ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for use in a bathtub as an entry and exit aid includes a seat which can be raised and lowered by a drive, a backrest, and an actuator which is placed between the drive and the seat. The actuator includes a support which engages the seat and which extends downwardly to prop itself on a support area, i.e., a floor plate of the device, thereby lifting the seat as the support extends downwardly. The backrest can be tilted backward when the seat is in or near its lowest position.
