Other Assistive Technology

The Drink-Partner Drinking System is an assistive drinking aid that provides hands free drinking for those in a manual wheelchair, or a powered wheelchair that has a tubular frame or handles. For those who use a powered wheelchair with a slide-track mounting system see part 6050, the Drink-Partner for Slide-TrackIt will accommodate the mounting needs for that variety of wheelchairs.

The Drink-Partner consists of a 25-ounce water bottle, and a cup holder. The bottle has integrated into its cap, a vibration resistant 24-inch long flex tube that holds the (36-inch long) drink tube that carries the liquid. The cup holder has a universal clamp that can be attached to tubes (or rails) with a diameter from 7/8 inch to 1-1/2 inches. The Drink-Partner is most commonly clamped to the handle of the wheelchair and the flexible tube holder allows the tip of the drinking tube to be positioned very close to the user’s mouth. Other locations on a wheelchair frame are also functional. The Drink-Partner is sold with a drink tube already installed in the bottle and an extra drink tube is provided. Additional drink tubes (MtP Part No. 6080) can be purchased separately in case the drink tube is damaged or becomes contaminated.
