Rollator-Rest®
The easy, comfortable and safe way to travel with a rollator in public transport!
EASY AND SAFE TRAVEL
______________________________________________________________________
More and more especially elderly and handicapped people use the rollator or rolling walker. It gives them the possibility to stay mobile and independent. Our mission is to enlarge their range of activity by using the public transport systems in an easy, comfortable and safe way with minimal impact on the operator’s business and the driver’s job.
The only thing operators have to do, is to mount a rollator-rest unit in an easily accessible area in their public transport vehicles.
FUNCTIONALITY
Initial Situation, ready to use
If there is no rollator, it might be used as leaning perch.
Rollator is parked and unit is buckling on
Ready to sit
BENEFICIAL FOR ALL...
Passengers with a rollator
The rollator-rest provides more comfort and safety.
Passengers with a rollator…
may sit on a familiar device,
have no stress to look for a seat,
don’t have to move to a seat,
don’t have to fix the rollator,
always have one or two hands on a stabilising point.
Operators
The rollator-rest gains…
time: no waiting till the passengers move to a seat.
capacity: passengers with a rollator don’t use a seat.
safety: passengers with reduced mobility can sit secured.
Heinz Illi, safety officer by Zurich Public Transport (VBZ):
"I was surprised by the convincing results during the field test in Zurich. I would like to have the rollator-rest to solve this continuous issue in our vessels as soon as possible."
Technical Reliability and Built to Last
The Rollator-Rest excels with its purely mechanical design, avoiding complex electronics. Its ingenious yet simple engineering achieves a harmonious blend of efficiency and ease of use. Furthermore, the use of standard industrial parts guarantees durability and facilitates straightforward maintenance, ensuring prolonged reliability in demanding environments.
