ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a cart for positioning an individual's body on a toilet. It is particularly advantageous for transporting a handicapped person to such toilet and automatically aligning the handicapped person's body above the toilet. The cart has castors for easy rolling and also has guiding rollers that center the individual's body over the toilet when the cart is rolled backwardly over the toilet. The invention also incorporates a pneumatic system for raising the individual's body above the height of the toilet's seat when the body is pushed over the toilet and for, subsequently, lowering the individual's body onto the toilet seat in a position that enables use of the toilet by the individual.
