Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0096208A2] The framework (1) of the bath lift consists of a mounting frame (5), for example for wall mounting, and, connected to this in an articulated manner, a pivoting frame (6). The transport device (2), for example a vertically guided slide (15) with, attached to it, a device (23) for supporting a person, and the drive machine (21) used for raising and lowering it are arranged on the pivoting frame (6). For load compensation, a pneumatic spring arrangement (22) is provided, which supports the slide (15) on the pivoting frame (6). In this way, only a fraction of the otherwise necessary drive force and a correspondingly smaller drive machine are needed. For the swivel movement, articulations (12) suffice which can be arranged at a vertical spacing independent of the slide height, and exceeding the latter, as a result of which bearing and frictional forces are reduced. <IMAGE>
