ABSTRACT:
A camera stand for mounting a camera or the like to a wheelchair. The device includes a platform on which the camera is mounted, a stand disposed between the platform and the wheelchair, and structure for mounting the stand to the wheelchair. The platform may be any conventional camera platform similar to those used with a conventional camera tripod. The structure for mounting the stand to the wheelchair comprises at least one clamp, which may be any of a variety of clamps well known in the industry for connecting two tubular structures. The stand itself has four different embodiments for mounting to different types of wheelchairs, including stands adapted for mounting to a front rail, a steering column, an armrest, or a back support, depending on the model of the wheelchair. The stand has a height adjustment means for adjusting the height of the camera platform to suit individuals who sit higher or lower in the wheelchair, and includes a pair of telescoping tubes secured by a clamp. In the preferred embodiment, the platform is mounted on a hinged arm, the hinged arm being attached to the stand by means of a cylinder which telescopes and rotates on the top telescoping tube.
