JPS609937B2 - Wheelchair fixing device for vehicles for the physically disabled - Google Patents

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a wheelchair fixing device that is used by being attached to a vehicle steel for the exclusive use of a physically disabled person using a wheelchair.

Traditionally, when transporting a physically disabled person who uses a wheelchair, they are seated in the wheelchair.However, in ordinary passenger cars or buses, there is no device to secure the wheelchair. I had no choice but to hold back.

In view of this situation, vehicle steel for buses and other vehicles exclusively for the disabled has been developed, but the means for securing the wheelchair in this wheelchair is by using tension members installed on the floor, wall, or ceiling of the vehicle. The tension member is hooked onto the frame of the wheelchair from the front, back, left and right, and is fixed in a tensioned state. Therefore, these tension members may be crawling on the steel floor of the car, or hanging down from the wall or ceiling, and may get in the way when the wheelchair is being put in, or when securing the wheelchair, the tension may be increased here and there. It is necessary to perform tension fixing work while adjusting the length of the member, which is a time-consuming and extremely troublesome work.

Furthermore, since the fixing means is balanced fixation using tension, there is also a drawback that stability is lacking. The present invention aims to eliminate the drawbacks of the above-mentioned systems, and its purpose is to provide a wheelchair fixing device that has a simple structure and can provide stable fixation by eliminating the need for complicated counterbalancing fixing means. It is something to do. The present invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the illustrated embodiments. Reference numeral 1 denotes a fixing device main body, and the fixing device main body includes a pair of high and low frames 2 and 3 made by bending pipes into a U-shape, and a pair of frames 2 and 3 to which a headrest is attached. The main body is composed of pipes 4, 5 and a wheel chair stopper member 6,
The above-mentioned pair of pipes 4 and 5 are arranged upright at an appropriate interval, and a low frame 2 is mounted on the front side around the pipes.
A high frame 3 is provided on the back side, and the corresponding portions of the pipes 4 and 5 are fixed by, for example, welding means.

Then, a stopper member 6 is arranged at the lower front side, and this stopper member and the lower sides of both frames 2 and 3 are fixed to the force plates 7 and 8 by welding or bolts, etc., to integrate the fixing device main body 1. Form. Furthermore, pipes 4 and 5
It is also possible to use the crosspiece 9 as a bridge to secure the lower end of the frame.
A rail 18 is provided on the lower center of the fixing device main body formed in this manner, that is, on the stopper member 6, and a slide portion 11 that slides while engaged on the rail is provided, and a screw hole is provided on the slide portion. A bearing plate 13 is provided in an upright manner to rotatably connect the screws 2 and to receive the joys and sorrows of the screwdriver.A handle plate 4 is provided at the rear end of the screwdriver.

And slide part Murashige 1 has a pair of adjustable lengths.
A hook 5, a hook 6, ie, a hook 7, which connects to the wheelchair, is provided. In addition, the code in the figure is Tomi 8.
, 28' is a hinge attached to the force plate 7 on the other side, and only one lower part is fixed to the Kuratai floor surface through the hinge, and the other lower part can be engaged and disengaged by an appropriate engagement holding member. Fix it like this. Therefore, "the fixing Z-layer main body 1 has hinges 9 and 2.
It is attached via Q so that it can be raised and lowered laterally. The wheelchair fixing device of the present invention having the above-mentioned configuration is "located in a fixed state on the floor of the vehicle steel, and hooks two hooks, that is, the engaging members 17 and 18 on the frame 22 of the two-piece wheelchair," 4 to move the slide member 11 backward and attract the wheelchair 2 ~ the rear large wheels 2 of the wheelchair
3 comes into contact with the stopper member 6 and the low frame 2, and 2
The wheelchair 21 is fixed to the fixing device main body 1 in a stable state 2 by point support.

And pipe 4? Attach an appropriate headrest 24 to the wheelchair to hold the head of the physically handicapped person, and if necessary, attach fixing belts 25 and 26 to the main body of the fixing device, and use the fixing belts to hold the disabled person's head in the wheelchair. It may be fixed to
As explained above, the wheelchair fixing device according to the present invention includes a fixing device main body of a frame structure that is fixed to the floor surface of a vehicle steel by an appropriate means, and a tightenable engagement member attached to the main body. Since the wheelchair is fixed to the main body of the fixing device via the engaging member, there is no need for tension members for counterbalance fixing from the floor, wall, and ceiling, making the configuration simple. .

In addition, the wheels of the wheelchair are highly stable because they abut at two points, the stopper member and the low frame.Moreover, since the fixing device body is fixed to the floor surface of the wheel, fixing the wheelchair is even more stable. Furthermore, when fixing the wheelchair, the engaging member is attached to the frame of the chair and the stripes are formed by turning the handle, which has excellent effects such as making the fixing work extremely simple.
