English term or phrase: lifting means
Hello everyone!

Here the context: "A moveable platform 22 sits on top of the frame 10. It is configured to travel in an upward and downward direction, powered by a lifting means. In the preferred embodiment, the lifting means comprises a reciprocating air-actuated cylinder 24, connected to an air supply 26 which is controlled by a control means 28. In other embodiments, other lifting means that can provide reciprocating axial action are used, such as a gear arrangement, another type of hydraulic cylinder, or a treadle."

My attempt: "medios mecánicos" ??

Thanks in advance!
