Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0634160A1] On the underside of a lifting plate (24) of a bath lift there is a valve housing (40) comprising an inlet valve (48) and an outlet valve (50). The two valves (48, 50) are selectively actuated by a joint rocker (76) which in turn is kept in the neutral position by the valve tappets of the two valves when not actuated. Pressure upon one end of the rocker (76) opens the inlet valve, so that the lifting plate (24) of the lift moves upwards. When the rocker (76) is released, the inlet valve (48) closes and when the other end of the rocker (76) is actuated, the outlet valve opens, so that water flows out from the lifting tube of the lift through an outlet opening (68) in the valve housing (42). <IMAGE>
