<p>A bath lift, for raising or lowering an invalid or disabled user out of and into a bath tub 5, comprises a frame 3 and a seat member 2. The frame 3 mounts on the rim 4 of the bath tub 5, and the seat member 2 is suspended at each side on flexible supporting tapes 15,17,19,21. The tapes 15,17,19,21 are wound on respective and separately mounted shafts 9 and 10 which extend along opposite sides of the frame 3. Thus rotation of either shaft 9 or 10 effects controlled lifting (or lowering) of the corresponding side of the seat member 2. <IMAGE></p> |
