ABSTRACT:
A mounting device of the described type may be viewed as being somewhat similar to a camera tripod, for example. Four extendible legs are adapted to be secured to the arms of a wheelchair. Two of the legs terminate in flat pad mounts which may be attached to and rest upon the upper broad and flat surfaces of wheelchair arms. The other two legs include interchangeable ends, some of which may also include flat pad mounts to be attached to the flat surfaces of such arms, and others of which may include spring-clips that may be snapped over or clamped around a bar with a circular cross section. The flat pads are preferably held in place by straps using "Velcro" hook and loop fasteners. The spring-clips are primarily devices which may be pushed into place around a circumference of a circular pipe. Optionally, a wing nut may supplement the circular clamps to more securely hold them in place.
