The Transfer Trapeze is a powered transfer aid designed to allow the user to transfer from a wheelchair to a couch with the aid of an overhead trapeze. The motorized trapeze is suspended from a wheelchair-mounted frame. The frame consists of steel tubing and 1-inch electrical conduit tubing. The motor consists of a used car window motor, which is mounted underneath the seat of the wheelchair. The user grasps the trapeze and activates the mounted switch, which rotates the device 90 degrees and transfers the user to a chair or couch. PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT: Designed by Ken Bayles for persons with limited upper body strength to assist them in transferring from one chair to another.
