This innovative electric shifter simplifies operations and enhances the user-friendliness of patient shifts, aiming to reduce caregivers' burden while improving patient comfort and safety. Compared to a chair-type shifter, this product requires only three simple steps: "place the cushion, position the connection, and raise the shifter" to complete the shift, which significantly reduces the difficulty of use and can be easily managed by a single person. The electric lifting system provides a lifting range of up to 26cm, which can be flexibly adapted to different bed heights when positioned, thus perfectly satisfying the user's specific needs.

To ensure an optimal user experience, the product is equipped with an Okin motor for silent lifting and lowering. It has a maximum load capacity of up to 120kg, ensuring safety and reliability. Compared to pneumatic drives, this shifter avoids the safety hazards associated with sudden acceleration during pneumatic lifting, ensures even speed and precise control, and provides patients with a smooth and reassuring experience while eliminating the need for manual press-down, saving the carer's effort.

This shifter is designed with user convenience in mind. It features a large-diameter toilet hole and a contingency urinal, making toileting easier for users. The spring cord that connects the remote control to the device prevents the remote control from being lost, ensuring its easy accessibility. The bottom universal wheels enable the shifter to move more flexibly, providing users with a convenient and comfortable home care experience.
