PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device for lifting a person with which the risk of an insufficient grip can be eliminated. SOLUTION: The device for lifting a person comprises a pair of cups 1, 2 for gripping a person by applying pressure force on opposite sides of the person's thorax 12 and a moving means for moving the cups towards each other by the operation of the person's weight. The cups 1, 2 are tiltably mounted on the moving means. Each cup 1, 2 has tilt axes A, B which in use extend in a substantially horizontal direction along one of the opposite sides of the person's thorax 12 and a contact surface for contacting one of the opposite sides of the person's thorax 12. At least a part of the contact surface of each cup is located behind, that is, outside the tilt axes A, B of each cup, with respect to the person's thorax. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
