title: Power reclined wheelchair back.
abstract: The mechanism herein described is a simple, safe and resonably inexpensive way to add a power reclining feature to an electric wheelchair. Because of its novel linkage arrangement the device is compact and fits within the perimeter of the existing wheelchair without the need to relocate the battery or otherwise alter the chair. It is a device which can increase the independence of those severely handicapped individuals who use electrically powered reclining wheelchairs.
