Support for disabled children and adults

Atubi provides postural support for safer vehicle transport

The Atubi Car Restraint provides structured trunk, pelvic and leg support for children and adults requiring additional postural stability while travelling.

How Atubi helps

Many individuals cannot maintain safe seated posture during vehicle travel. Atubi provides structured support for passengers to remain secured in their seats for a safe journey.

How It Supports The Body

  • The Chest Harness stabilises trunk and upper body and helps maintain upright posture. 
  • The Leg Harness prevents the hips from sliding forward and helps to stabilise the pelvis and legs.

Who It’s For?

  • Disabled children and adults
  • Age 2 years and older
  • People that need trunk / pelvic postural stability for travelling

It’s important that the vehicle safety belt is always used together with the Atubi Car Restraint.

Installing the Atubi Car Restraint

Feed the backrest straps between the seat and backrest

Simple setup for your vehicle

  1. Push the bottom straps of the backrest through the gap between the car seat and backrest, then fasten the buckles and tighten until the system fits firmly. (fig. 1A, fig. 1B)
  2. Adjust the height of the transverse restraining belts if necessary. (fig. 2)
  3. Fasten the leg harness if required. For a child, press the Velcro flap of the leg harness against the Velcro on the backrest. For adults, use the two D-strings attached to the bottom of the backrest for extra support. Cover all straps with the soft backseat cover. (fig. 3)
  4. Secure the occupant with the chest harness and leg harness. (fig. 4)
  5. Fasten the vehicle safety belt — this remains compulsory whenever the restraint is used. (fig. 5)
