Abstract: A rollable user-support device comprising a rigid frame with first legs and second legs, each with a rollable and swivelable wheel, a seat with a seat folding mechanism and/or a seat manipulation mechanism. The seat manipulation mechanism can be operable to move the seat, with a user seated thereon, between a lower rearward seating position and an elevated forward seating position, and the seat folding mechanism can be operable to move the seat between the elevated forward seating position and a folded position, at least one of the devices being connected to a swivel prevention mechanism associated with the first wheels. The device can constitute a bi-directional rollable user-support device operable in three modes.

Abstract: A mobility scooter control system includes a remote control console having a wireless transmitter and switches. A status detection circuit is integrated with the switches. The status detection circuit emits a pulse on a regular cycle. After the pulse passes the respective switch following a change in state of the switch, a wireless transmission is sent. A controller is electronically connected to a motor. The control system has a regular operation mode in which direction of movement and speed limit functions are responsive to instructions inputted to the controller, and, in the absence of user instruction, the controller does not instruct movement of the motor. The control system has a Sabbath operation mode in which the direction of movement and speed limit functions are responsive only to signals from the wireless transmitter, and, in the absence of user instruction, the controller instructs the motor to continuously cycle backward and forward.
