A Dual-Motor Actuator for Ceiling Lift with High-Force and High-Speed Capabilities by Ian Lalonde, Jeff Denis, Mathieu Lamy, Alexandre Girard

“…However, patient assistance requires devices capable of precisely controlling output forces at significantly higher speeds than those used for patient transfers alone, and a single-motor solution would be over-sized and would show poor efficiency for accomplishing both functions. This paper presents a ceiling robot, using a dual-motor actuator and adapted control schemes, that can be used to transfer patients, assist patients in their movement, and help prevent falls. …”
