(54)	Device for raising and moving people having functional limitations of the lower limbs

(57) A device for raising and moving people having functional limitations of the lower limbs comprises a fixed framework (7, 8) borne by a base (2) provided with wheels (5, 6) and a first support element (12) for supporting a part of the body of the user, borne by a moveable structure (11) which is articulated (b) to the fixed framework (7, 8). The device (1) further comprises actuator means (13) which can be selectively actuated by a user to cause displacement of the moveable structure (11) between a reclined position and a raised position. Mounted in a moveable manner on the moveable structure (11) is a second support element (15) for supporting a part of the body of the user. The second support element (15) is displaceable between an inoperative position and at least one operative position, in the latter the second support element (15) providing a support for a region of the back of the user even with the moveable structure (11) in the reclined position.
