ABSTRACT:
A lift for tilting a wheelchair intended for use by a physician, dentist or the like in treating a wheelchair bound patient. The wheelchair lift assembly is portable, light weight and easily adapted to any wheelchair structure so as to provide proper support for the chair and occupant as well as provide the necessary angle of repose. The wheelchair lift assembly generally includes a frame, piston and lift linkage for causing rotation of the wheelchair about its rear wheels and stabilizer bars that support the wheelchair in the tilted position and prevent over rotation. Also provided is a detachable footrest support for the comfort of the wheelchair occupant when the wheelchair is lifted by the assembly.
