Picture of ROCKING CHAIR ADAPTER FOR WHEEL CHAIR ----CUSTOM ADAPTATION ---- PURPOSE: To make it possible for a wheelchair to absorb the shocks from the involuntary backward and forward movements of a girl with cerebral palsy. This girl has broken parts of her chair several times previously. Instead of building a special rocking chair, it was decided to convert the wheelchair itself into a rocking chair. A device was built using 6-millimeter thick aluminium plate rolled to a suitable curve. The chair can be rolled onto the device and tied down. The device weighs only a few kilograms and can be stored when not in use. WEB SITE: Workshop Solutions at http://www.workshopsolutions.com. REF: The originator, Tony Sprent of TAD Tasmania, can be contacted at tony.sprent@utas.edu.au.
