PPU-S Floor to Stand Height Patient Lift

IndeeLift is the “People Picker Upper”! Designed to meet the recommendations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

The PPU-S lifts people from the floor up to a standing height. It also has a secondary function that aids a standing person needing a little lift to access sitting onto a high bed or to reach into a tall cabinet or shelf.

The PPU-S will lift a person to its rated capacity of up to 400 lbs (180kg). It is designed to raise a seated person from the floor, or any level above the floor, to a higher height of 30 inches (76cm) that allows the user to stand directly up or to be transferred as required. With the maximum height of 30 inches (76 cm) with rise-assist handle grips, the PPU-S allows just about anyone using it to stand with the absolute least expended energy and load on the extremities.

Lifts the user to a seated level and then, as the lifting continues, the seat can tilt forward allowing the transfer of the user’s weight to their legs at a comfortable level as dictated by the height of the specific user.

Designed and tested to work with individuals of any height. For users with less mobility, transferring directly to a wheelchair is accomplished by raising the seat height to about 21” (53 cm), which allows a height difference of 1-2 inches (2.5-5cm) for lift-free transfers from most seated positions or whatever height will allow a gravity-assisted transfer.

Our lift is portable and can be easily rolled to its destination. The small footprint allows them to be positioned in many places other lifts simply cannot go. With a small radius, it can go just about anywhere including most residential and all ADA accessible bathrooms. Whether a fall occurs in the hallway, a bedroom, bathroom or a living room, this appliance can be wheeled to the person who has fallen for immediate assistance getting up from the floor.

The PPU-S patented design features a mounting ramp seat that eliminates the need to ever lift a person manually and a tracking function that allows the seat to tilt forward as the user is lifted, shifting their weight onto their legs.

A user on the floor either scoots onto the lift using the front ramp or they can tilt up onto the seat (see training video for details). The seat plate can either be locked in a stationary position or unlocked to allow the seat plate to rotate forward to allow a user to get to a standing position. Two locking tabs are located at the rear of the seat plate, one on each side of the main vertical column, which are operated with a single seat lock release mechanism.

The wire remote has a 5’ (1.5m) cord, allowing the user or a helper to operate the lift. The wired remote has physical, easy-operate button controls that indicate the up and down functionality. The wired remote is stored on the handles with the hanger clip.

The rise-assist handles have been engineered to provide leverage to assist the seated party in the process of standing once they are up from the floor. The arms can swing away from the seat when needed. They are also removable to allow for mount assistance or a direct transfer to a wheelchair or other destination.

PPU-S comes standard with a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery pack and smart charger permanently mounted to the unit. The mounting bracket for the charger also serves as a cord wrap to store the removeable power cord. Charging is accomplished by plugging the charging unit’s AC power cord into a standard AC wall power outlet. A full charge takes about eight hours. The control system will provide a beep tone when operated and batteries need being charged.

The PPU-S comes with two safety belts (chest and waist)
