Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0452072A2] Mobile hoist for lifting, transporting and lowering patients or other subjects with impaired mobility includes a wheeled chassis (10) mounting a rigid vertical mast (16) at one end having a slider formation (22) guided for vertical movement thereof in a controlled self-braking manner by jacking mechanism actuated by a crank handle (42). A cantilever arm or jib (20) extends from said formation cranked both in the vertical aspect so that it can reach over the side of e.g. a bath and in plan somewhat to one side of the centre line of the hoist, its outer end carrying a seat support ring (26). A seat (28) having an open centre so that it can be used for toilet purposes is rotatable on the ring relative to the remainder of the hoist so that a subject seated thereon can be turned to face at least to the front or rear of the hoist. <IMAGE>
