20110289681 | CASTER ARRANGEMENT FOR A BARIATRIC LIFT DEVICE - A patient lift includes a base and a mast extending from the base. The patient lift also includes a first elongated leg having a first longitudinal axis extending from the base. A first caster assembly is mounted for pivotal movement relative to the first elongated leg about a first carriage axis. The first caster assembly includes a first caster truck and a plurality of first assembly casters mounted to the first caster truck. The patient lift also includes a second elongated leg having a second longitudinal axis extending from the base. A second caster assembly is mounted for pivotal movement relative to the second elongated leg about a second carriage axis. The second caster assembly includes a second caster truck and a plurality of second assembly casters mounted to the second caster truck. | 12-01-2011 |
20100162483 | MULTI-POSITION SUPPORT FOR A FOLDING PATIENT LIFT DEVICE - A stand assist device includes a base with legs that extend in a forward direction. The stand assist device also includes a mast assembly mounted on the base, the mast assembly including a mast. A boom is pivotally attached to the mast and an actuator is attached to the boom. The actuator is adapted to be driven in order to cause the boom to rotate relative to the mast. A knee pad is also attached relative to the mast assembly. The mast may be moved between a seated position wherein the mast extends upwardly from the base, and a folded position wherein the mast extends substantially in the forward direction. The base, mast assembly, and knee pad are configured so that the knee pad does not interfere with the base when the mast is moved into the folded position. | 07-01-2010 |
20100077548 | VISUAL INDICATOR ASSEMBLY FOR BRAKE FOR BED - A brake assembly includes a base member configured for attachment to the leg of a bed, a brake mounted to the base member, and a visual indicator assembly mounted in relation to the base member. The brake is operable to be selectively applied to prevent movement of the bed and the visual indicator assembly provides a visual indicia of when the brake is one of applied and released. | 04-01-2010 |
20100064442 | PATIENT LOAD SUPPORT FOR USE WITH ELONGATE BEDS - A patient load support for use with elongate beds comprises a frame, and a grip supported relative to the frame. The grip is supported for longitudinal movement, and independent lateral movement. | 03-18-2010 |
20090293197 | WIDTH ADJUSTMENT ACCESSORY FOR USE WITH BEDS - This invention relates to a bed including a frame with a substantially planar frame support surface. The bed also includes a width adjustment accessory with a mounting member and an extension member, the extension member providing a substantially planar extended support surface. The mounting member is configured to be attached relative to the frame so that the extended support surface is substantially planar with the frame support surface. | 12-03-2009 |
20090165204 | MULTI-POSITION SUPPORT FOR A FOLDING PATIENT LIFT DEVICE - A patient lift has a base, a mast assembly mounted on the base at the lower end, a boom pivotally mounted at one end on the mast assembly. An actuator is mounted on the boom and configured to move between a retracted position and an extended position to pivot the boom relative to the mast assembly between a lowered position and a raised position. A support member includes a sling attachment pivotally mounted on the outer end of the boom. A locking mechanism is configured to fix the support member relative to the boom when the locking mechanism is engaged and further configured to allow pivotal movement of the support member relative to the boom when the locking mechanism is released. | 07-02-2009 |
20090165203 | FOLDING PATIENT LIFT DEVICE - A patient lift has a base extending in a forward direction, and a mast mounted relative to the base. The mast includes a hinge configured to allow the mast to be pivoted relative to the base between an upright operative position and a folded position, wherein when the mast is in the folded position the mast is substantially parallel to the base and extends in the forward direction. A latch mechanism is configured to hold the mast in the folded position when the latch mechanism is locked, and to allow the mast to be returned to the upright operative position when the latch mechanism is released. The latch mechanism is configured to automatically lock when the mast is moved to the folded position. | 07-02-2009 |
