Description
Drive 13049SV is a silver-vein free-standing bariatric bed trapeze. It stands on its own floor base and gives a person an overhead handle to hold while repositioning or transferring in bed.
What does it do?
- The chain slides along the 37 in (94 cm) boom, from the headboard edge to the far end, so the handle can sit within reach.
- The frame stands on the floor and does not clamp to a bed rail.
- It assembles without tools, and the frame weighs 74 lbs (34 kg).
- It is an aid, not a hoist. It must not be used to suspend a person.
Who can use it?
It suits a person with the grip and upper-body strength to pull on the handle as part of an assessed plan.
- The rating is 650 lbs (295 kg), but that is an assistance limit: the trapeze is not designed to support the whole body weight.
- A person who cannot take weight or grip the handle needs a patient lift instead.
- A clinician assesses the person before the trapeze is used.
Will it fit beside the bed?
- Measure the floor space beside and under the bed, and the person's reach from the mattress.
- The boom is 37 in (94 cm) long, and the chain position sets the handle height above the bed.
- A home assessment can check the actual frame against the bed and the room.
How is it assembled?
- Slide section 3 over section 1 and press the push pins; repeat with section 2.
- Slide section 4 down over section 3 and pull the locking pin outward until it locks.
- Slide the ring over section 4, press its push button into place, and tighten the thumb screw.
- Check every connection before the person uses it.
The limited lifetime warranty covers the original owner against defects in materials and workmanship.
- It does not cover misuse, negligence or normal wear.
- Wear parts such as grips and casters are excluded and need periodic replacement.
- Altering or repairing the frame can void the warranty.
How does it compare?
- 13039SV: the Drive free-standing trapeze with wheels.
- Patient lifts: for a person who needs full support in a transfer.
- Trapeze: other bed handles in the range.
Frequently asked questions
Can the handle position be changed?
Yes. The chain slides from the headboard edge to the end of the 37 in (94 cm) boom.
Is special assembly equipment needed?
No. The frame assembles by hand with push pins, a locking pin and a thumb screw. It weighs 74 lbs (34 kg), so arrange help to position it.
Does this version have wheels?
No. 13049SV is the free-standing base model. The wheeled version is 13039SV.
Can the person hang their full weight from it?
No. It is for support and assistance only, not for suspending the whole body weight.
