Standup with Manual Lift

This device allows the user to assume and maintain an upright position, and to move around indoors aided by a carer. The lift effort is done by the user who pushes with the upper limbs which grip solidly onto the lateral handles and onto the service tray. As an alternative the user is lifted and positioned by a carer. After the lift the user can stabilize the upright position by using the side lever which lowers the padded back support. The service tray is provided with several adjustment possibilities by sliding, in height and depth. The aid is provided with four casters which allow it to move around by hand push. The adjustment of the height of the main structure, directly involving the setting of the knee supports and the service tray, is mechanically served by a gas-spring controlled by a lever attached onto the lateral support. The whole system of adjustments allows to better suit the whole aid accordingly to the anthropometric characteristics of the user. For further information, please refer to the section on options, accessories and adjustments.

END USER
Any user who is capable of transferring unaided from the wheelchair onto the standing frame, and to reach the upright position by his own, can use this simple standing frame. It will be necessary some help for closing the buttocks support (only a few users are capable of doing this by themselves). If a valid and continuous aid is provided, the standing frame can be also used by those who do not have much strength and do not use it many times during the day.
