More Information
Summary:An apparatus is provided for lowering and raising a person onto and up from a seated position particularly in conjunction with a commercial or residential commode. The apparatus is suitable as an attachable adaptation to existing commercial or residential commodes. The apparatus is attached directly to such a standard commode by using a pair of studs disposed to fit into holes through the commode that are used to attach commode seats. These studs are securely attached to the commode. Air pressure delivered from a remote source extends hydraulic cylinders in a manner to provide a user with the ability to be raised to a comfortable dismount position from a seat or to be reclined to a comfortable seated position on a commode. The individual will be moved down or up to a comfortable semi-standing position because a commode seat attached to the apparatus is disposed to be at an angled position to facilitate a user mounting or dismounting the apparatus.
