Linido™ Hinged arm support features a compact and clean design with a looped double tube with a round shape and an ergonomic diameter providing a firm grip for both large and small hands. The looped double tube makes it easier for the user to reach, grip and hold onto the front of the arm support during a forward transfer and prevents the hand from slipping off the rail. This design also prevents clothing from getting caught by the tube.
Hinged arm support is primarily used in the folded-down position, for support when sitting down on or getting up from a toilet or shower seat and for support while standing or while adjusting clothing. The arm support is securely locked in the horizontal position and, when folded up, the arm support automatically locks to provide reliable support also in the upright, vertical position.
In the vertical position Hinged arm support requires a lot less space while still providing safe and sturdy support. As the user is holding the lower tube, the hand will get a good grip without scratching the fingers on the wall. This position also facilitates sideways transfers, e.g. from a wheelchair to the toilet, as well as cleaning of the toilet room.
