Abstract

A hoist is provided enabling people, especially elderly people and invalids, to enter and leave baths, beds and the like conveniently. The hoist comprises a passenger seat of hammock or bucket form which can be raised and lowered in a controlled manner by an electric motor via a cable system between the motor and the seat and including a seat hanger. The motor is located in a track system and the seat can be provided with horizontal movements in mutually right-angled directions, the track system being adapted for support by the ceiling of building. An insulated remote-control is preferably provided for the electric motor. <IMAGE>

Description

Our design of this hoist is made up two primary tracks on the ceiling to give forward and backward movement.
The secondary track is to give side movement as seen on plans. I then put a steel plate on the track wheels for side movement and to hold motor and lifting basket for passengers.
A 24 volt electrical motor with all cut-outs, low speed lifting and height trip. The hoist is fitted with a fully insulated control unit so that it can easily be operated by one person whilst putting a patient into either a bath, pool or bed. Please see enclosed.
