Abstract
The attachment including a Balancing Stability Frame and a Pivot Power Pack When the Balancing Stability Frame is attached to the Pivot Power Pack, the weight of a load that is being lifted is supported by the Pivot Power Pack wheels. When the Pivot Power Pack and Balancing Stability Frame are connected to a mobility scooter, a weight of the operator and a counterbalance attached to the Balancing Stability Frame is equally distributed across all wheels. This design minimizes the amount of weight supported by the scooter, which helps to preserve the durability of the scooter.
