Pocket 5 Safety Principles When Using Elevator Chairs

Elevators or electric chair lifts for the elderly are becoming more and more popular due to their practicality for the elderly, the disabled and homes with limited space for elevator installation. However, just like conventional elevators, electric chair lifts for the elderly also require compliance with various principles during use to ensure safety.

In the article below, we will provide you with 5 basic safety principles in using elevator chairs for the elderly .

What is a chair elec?

A stairlift is a mobility aid that helps users go up and down stairs with ease. It is the perfect choice for people who have difficulty using stairs due to injury, disability or the effects of aging.

With a special structure, shaped like a recliner and installed along the stair railing, this type of chair lift for the elderly has become popular for old houses or houses with limited area, because it does not require much renovation and does not take up too much space.

In addition, the chair lift also has a floor design for standing or holding wheelchairs. The common point of both designs is that the seat and floor position can be automatically folded when not in use, helping to save space. At the same time, they are manufactured to suit different types of stairs such as straight lift, spiral lift or outdoor installation.

The operating mechanism of this type of electric chair lift is that the chair or floor is fixed on a lifting shaft and moves along a fixed journey, usually a short distance equivalent to one flight of stairs.

5 SAFETY PRINCIPLES IN USING ELEVATOR CHAIRS

Like conventional elevators, chair lifts are also considered user-friendly due to their simple operating mechanism. However, chair lifts for the elderly also pose safety risks during use. Therefore, ensuring safety principles during the use of chair lifts is very important and includes the following:

Elevator chair safety: Users need to be careful when getting on and off the elevator chair, ensuring the device is completely stationary and securely fixed before getting on or off.

Proper Sitting/Standing Position: Ensuring a safe sitting or standing position is essential. Forpower chair lifts, the user should sit upright, fastening all provided safety belts for added protection. In the case of lifts on raised platforms, the user should stand or place the wheelchair in the middle of the raised platform, avoiding any body parts extending beyond the lift frame.

Adhering to Weight Limits: It is important to strictly adhere to the weight limits recommended by the stair lift manufacturer, as exceeding the load can affect stability and safety.

Regular Maintenance: Regular routine maintenance checks are important to ensure optimal performance ofyour chair lift. These checks should include a thorough examination of both mechanical components and safety features.

Emergency Preparedness: Familiarizing yourself with the emergency stop button is essential. Understanding and mastering the operation of this important feature can be the key to responding quickly to emergencies and preventing accidents.

Using 24V/2A output power source: Because the elevator chaircontrol systemis installed directly on the chair or platform, using 24V/2A power source is a safe measure to solve electrical problems. This voltage ensures both the elevator chair's operating function and the current intensity is not too high, protecting the health and spirit of the user.
