Beneath the platform of Vanry's WRA III A, a crossed scissor linkage does the lifting for a three-function electric bed that measures 2245 by 1070 mm and travels between 430 and 780 mm. Its four pictograms picture the backrest rising, the leg section rising, both moving together, and the whole platform lifting. Nothing else from the manufacturer turned up for this model, which leaves open the platform size, section angles, load limit, battery, CPR route and control behaviour.

As the platform comes down, the linkage folds and the frame closes towards the floor, so anything beneath it is at risk: a carer's foot, a child or a pet, a footstool, slippers, or a drainage bag left on the floor. Electric movement makes that easy to miss, because the person pressing the button may be watching the patient, not the floor. Looking under before lowering, and watching the whole descent, prevents most of it. Night-time lowering needs the same care, with enough light to see beneath.

Product photography shows amber panels on the head and foot boards, four moulded split rails with hand openings and grey hinge units, black actuator housings beneath the platform, a corded handset at the head end, a slatted platform and four castors. Because the linkage is in plain view, it is easy to show people how it folds.

Put four questions to the seller before ordering: does movement halt the instant a button is let go, can the handset be locked, what do the rail tests show against MHRA guidance, and how is the backrest flattened for CPR? As work equipment the bed sits under PUWER and routine electrical testing; LOLER does not reach it. Actuators and handsets take the most wear. Medigear.uk can arrange delivery, installation, familiarisation and service cover.

Homecare, residential care and general wards are where a three-function electric bed of this kind is most often used. From one handset, a person can be sat up with the knees supported, and the platform taken down to 430 mm for getting out or up to 780 mm for care.

The space beneath the bed is the part people forget. A crossed scissor linkage folds as the platform lowers, and the frame comes down towards the floor, so whatever is underneath, from a carer's foot to a pet, a child or a stool, can be caught. In a home, where family carers, visitors and animals share the room, that risk is higher than on a ward. The answer is a routine: look under, clear the floor, lower while watching the floor as well as the patient, and stop at once if anything appears. Commodes and footstools are best kept to one side, not beneath the frame.

Controls matter as much as the routine. A handset left within reach of a small child or a confused person can lower the bed unseen, so lockout, or keeping the handset out of reach, is part of the plan. Whether movement stops the instant the button is released is not published and should be confirmed.

With the mattress on, the moulded rails should be measured against MHRA guidance, and the regulator's 2023 safety alert expects rail use to be decided person by person. It is built for adults of standard size, not for bariatric patients or children. Buyers' procurement checks will cover the legal manufacturer, the standard edition, how the controls behave and the rail tests. The conformity documentation those procurement routes require is issued by the manufacturer and provided by the seller.

A Bed That Looks at Home

Warm-toned end panels give the bed a domestic appearance. Care rooms read as bedrooms to residents and their families.

Supports Dementia-Friendly Design

Natural colours and familiar-looking furnishings are part of dementia-friendly design guidance. The bed contributes to an environment that helps residents settle.

Full Electric Positioning

Backrest, knee rest and height all adjust electrically from the handset. Care staff position residents quickly and comfortably.

Upright for Meals and Visits

A 70° backrest and 35° knee rest give a supported seated posture. Residents sit up to eat, talk and spend time with visitors.

Height for Transfers and Care

Height adjustment lowers the platform for transfers and raises it for personal care. Staff protect their backs during daily routines.

Ready for Emergencies

Electric CPR flattens the backrest from one key, and a manual release works by hand. The emergency stop halts all movement instantly.

Handholds for Independence

Split side rails with open handholds give residents a firm grip when sitting up or getting out. Independence is supported every day.

Positioning at a Glance

The angle indicator shows the backrest position. Staff confirm and record positioning quickly.

Strong 260 kg Safe Working Load

The frame carries a safe working load of 260 kg. It supports the full range of adult residents.

Warm-Toned End Panels

The head and foot boards carry warm-toned panels. They give the bed a domestic appearance in care rooms.

Backrest to 70°

The backrest rises electrically from 0 to 70° (±5°). It supports sitting for meals, breathing and comfort.

Knee Rest to 35°

The knee rest rises electrically from 0 to 35° (±5°). It supports the thighs and helps hold a seated posture.

Linked Movement and Multi-Position Calf Section

One control raises backrest and knee together, and the calf section adjusts to several positions. Residents reach a stable seated posture in one movement.

Electric Height from 450 to 780 mm

Height adjusts electrically from 450 to 780 mm (±20 mm). The range covers transfers and a comfortable working height.

Electric and Manual CPR

A single key flattens the backrest for resuscitation, and a manual release does the same by hand. Both are ready for the first seconds of an arrest.

Emergency Stop

The emergency stop halts all bed movement instantly. Staff keep decisive control during any adjustment.

Angle Indicator

The angle indicator shows the backrest position at a glance. It supports consistent positioning.

Corded Handset

A corded handset operates all three functions and the CPR key. It stays attached, so it is always to hand.

Split Side Rails with Handholds

Split side rails at the head and foot on both sides have open handholds. They protect residents and give a firm grip.

1950 × 900 mm Platform and 260 kg Safe Working Load

The platform is full adult size and carries 260 kg. The load covers the patient, the mattress and any equipment on the bed.

Slotted Deck and Braked Castors

The deck sections are slotted to let air move beneath the mattress. Braked castors roll freely for moves and lock at the bedside.

The WRA III A is a three-function electric bed that raises and lowers on a crossed scissor linkage, running from 430 to 780 mm, with powered backrest and leg section, amber-panelled boards and moulded split rails. As the platform comes down, the linkage folds and the space beneath closes, so feet, pets, children's hands and stored items can be caught. A simple routine prevents it: look under, clear the floor, and watch the whole descent. Ahead of ordering, pin down whether movement halts when a button is released, how the handset locks, the load limit and section angles, battery and CPR provision, the rail test results, the standard edition, the legal manufacturer and current production. Medigear.uk lists the WRA III A for UK business buyers and can arrange delivery, installation, familiarisation and service cover. A clear floor beneath the bed is the simplest safety measure it has.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything buyers need to know about sourcing medical equipment through MediGear.

Each of the three is motorised and run from the handset: backrest, leg section, and overall platform height. The pictogram labels are too small to read at this resolution, yet the drawings clearly show each section rising, both together, and the platform lifting level, so a linked back-and-knee button is likely. Section angles are unpublished. Ask the seller for the angles and a legible copy of the pictogram labels. A clear copy also helps staff learn the controls.

Because it shrinks every time the bed goes down. The crossed linkage folds as the platform lowers, and the frame closes towards the floor, so an object or a foot under the bed can be trapped between frame and floor, or between the moving arms of the linkage. At the lowest setting of 430 mm there is least room of all. The risk is simple to control, but only if people know it is there. Telling every user about it is the first control.

Anything that ends up under the bed. In a hospital that might be a drainage bag on the floor, a footstool or a carer's foot as they sit close. At home it might be slippers, a child reaching for a toy, or a pet that likes the dark space underneath. In a care home it might be a resident's belongings pushed out of the way. Keeping the floor beneath the bed clear removes most of these at once.

That is not published, and it should not be assumed. Many electric beds move only while a button is held, so releasing it stops the movement, but they do not detect an obstruction on their own. Ask the seller whether the WRA III A stops as soon as the button is released, and whether it has any form of obstruction detection. Train staff to rely on looking, not on the bed. A demonstration at delivery shows exactly how it behaves.

Look under the bed and around the base first, and clear anything there. Tell the patient what is about to happen, then lower the platform while watching the floor as well as the patient, and stop at once if anything comes into the space. Keep the handset out of reach of small children. The same routine applies every time the bed goes down, day or night. Good night lighting helps staff see the floor.

Often, yes. Homes have children, grandchildren and pets who may crawl or settle under a bed, and family carers may not have been shown how the mechanism moves. A short demonstration at delivery, showing the linkage folding as the bed lowers, makes the risk obvious. Where young children visit, a handset that can be locked, or kept out of reach, adds a further safeguard. Pets that sleep under beds may need gently discouraging from the habit.

Not stated. A lockable handset lets staff or families disable height adjustment, or all functions, so that a child, a confused person or a curious visitor cannot lower the bed unseen. Find out whether lockout exists, how staff switch it on, and whether individual functions can be locked on their own. Where it is not, the handset should be kept out of reach when the bed is not being adjusted. Record the lockout setting in each care plan.

Nothing that could be caught as the platform lowers, and nothing that blocks cleaning or a hoist. That rules out belongings, boxes, footstools, spare linen and anything left temporarily on the floor. Drainage bags should hang from their proper hooks, clear of the floor and the linkage. A clear floor beneath the bed is safer and easier to clean. A shelf or basket elsewhere keeps belongings within reach instead.

The answer rests on measurements the sheet leaves out. MHRA's advice is to keep any opening in a rail, or between rail and mattress platform, below 120 mm, to hold the rail-end-to-headboard gap below 60 mm, and to have the rail top at least 220 mm above an uncompressed mattress. The hand openings in these moulded rails count as openings for that check. Get the manufacturer's rail test results, then measure the installed rails with the chosen mattress on. Where an opening proves too large, fit covers or reconsider using rails at all.

Dropped to 430 mm, the platform lets many adults sit on the edge with both feet flat before standing, and anyone who does fall has less distance to fall. Raised to 780 mm, it brings care tasks up to a comfortable working level. Whether those figures are taken at the platform or the mattress top is not stated. The bottom of the range is also where the space beneath is tightest, so that is when the lowering routine matters most. Note the chosen low setting in the care plan.

None is published. Get the safe working load in writing, remembering that the mattress and any accessories count towards it. Ask whether a battery is fitted for lowering during a power failure, and whether there is a manual CPR release to flatten the backrest quickly. With a 1070 mm overall width, the platform is standard adult size, not bariatric. Whatever the route, it belongs in resuscitation training.

The adult medical bed standard is now IEC 80601-2-52:2026, which took over from IEC 60601-2-52:2009 and its 2015 amendment and was adopted in Europe in July 2026; during the changeover, a declaration could quote either. According to Hebei Vanry Medical Devices Co., Ltd in Baoding, some importers rebrand its beds as their own. The WRA III A appears on the sheet with a circled A after WRA III, but not on Vanry's website. Ask the seller to confirm the ordering code, that the bed is still made, and who the declaration names as legal manufacturer. That name is the one that matters for any safety notice.
