Rocky

180° BED + “ZERO GRAVITY”
+ FULL-CHAIR LIFT

The Rocky mechanism is the best currently available on the relaxation chair market, especially because it also allows vertical lifting of the entire structure.

—  It can be transformed into a stretcher to be placed next to the bed, facilitating the transfer of the person to and from the chair without the need for lifts. Additionally, it allows caregivers to operate in an upright position with greater comfort and safety.

—  Thanks to tool-free disassembly, it can be used as a chair for dining at a table, and all movements of the chair are controlled by a dedicated motor, allowing infinite positions.

—  The load capacity of the Rocky mechanism reaches up to 340 kg.
