  • Patent number: 5168889
    Abstract: The invention provides a simple removable and storable weather and sun covering for a wheelchair. Two embodiments include a soft cover version which can be dismantled and stowed in a container on the wheelchair and a hard top version which can be easily removed and stored when not needed. Common to both covers is a cover support clamp bracket uniquely suited for securing a variety of covers and cover frames to the frame of most any wheelchair. The cover support clamp bracket can be left on the wheelchair even when not in use or easily removed when not needed. A tubular extension fitting the clamping bracket increases wheelchair cover stability. No special frame work retainers are required in the framework of the soft cover such as corner joints or collars as seen in other cover frameworks.
