Chin Boom Mounting System

Powered & manual swing away chin control mechanism

The newly developed Chin Boom mounting system by Switch-It allows both variants, the mechanical or the powered swing away arm, to be adapted to a single universal interface attached at the backrest. The specially designed swing away mechanism incorporates a friction clutch that provides emergency swing away possibility and force reduction to the gear box.

Manual & Powered Chin Boom

The Chin Boom is a long L-shaped rod with a clamp to mount joysticks like the VersaGuide or MicroGuide. The chin boom mounts to a bracket on the backrest. This setup provides the user with chin or mouth control without wearing a harness, and provides for easy transferring of the user. It's available in a manual (shown on the left) and powered version.
