<p>An invalid hoist sling attachment device comprises a holder (10) attached to or adapted to be attached to a sling hanger of an invalid hoist (or a sling) and a clip (11) attached to or adapted to be attached to the sling (or the sling hanger). The holder comprises a plate-like part (13) and a headed stud (14) projecting from one face of the plate-like part. The clip has a slot (17) comprising a first portion (17a) through which the head of the stud will pass and a second portion (17b) through which the head of the stud will not pass. The holder also has a resilient locking element (18) having at least a portion (19) which protrudes from said one face of the plate-like part to prevent movement of the clip relative to the holder, when the clip is engaged with the headed stud of the holder, into a position in which the head of the stud and the first portion of the slot are aligned without first depressing the resilient locking element.</p> |
