Abstract: There is presented an equipment for raising of an associated lying person, comprising a seat, a primary leg, a secondary leg being secondary leg being rotatably connected to the seat and a backrest, wherein the equipment is arranged to be passed from a first configuration to a second configuration by rotation of the secondary leg around a rotation axis, and wherein the equipment is arranged so that it enables placement of the equipment between the associated lying person and a supporting surface while the bottom of the associated lying person is in contact with the supporting surface upon which the associated lying person is lying and subsequently raising the associated lying person by passing the equipment from the first configuration to the secondary configuration by rotation of the secondary leg. In a particular embodiment, the equipment is arranged for being reversibly assembled and disassembled without using tools.

Abstract: Equipment for raising of a lying person. The equipment comprises: a seat (1), a backrest (2), which from a first position can be passed to a second position behind the back of the person, and a chassis (3) with an upper end to which the seat is connected and a lowermost end adapted to rest on a surface such as a floor. The equipment is to be placed on the surface positioned to the person such that the seat is placed under the behind of the person and from this first position the equipment with the person can be passed to a second position in which the chassis with its lower end rests on the surface such that the seat and backrest is raised relative to the surface e.g. to take a chair-like posture or a catapult position i.e. an upright position in which the person will be assisted to a standing position.

Abstract: A linear actuator includes a spindle, a main nut, and a safety nut which cooperates with the main nut. The flank of the safety nut closest to the load supported by the spindle is made steep, i.e., forms an acute angle of between about 20 to 30 degrees with its longitudinal axis, thereby providing a great frictional force by engagement with the threads of the spindle in the event that the main nut fails. The great frictional force is brought about because the threads of the spindle, exclusively with the outer edge, become in linear engagement with the steep flank on the safety nut.

Abstract: A linear actuator of the type whose function is based on a spindle (3) and a main nut (4), is provided with a safety nut (7) in connection with the main nut. The flank (9) of the safety nut closest to the load is made steep, i.e. forms an acute angle with its longitudinal axis, thereby providing a great frictional force by engagement with the threads of the spindle in the event that the main nut fails. The great frictional force is brought about in that the threads of the spindle, exclusively with the outer edge, get into linear engagement with the steep flank on the safety nut.
