Abstract: A chair, includes a seat structure and a backrest structure arranged pivotally to the seat structure. An armrest is arranged pivotally to the backrest structure through a pivotal connection, and a link mechanism is journalled to the structures of the seat and the backrest, respectively, the link mechanism actuating and controlling the armrest to maintain its pivotal orientation in any pivotal position of the backrest relative to the seat. The armrest is adjustable in the length direction of the backrest through the pivotal connection which is arranged displaceable on the backrest structure, and the pivotal orientation of the armrest is controlled via a sliding engagement between a lever arm, adjoining the armrest at an angle thereto, and an actuator link included in the link mechanism and displaceable thereby with respect to the backrest so as to extend substantially in the length direction of the backrest in all its positions of displacement.

Abstract: A roll coach for moving patients to and from a hospital bed is disclosed. It comprises a frame, a movable bunk mounted on said frame, a lifting mechanism connecting the bunk with the frame and operative to move the bunk in a vertical direction, and a tilting mechanism operative to tilt the bunk such as to bring the side of the bunk in contact with the bed surface.

Abstract: A roll coach for moving patients to and from a hospital bed is disclosed. It comprises a frame (4, 6, 8) a movable bunk (30) mounted on said frame (4, 6, 8), a lifting mechanism (14, 18, 20, 22, 24) connecting the bunk (30) with the frame and operative to move the bunk in a vertical direction, and a tilting mechanism (28, 32, 34) operative to tilt the bunk (30) such as to bring the side of the bunk in contact with the bed surface essentially in the middle of the bed. There is also disclosed a drag sheet and a method of moving a patient to and from a hospital bed by using a moveable bunk.
