Abstract
A portable assistive lift comprising a vertical member comprising a handle bar and a central wheel controlled by the handle bar disposed at the top and bottom extremities thereof respectively, a pair of left and right support members, each of which comprising a horizontal top rod extending from the vertical member, a bottom rod comprising a side wheel receptacle for receiving a side wheel therewithin disposed at a distal extremity thereof and a connecting rod connecting the free and proximal extremities of the top and bottom rods respectively whereby, the vertical member and the top, bottom and the connecting rods from a U-shaped structure as viewed from top and a hook stand comprising a plurality of hooks about which a sling is coupled thereto wherein, the hook stand is adapted to be elevated and lowered.
Claims20
A portable assistive lift comprising:
- (a) a vertical member comprising:
- (i) a vertical column;
- (ii) a handle bar disposed atop the vertical column;
- and
- (iii) a central wheel disposed at a bottom end of the vertical column, with swiveling of the central wheel facilitated by swiveling of the handle;
- (b) a pair of left and right support members, each of which comprising:
- (i) an elongate, horizontal top rod extending from the vertical column;
- (ii) an elongate rod disposed below the top rod, a bottom rod being elevated above ground and declines from distal end to its proximal;
- (iii) a side wheel disposed at a distal extremity of the bottom rod whereby, the lift is maneuvered about the central and side wheels;
- and
- (iv) a connecting rod connecting the extremities of the top and bottom rods respectively whereby, the vertical member, the top, the bottom and the connecting rods, as viewed from above, form U-shaped structure;
- and
- (c) a hook stand connected to the vertical member, the hook stand comprising a plurality of hooks about which a sling is coupled thereto, the hook stand being elevatable and lowerable.
A portable assistive lift comprising:
- (a) a vertical member comprising:
- (i) a vertical column;
- (ii) a handle bar disposed atop the vertical column;
- and
- (iii) a central cart wheel disposed at a bottom end of the vertical column, swiveling of the central wheel facilitated by swiveling of the handle;
- (b) a pair of left and right support members, each of which comprising:
- (i) an elongate, horizontal top rod extending from the vertical column;
- (ii) an elongate, bottom rod disposed below the top rod, the bottom rod being elevated above ground, the bottom rod, as viewed from above, is disposed in a perpendicular orientation with respect to the top rod albeit in a different geometrical plane;
- (iii) a side cart wheel disposed at a distal extremity of the bottom rod whereby, the lift is maneuvered about the central and side wheels;
- and
- (iv) a connecting rod connecting the top and bottom rods respectively whereby, the vertical member and the top, bottom and the connecting rods, as viewed from above, form U-shaped structure;
- (c) a hook stand comprising a plurality of hooks about which a sling is coupled thereto;
- (d) an elongate stand member hingedly extending from the vertical column such that, the stand member, as viewed from above, bifurcates the right and left support members, a distal free end of the stand rod adapted to receive the hook stand therewithin;
- and
- (e) an obliquely-positioned, elongate telescopic actuator hingedly secured at a bottom of the vertical column;
- the actuator for elevating and lowering the hook stand;
- and
- an electronic user terminal for controlling an extension and retraction of the actuator so as to control an ascent and descent of the hook stand respectively.
