Wheelchair Lifting Mechanism

Description of the Solution

The solution uses a modified car jack as a lifting mechanism to raise a person more than 30 cm, supporting up to 130 kg. A padded seat is securely mounted on the jack, with safety belts and optional rotation for easy transfer into the car. The system includes a stable base to prevent tipping and can be operated manually or with a motor. It's low-cost, portable, and doesn't require permanent vehicle modifications.
