Details
The simplest of the DAESSY Wheelchair Mounting Assemblies is the DAESSY Rigid Mount with Bent-tube. It is also excellent at holding and positioning your valuable technology reliably, repeatably and with assurance.
This mount consists of ONE length of stainless steel tube, bent at a right-angle. The "Bent-tube" length creates the Horizontal and Vertical sections of this DAESSY Rigid Mount, each can be specified if required. It's simplicity is also a downside due to the vertical and horizontal legnths being oart of the one tube, such that any twisting of the vertical tube around it's axis will swing the horizontal section in an arc accordingly.
For that reason, offset cannot be included in the vertical section of the Bent-tube meaning it can only run in straight lines from it's attachment point on the frame of the wheelchair. If there is a tray being used which must be navigated around, we'd suggest looking at the DAESSY Rigid Mount which has individual tubes, including an offset vertical pole which can be used to advantage.
If there's no obstructions in the way above the Frame Clamp attachment point, then the DAESSY Rigid Mount with Bent-tube can be a very effective mount.
Locking Frame Clamp
The mount is easily attached and detached from the wheelchair frame via a tounge and groove locking system - the Removable Frame Clamp Receiver (part code RFCR) which stays attached to the chair is the "groove" and the Removable Frame Clamp Outer Piece (part code ROP) is the "tounge" and is attached to the vertical section of the bent tube, which also sets the height.
The RFCR has a blue lock which, when engaged, securely holds the DAESSY Rigid Mount with Bent-tube's tubing in place no matter the terrain or tube angle. This mount only has two positions - "in use" or "removed".
The Frame Clamp Assembly therefore is composed of the Frame Clamp Inner Piece, the Removable Frame Clamp Receiver and the Removable Frame Clamp Outer Piece attached to each other and is the "Locking" component of this mount's name. This makes the mount totallt compliant for tilting seat systems or for installation where angling of the bent-tube past 15 degree from vertical is required.
There are two versions of the DAESSY Bent-Tube Mount - the standard version and this Locking version.
Locking Version - Removable Frame Clamp Outer Piece and Removable Frame Clamp Receiver
The DAESSY Rigid Mount with Bent-tube Locking variant is the same as it's standard counterpart EXCEPT it has only two modes - ON or OFF the chair.
The Locking version allows for attachment to Tilting Seat Systems and installation of the vertical pole beyond 15° from vertical. It includes a Removable Outer Piece and Removable Frame Clamp Receiver which allows the Mount assembly to be ‘locked’ in place whilst on the wheelchair. Both options allow the Mount to be quickly removed from the wheelchair, although the ROP version is secure under seat tilt.
ROP Version Benefits:
- Safe for using with tilting seat system wheelchairs
- Safe for installing the vertical tube at angles greater than 15 degrees off vertical
- Locked in place on the wheelchair - simply twist the blue lock until you here it click in place; locked in!
- Simple to use and explain, it's either on the wheelchair or removed from the wheelchair; no intermediate function
Device Attachment
The mounted device is attached to a matched adapter plateor a specific cradle (purchased separately). It is attached to the Horizontal Tube of the mount assembly by means of the DAESSY Quick Release Base system that secures the device and allows for quick detaching of the device from the mount.
Notes
The DAESSY Rigid Mount with Bent-tube can support equipment that is heavy enough to unbalance an unoccupied wheelchair when swung out to the side. It is recommended to remove the device and/or mount before the wheelchair is vacated.
The DAESSY Rigid Mount with Bent-tube - Locking cannot be swung to the side. The mount must be unlocked and removed for transfers etc
