An apparatus having an upper frame adapted to at least partially encircle a person; a lower frame; a scissor mechanism for coupling the upper frame to the lower frame, wherein the distance between the upper frame and the lower frame can be varied by adjusting the scissor mechanism; and a telescoping rod coupled to the scissor mechanism for locking the scissor mechanism, wherein the distance between the upper frame and the lower frame is locked by the telescoping rod.
1. An apparatus comprising:
an upper frame adapted to at least partially encircle a person;
a lower frame adapted to at least partially encircle the person;
a first scissor mechanism coupled to the upper frame;
a second scissor mechanism coupling the first scissor mechanism to the lower frame, wherein a distance between the upper frame and the lower frame can be varied by adjusting the first scissor mechanism and the second scissor mechanism;
a plurality of attachments coupled to said upper frame; and
a seat coupled to the plurality of attachments via a plurality of straps.
2. An apparatus comprising:
an upper frame;
a lower frame;
a first scissor mechanism coupled to the upper frame;
a second scissor mechanism coupling the first scissor mechanism to the lower frame, wherein a distance between the upper frame and the lower frame can be varied by adjusting the first scissor mechanism and the second scissor mechanism;
at least four wheels coupled to the lower frame;
a seat removably coupled to at least one support element selected from the group consisting of: the upper frame, the lower frame, the first scissor, the second scissor, wherein a seat elevation is located between the upper frame and the lower frame; and
a lower frame cover coupled to the lower frame, wherein the seat elevation, the lower frame cover, and the at least four wheels are configured to provide stability against the apparatus reaching an unstable angle with respect to a floor when a person is seated in the seat.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 further comprising:
