    (54) Patient lifting device


    (57) A patient lifting device shows an upper column part (16) which is displaceable relative to a lower column part (14) by means of a jack (18) driven from a chargeable battery (38) via an electric motor (20). A lifting platform (24) is arranged on a carriage (26) which is suspended in the one end of a chain (30) running over a wheel (32) journalled in the upper column part (16) and with its other end (34) is anchored to the lower column part (14). By this the lifting height of the platform (24) becomes twice as large as the stroke of the jack (18). A gas spring (36) is arranged in parallel with the jack (18) to unload the force which acts on the jack (18) on raising and lowering of a patient.
