About the solution
Peter Lammer, a 52-year-old cook from Germany, faced a life-altering challenge after a severe motorcycle accident. Previously an active and dedicated family man, Peter’s world changed drastically when the accident resulted in debilitating leg injuries and an 80% disability rating.
Confronted with overwhelming physical pain, mental strain, and financial uncertainty, he could have easily succumbed to his circumstances. Instead, driven by his commitment to his family and his passion for his work, Peter channeled his adversity into innovation and with the help of his friend Bernhard Tichy created StandSmart.
StandSmart is a dynamic standing aid designed to support both the legs and trunk, keeping the user's hands-free for productive tasks. This invention aims to bridge the gap between rehabilitation and effective reintegration into the workforce, transforming these concepts from mere buzzwords into tangible realities. The core of this innovation is the Standing Ovation system, a meticulously engineered solution offering various benefits.
Standing Ovation is an individually adapted rail system featuring a seat unit that significantly alleviates leg strain. This advanced system is specifically designed to support users in a standing position, reducing pain, swelling, and the need for medication. By providing substantial lower extremity relief, it enhances mobility and work speed while fostering economic independence and meaningful employment.
Standing Ovation is comprised of three key components:
1. Rail System: A versatile rail structure that can be either overhead-mounted or free-standing, tailored to fit various environments.
2.C-Bar: A C-shaped seat bar that provides critical support and stability.
3.Seat Lifting Unit: A lifting mechanism that integrates with the C-bar to enable three-dimensional movement.
This innovative system allows the device to support the user's torso weight, ensuring that hands remain free for tasks. Additionally, when lifting loads, the device absorbs any extra weight, minimizing leg strain. The spring-loaded rotation unit further enhances user freedom, providing maximum accessibility and adaptability in any setting where Standing Ovation is utilized.
