Feeding aid
The client has insufficient limb movement to feed himself. The equipment must fit onto his wheelchair tray.
The lower left arm is supported by a gutter which the client can raise and lower by two push-buttons operated by his left hand, enabling him to raise food to his mouth. The food dish fits onto an inclined turntable which he can rotate by a third push-button so as to access all the food in the dish.
The client can now feed himself, using his remaining muscle movement.
