PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sit-to-stand motion assist device suppressing movement of a person from being hindered.SOLUTION: A sit-to-stand motion assist device 1 includes a support body 11 and a handrail plate 7 set on the support body 11 so as to be parallel to a horizontal plane. The handrail plate 7 is movable in a prescribed moving direction within the horizontal plane. For example, the length of the handrail plate 7 in a direction orthogonal to the moving direction within the horizontal plane is longer than that in the moving direction. Also, for example, the apparatus further includes a fixation mechanism for fixing the handrail plate 7 to a prescribed position in the way of movement of the handrail plate 7.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9B【課題】人の動作を妨げることを抑制する立上がり動作補助具を提供する。【解決手段】立上がり動作補助具１は、支持体１１と、支持体１１上に水平面に平行に設けられた手摺板７とを備え、手摺板７は、上記水平面内の所定の移動方向に移動可能である。例えば、手摺板７は、移動方向の長さより、上記水平面内で移動方向に直交する方向の長さが長い。また、例えば、さらに、手摺板７を、手摺板７の移動の途上の所定の位置に固定する固定機構を備える。【選択図】図９Ｂ
