ABSTRACT:
A unique multi-level trapeze handle and support pole system for assisting elderly and disabled persons for sitting up in bed and standing up from bed. It comprises a telescopic pole adapted to be fixed between the floor and ceiling of a room, a horizontal arm fixed on the upper section of the pole, upon the end of which is suspended a unique "two tier" trapeze handle. The system is to be used by elderly or disabled persons to independently execute the following motions while in bed: pull themselves upward slightly to shift laterally in bed, pull themselves up to a seated position in bed, shift from seated position on the bed to standing beside the bed. This invention relates to our U.S. Pat. No. 5,586,352 which describes a support pole with pivoting and locking handrail for elderly and disabled persons.
