Intended Use
Convertible Chair
Human Care’s Convertible Chair is a mechanical positioning
chair that can be adjusted to various positions. The device
is used to alter postural positions and to provide a means of
transferring a patient horizontally from a height adjustable
bed or trolley to the chair and vice versa. The chair can
then be transformed from a supine position into the sitting
position without ever lifting the patient.
Its construction is made of steel tubular components, on
to which is fitted foam-filled upholstery. The mechanism
allows the chair to transform from the horizontal supine
position into a chair, which can then be tilted. The reclining
function allows the chair and patient profile to change from
a sitting position to a horizontal or supine position suitable
for tranferring. The Tilt-in-Space function allows the I-400
/ I-700 to be independently inclined to the rear (Tilt-in-
Space).
