Abstract

An oxygen tank holder of a suitable fabric material includes a pouch for holding an oxygen tank, and which pouch is strapped at its upper and lower ends to the back of a wheelchair. The straps are adjustable to accommodate various size wheelchairs and so that the pouch can be displaced away from the center of the wheelchair to avoid interfering with the back of the user of the chair, as is desireable.
