Abstract

The invention relates to a platform lifting system for transporting a person or an object between at least a ground level and a second level, said platform lifting system (1) comprises a platform (15), a gate (16), and lifting means (84) to move the platform at least between the ground level and the second level, and a barrier arrangement (17). The barrier arrangement comprises a safety bar and a mechanical raising mechanism (20) to move the safety bar between a raised position, preventing persons from passing through the gate, and a lowered position, allowing persons to pass through the gate. The mechanical raising mechanism comprises an activation plate (14'). The activation plate engages a floor (22), or a carrier plate (23), when the platform approaches the ground level, and the safety bar is released and moves to the lowered position. The activation plate does not engage the floor, or the carrier plate, when the platform is away from the ground level, and the safety bar is placed in the raised position.

Abstract

The invention relates to a lifting system (1) for a stairway, wherein said lifting system can take at least two positions: a stairway position and a platform lift position. The lifting system is provided with a rotatable ramp (9) for enabling a walking-impaired person to enter or exit the lifting system, when the lifting system is in a platform lift position, said ramp being rotatable mounted along at least a part of an outermost edge of the step (2,3). Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of operating a lifting system, wherein the operation transforms the lifting system from a stairway position to a platform lift position to enabling a walking-impaired person and/or an aid for a walking-impaired person to get from a lower level to an upper level or to get from an upper level to a lower level. Moreover, the invention relates to a computer program.

Abstract

Equipment for raising of a lying person. The equipment comprises: a seat (1), a backrest (2), which from a first position can be passed to a second position behind the back of the person, and a chassis (3) with an upper end to which the seat is connected and a lowermost end adapted to rest on a surface such as a floor. The equipment is to be placed on the surface positioned to the person such that the seat is placed under the behind of the person and from this first position the equipment with the person can be passed to a second position in which the chassis with its lower end rests on the surface such that the seat and backrest is raised relative to the surface e.g. to take a chair-like posture or a catapult position i.e. an upright position in which the person will be assisted to a standing position.
