ABSTRACT:
A combination desk and wheelchair-lift adapted primarily for medical-surgical examination/treatment of a wheelchair-seated person comprises a mobile desk unit having a selectively retractable caster assembly. The wheelchair lift is attached to the desk by a linking slider assembly and is movable between a stored position underneath the desk and an extended position spaced from the desk. When in the extended position, a wheelchair may be rolled onto the wheelchair-lift rotatable platform and raised in a vertical direction by electrically actuated lifting mechanisms on either side of the platform. A clamp assembly is provided adjacent one of the lifting mechanisms for attaching a variety of diagnostic examination/treatment or medical-surgical equipment positioned adjacent the patient seated in the wheelchair.
