I'm looking around and the Hoyer Transfer Hoist looks popular but it takes a fairly substantial canvas piece that is what wraps around you and is used to lift you. Looks like you'd need to log roll left, tuck it under, log roll right and tuck it and then log roll back to your regular position and then clip 2 chains into the Hoyer lift. Looks like some work.
I like to create things. I bet putting on a rock climbing harness (minimalist version) would work better and then just clip one single clip to one chain and then pump the hydraulic handle to lift yourself up. So maybe something like the Hoyer with a little modification would let you manage it yourself.

The only thing is the lift itself is kinda large so I'm not sure how you'd keep it close by.
Alternatively, if it was just used at your bed you could keep it there. I think that may be the more reasonable idea and still incorporating the rock climbing like harness with one clip so no matter what position you're in you can just clip and go.
For out and about in your chair, have you tried seat belts with your chair before? They make several types of seat belts that just fasten to your chair and keep you put.

There's also a chest harness that clips in as well to the belt.
