Overview
The StaminaLift TS-5000 is the flagship hospital bed mover from RIHA Industries — the most advanced and most widely specified model in the range. With a 1,323 lbs (600 kg) push/pull capacity, a single operator can safely move a fully loaded hospital bed without physical strain, across flat surfaces and up to a 7° incline.
The TS-5000 attaches directly to the wheel of the bed using its fully patented jaw mechanism, then slides underneath, keeping corridors clear and eliminating the cable and equipment hazards of alternative systems. The fully programmable joystick gives the operator complete, fingertip control of direction and speed — no pushing, steering, or heavy maneuvering required.
It is the only hospital bed mover that is FDA-registered in the United States.
The Problem It Solves
On any given workday, healthcare staff move beds an average distance of 9 mi (15 km) — up to 46 mi (75 km) per week. A fully loaded hospital bed can weigh up to 1,100 lbs (500 kg). Repeated pushing and steering of these loads is a leading cause of musculoskeletal injury in healthcare settings.
In a documented case at a large South Australian hospital, bed-moving injuries fell from 20% of all workplace injuries to zero within two years of StaminaLift adoption.
Key Specifications
| TS-5000 | |
|---|---|
| Push/pull capacity | 1,323 lbs (600 kg) |
| Lift capacity | 661 lbs (300 kg) |
| Max operating gradient | 7° |
| Bed compatibility | 95% of all hospital beds |
| Sound level | 65 dB |
| Drive programs | 3 (customizable per user) |
Push/pull capacity is the force the TS-5000 applies to move the bed across the floor — the number that determines whether a fully loaded bed can be transported safely by a single operator. Lift capacity is the vertical load the caster-jaw mechanism supports when it lifts the caster off the floor during attachment. Both ratings apply at the full 7° operating gradient.
Optional Accessories
- Ride-on Platform — staff ride the unit between transfers, reducing walking distance in large facilities
