plurality of loops is anchored to the adjustment webbing such that sliding the adjustment webbing along the pocket pulls the plurality of loops into the pocket and reduces an exposed length of the plurality of loops.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: LIKO Research & Development ABInventors: Jennifer Domina Slavin, Michael Buccieri, Alejandro Noe Conejo Castaño, Jonathan D. Turner, Elin Dovervik

Publication number: 20230301858Abstract: A method of rotating a subject includes arranging a lifting aid underneath the subject such that a midline of the subject is off center from a centerline of the lifting aid in a direction opposite of the rotation direction. The lifting aid includes a first loop extending in the rotation direction and a second loop extending in the opposite direction. The method further includes connecting the loops to a sling bar coupled to an overhead lift and directing the overhead lift to raise, where the subject rotates towards the direction of rotation due to the off center location of the subject. The method further includes repositioning the subject when the subject has rotated to a lateral recumbent position and directing the overhead lift to lower, thereby causing the subject to continue rotating.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 5, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: LIKO RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT ABInventors: Neal Wiggermann, Michael Buccieri, Alejandro Noe Conejo Castaño, Morgan Dreyer, Jie Zhou, Lori Ann Zapfe

Patent number: 11767198Abstract: Sling bars, lift systems, and methods of attaching a subject sling to a sling bar are disclosed. A sling bar includes a bar extending in a longitudinal direction, a protrusion extending from an upper part of the bar, a sling attachment portion extending to define a receiving aperture, a terminus of the sling attachment portion facing the protrusion, defining an opening into the receiving aperture, the protrusion defining an undercut portion of the receiving aperture, a retention latch pivotally coupled to the protrusion and defining an engagement face that selectively interfaces with a stop surface at the terminus in a closed position to cover the opening, the retention latch being constrained to pivot to an open position whereby the retention latch ceases to interface with the stop surface at the terminus, and a biasing mechanism coupled to the retention latch to force the retention latch toward the closed position.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2021Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: LIKO Research & Development ABInventors: Alejandro Noe Conejo Castaño, Christian H. Reinke, Todd P. O'Neal, Nishita Vanita Shashikant, Scott M. Corbin, Katie Osborne, James Walke, Jeffrey Scott Jelinek, Marcus Linde
