摘要： A chassis is provided having two longitudinal sides, one or more cross-bars between the sides, and two torsion forwardly and downwardly extending arms terminating in sleeves for holding snap-in casters. When attached to the other wheelchair components, the arms create a space therebetween and under the wheelchair seat for storage of optional items. The molded chassis may be tailored to performance specifications and is constructed from composite material, preferably by compression molding using sheet molding compound or by resin transfer molding. Shock and vibration attenuating characteristics are selectable and the chassis sides may be of one or multiple piece construction. Each longitudinal side includes two vertically extending posts for attaching a seat, the posts providing a height, seat pan angle and center of gravity adjustment mechanism for the seating system relative to the chassis. The drive wheels are attached to camber plugs which are secured within recesses in the sides. The camber plugs are interchangeable and include a variety of selected camber angles. In another aspect of the present invention, the cross-bars are of adjustable width thereby permitting the width of the chassis to be adjusted to accommodate users of different sizes, and to accommodate different sized seating systems. In an additional aspect of the invention, the chassis disassembles into two halves, the two halves connected by cross-bars of a preselected length. In one additional aspect, seat mounting rails are attached within an inner surface of the longitudinal sides. The chassis may attach a variety of seating systems, including one piece composite seats.

摘要： A wheel chair having four spaced apart surface support wheels positioned on each corner of a rectangular platform in which a person rides is readily convertible to a walker which supports a person walking therebehind which has a triangular support platform with two spaced apart wheels at the rear and two closely positioned wheels acting effectively as a single dual wheel at the front thereof. The front portion of the rectangular platform of the wheel chair folds together to form the walker triangular support platform. The seat platform of the wheel chair is flexible and folds up at the front when the device is in its walker configuration. A Velcro type strap closes the front of the folded seat at the fold to provide a closed container for carrying items.

摘要： A storage bag attachable to a wheelchair is pivotable from a stored position against the back of a wheelchair backrest to an accessible position adjacent a wheelchair armrest. Pivoting is accomplished under power of an electric motor which rotates an L-shaped bar supporting the storage bag or similar receptacle. The motor can be reversible for powering the bag in both directions between its stored position and its accessible position, or a return spring or gravity return can operate in the return direction. A manual switch controls the driving motor and is preferably mounted on the wheelchair armrest. Electrical energy for powering the motor can be derived from an auxiliary battery mounted on the wheelchair frame.

摘要： A modular wheelchair that may be rapidly assembled and disassembled includes an adjustable chassis for releasably attaching a wheel module and a seating module having a detachable leg rest module. The one-piece chassis is constructed from composite materials and has hollow or foam filled longitudinal sides and cross-bars connecting the sides, and two cantilevered or trussed forwardly extending arms which connect swivel castors. The sides include mounts for adjustably attaching the seat module at a selectable center of gravity and height. The composite materials of the arms provide shock and vibration protection and further provide a space behind the arms and beneath the seating assembly for storing and attaching optional equipment. The wheel assembly includes drive wheels constructed from composite materials, smaller travel wheels for traversing narrow openings, anti-tip wheels and wheel locks. the wheels may be composite or tensioned disk wheels that may be locked by wheel locks having a spring device for automatically opening or closing the lock. The wheels are removably attached within lateral recesses in the chassis sides by interchangeable wheel axle alignment plugs which receive the wheel axle and plug into the recesses. The interchangeable plugs define a variety of angled axle chambers to provide for pre-selection of camber angles for the wheel. The seating assembly includes a frame having two longitudinal side members and at least one cross-member secured to the sides at the front and rear of the frame, side rails for adjustably mounting to the mounts on the chassis, and a seat with a forwardly pivoting back rest. A leg rest module including a foot rest is adjustably mounted to the seating module and includes a leg rest clamping mechanism for clamping the leg rest at a fixed angular orientation relative to the frame. The leg rest may be rotated substantially 90 degrees in front of the wheelchair and substantially 90 degrees to a retraction position beneath the seat. The leg rest includes independently adjustable right and left foot rest plates to enable the length of each leg to be independently accommodated, and for independently adjusting the user's ankle angle. The leg rest may be removed for double amputees.

摘要： A suspension system for a wheelchair comprises a frame, a pivot bar mounted to the frame through a hinge point, and a seat mounted on the pivot bar. The pivot bar is supported from the frame by a shock absorber and a helical spring so that impacts transferred to the frame through the wheelchair wheels are partially decoupled from the movement of the seat. The movement of the seat is constrained in a single plane along the longitudinal axis of the wheelchair.
