Abstract—People are demanding quality health care as their living standards are improved and the elderly population is increasing. In addition, many people with disabilities and older people want to use good rehabilitation aids. In this study, we developed "patient lift" for human stability. The developed lift has been studied focusing on the user's "power and gravity center" and the result is designed to lead to the stability of the lift. Therefore, all designs have been designed to optimize the driving torque and lift height according to the patient's weight for patient safety. In addition, static stability analysis for the developed lift was conducted. The analysis program was ANSYS, ABACUS. The analytical conditions for the lift are based on the test evaluation method according to ISO 10535. The final designed lift was tested through an internationally accredited laboratory to determine whether the test was appropriate for static safety modeling.
