Securement system for a rollable mobility aid

An apparatus including a securement apparatus for a rollable mobility aid with a frame that includes a broad engaging expanse and rollers, which aid is located within a vehicle, comprising:

• upright capture structure fixedly attached to the interior of such vehicle in a receiving position, and including a receiving section having a broad vertical region for receiving the engaging expanse, the receiving section further including a selectively actuable securement/release mechanism for securing the engaging expanse when there is engagement between the engaging expanse and the receiving section, with such engagement promoting securement of the aid in the vehicle;
• and
• wherein the capture structure includes a substructure that provides selective rotational movement of the capture structure about its vertical axis, and a substructure that provides selective translational movement of the capture structure with respect to its receiving position, thus to allow for desired adjustment of the capture structure to accommodate receipt of the engaging expanse by the securement/release mechanism at various positions and angles depending upon the direction from which such aid is rolled toward the system.

An apparatus including securement apparatus for a rollable mobility aid with a frame and rollers, which aid is located adjacent surrounding structure, comprising:

• plural arm members, each with first and second ends, and with each said first end being rigidly attached to the frame, and each said second end formed with an aperture;
• and
• upright receiver structure fixedly attached to such surrounding structure in a receiving position, and including a receiving section constructed to receive the second ends of said arm members, and the receiving section further including a selectively actuable engagement/release mechanism for securing the second ends of said arm members to engage the arm members with the receiving section, with such engagement promoting securement of the aid relative to the surrounding structure to fix the second ends of said arm members in the receiving section.
