Electrically-powered platform pool lift

摘要

Various embodiments include a system that provides assisted access to a pool. The system includes a platform that includes a frame, a deck, and one or more handrails. The deck is attached to the frame and sized to receive a wheelchair. The one or more handrails are attached to at least one of the frame and the deck. The system includes an upright lifting component case. The frame of the platform is substantially perpendicular to the upright lifting component case. The system includes lifting components that are at least partially disposed in the upright lifting component case and attached to the platform. The lifting components are operable to vertically move the frame between a top and a bottom of the upright lifting component case. The system includes an electrical power source operable to provide electrical power to at least a portion of the lifting components.

1. A system, comprising:
a platform comprising:
a frame,a deck attached to the frame and sized to receive a wheelchair, andat least one handrail attached to at least one of the frame and the deck; an upright lifting component case, wherein the frame of the platform is substantially perpendicular to the upright lifting component case; lifting components at least partially disposed in the upright lifting component case and attached to the platform, the lifting components operable to vertically move the frame between a top and a bottom of the upright lifting component case; an electrical power source operable to provide electrical power to at least a portion of the lifting components; an electronic switch; a threaded rod attached to the electronic switch by a coupling nut; a slider guide that defines a height adjustment range, the electronic switch movable within the slider guide; and a stop adjustment knob attached to the threaded rod, the stop adjustment knob operable to rotate the threaded rod to move the electronic switch vertically within the slider guide; wherein the electronic switch sets at least one of a maximum elevated position height and a minimum lowered position height of the frame of the platform, wherein rotation of the threaded rod in a first direction causes the coupling nut attached to the electronic switch to travel up the threaded rod within the slider guide, and wherein rotation of the threaded rod in a second direction causes the coupling nut attached to the electronic switch to travel down the threaded rod within the slider guide.
