transport chair
Attendant-propelled mobility seat
A transport chair is a lightweight wheelchair designed to be pushed by an attendant rather than propelled by the occupant.
It typically has smaller wheels than a standard wheelchair, making it more compact and easier to fold for travel but impossible to self-propel.
Transport chairs are common in airports, hospitals, and for short outings: The aide brought a transport chair to take her to the car.
