<;P>;PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To support the action of a cared person to safely stand up from a bed or a wheelchair without arranging an external electric power supply or a large and expensive power source. <;P>;SOLUTION: A turning frame 3 is turned so as to be locked by inclining armpit support members 5, 5 arranged in vertical parts 3A to be at the height of regions close to the armpits of the cared person in a seated posture. The armpit support members 5, 5 are positioned by insertion to the both armpits of the cared person. The body weight is settled onto a breast pad cushion 6 by abutment around the breast. Then, the lock is released. Thus, the biasing force of a coil spring 22 allows the turning frame 3 to be turned in a recovery direction and the vertical parts 3A to be erected. Consequently the cared person supported by the armpit support members 5, 5 comes to be in a stand-up posture. <;P>;COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
