Folding Mount
 |
The DAESSY Folding Mount as the name implies can be folded away from the user.
- The two tubes of the Mount are connected by a flexible joint and except for this feature it is identical to the Rigid Mount.
- The flexible joint allows the horizontal tube, with the device attached or removed, to be lifted up to the side until the two tubes are parallel in a straight-up orientation and then rotated down until parallel to the vertical tube alongside the wheelchair.
- When folded and removed from the wheelchair the Folding Mount forms a more compact structure than the Rigid Mount.
- The DAESSY Folding Mount ? DFM2 consists of two lengths of stainless steel tube joined by a Folding Mechanism.
- The Horizontal Tube can be lifted through an angle of 90? and rotated down 180? to place the Horizontal Tube and Vertical Tube parallel along the side of the wheelchair.
- The complete mount can be removed leaving only the Frame Clamp assembly attached to the wheelchair frame; in its folded configuration the DFM2 is a very compact unit for storage or transportation.
- The mount is supported on the wheelchair by a Frame Clamp Assembly, which is permanently attached to either the left or right side of the wheelchair.
- For the standard DFM2 the Frame Clamp Assembly is composed of a Frame Clamp Inner Piece and a Frame Clamp Outer Piece.
- The Inner Piece is clamped to the wheelchair frame while the Outer Piece holds the vertical mount tube.
- An Index Clamp (IC1) secured around the lower end of the Vertical Tube engages with a positioning pin on the Frame Clamp Outer Piece to position the tube and prevent rotation.
