A wheelchair head support. The wheelchair head support may have a first and a second support pole connected to a wheelchair in a vertical position. A flexible panel may be connected to the support poles. The panel may further include an attached pillow which adds extra support. The wheelchair head support may attach to the wheel chair using a set of friction connectors or with a set of clamps or any other suitable fasteners.

A swing arm assembly for a foldable wheelchair consisting of a camber tube and adapters is disclosed. The adapters mount to the frame of the wheelchair and receive the ends of the camber tube. One end of the camber tube is pinned into an adapter such that it pivots. The other end is pinned in an adapter using a quick release pin. The camber tube improves the stability of the foldable wheelchair. When desired to fold the wheelchair, the quick release pin is removed and the camber tube is rotated approximately 90 degrees, thereby allowing the wheelchair to fold. The adapters may be mounted to the wheelchair frame or to stub axles if used. The swing arm assembly adds substantial stiffness and stability to a folding wheelchair.

A footrest assembly for wheelchair of the type having a structure expandable from a contracted condition to an expanded position comprises a beam assembly having a structural member having a first end and a second end. A first joint one or more rotational degrees of freedom is adapted to interface the first end of the structural member to a first side of a frame of the wheelchair. A linkage assembly is connected to the structural member by a central joint with one or more rotational degrees of freedom and a lockable translational degree of freedom joint. A second joint with one or more rotational degrees of freedom is adapted to interface the linkage assembly to a second side of the frame of the wheelchair. A connector interface releasably engages the beam assembly to the linkage assembly and/or to the second joint when the wheelchair is deployed for use.

A wheelchair includes: a chassis configured to collapse in a width direction of the wheelchair; at least one wheel carried by the chassis; a seat assembly including a seat and a back support carried by the chassis, the back support defining a tilt angle relative to the seat and being pivotable to adjust the tilt angle; and a tilt assembly carried by the chassis and including at least one tilt actuator coupled to the back support, the at least one tilt actuator being configured to pivot the back support and adjust the tilt angle. The chassis is collapsible in the width direction while carrying the at least one actuator to reduce a width of the wheelchair.

Disclosed is a wheelchair, and particularly to a wheelchair with a lifting function, which has a simple structure for automatically moving a seating block where a wheelchair user is sitting, and enables the seating block to have a lifting movement and a rotational movement, thereby simplifying a structure and assisting the wheelchair user in standing up safely.

A collapsible mobility aid with two frame elements, on each of which at least one wheel is secured or can be secured, and with a folding mechanism by which the frame elements are connected to each other, and a distance between the frame elements in a first position of the folding mechanism can be adapted to a transport distance and in a second position of the folding mechanism can be adapted to a use distance, wherein the folding mechanism has a central element with a slide arranged moveably with respect thereto, at least two connection arms which are each articulated on a frame element and on the central element, and at least two levers which are each articulated on a connection arm and on the slide, wherein the swivel axes, about which the levers are arranged on the connection arms and the slide such that they can be swiveled, are on one plane when the folding mechanism is in the second position.

A mobility assistance apparatus includes first and second frames positioned on left and right sides of a user; a hinge arm mechanism coupled to the first and second frames; and a securing unit or a walking seat coupled to the frames to transfer at least a portion of the user's body weight from the legs and to transfer weight through the user's hip or pelvis to the first and second frame enabling the user to stand or work for an extended period without requiring the user's arms to hold the frame.

A conveyance to carry humans, such as a wheelchair, is described having levers on each side of the wheelchair that are manually moved forward and backward to propel the conveyance. The levers are connected to a tooth clutch mechanism that allow the user to shift into forward, reverse or neutral, brake, and change mechanical advantage (gear ratio), all this without removing the user's hands from the drive levers.
