Definitions

  • the invention relates to an erect wheelchair with a Chassis and a seat and a backrest having erection frame, which is pivotable on Chassis is articulated and a footrest, which at Transition from the sitting position to the upright position on the Floor is lowered.
  • EP-A-0 065 129 describes one Upright wheelchair with a chassis with two main wheels and two steering wheels and one on the chassis a drive mechanism relative to an axis of rotation swiveling erection frame.
  • the erection frame points a seat and a backrest.
  • the footrests are hinged to the seat in such a way that in the upright position of the Lie chair on the floor.
  • the raising and lowering of the An erection frame is used by an electric motor.
  • a similar erecting wheelchair, but not one Electric motor is described in EP-A-0 159 562 described.
  • There is a gas spring on this wheelchair provided that exerts a force on the erection frame to counteract the weight of the user and so the Support the user's uprighting movement. So that the User can erect, handles are provided on which the user can use to exert a force on the To reduce the seat weight.
  • a Blocking device By a Blocking device, the seat in the sitting position or an upright position are blocked. Because of this Raising wheelchair no electric motor and none to it Drive has the necessary batteries, it has one much smaller weight than that in EP-A-0 065 129 erecting wheelchair described.
  • the chair in accordance with FR-A-2,697,418 is in two parts Footrest articulated to seat 4. This is in turn articulated to a support, which in turn is articulated to the chassis. So there are three articulation points between the footrest and the chassis which are detrimental to stability.
  • the Footrest has at least one shaft, which in the Framework of the Chassis translational is guided, and that the erection frame over a Link with the shaft of the footrest articulated connected is.
  • the footrest has a guide in the chassis, it has one much higher stability than an articulated one Footrest. They are not detrimental to stability There are articulation points between the chassis and the footrest. The feared by users of erection chairs Pendulum movement of the footrest is avoided.
  • the shaft of the footrest is expediently in one Pipe section of the chassis guided telescopically. It poses the pipe section as an integral part of the chassis stationary part of a two-part footrest becomes a very stable management of the Footrest reached.
  • a separate footrest can be provided for each foot be. But a common footrest is advantageous Support of both feet of the chair user is provided and points a shaft on both sides, and the chassis has a pipe section on both sides to guide the corresponding one Shaft. Due to the double-sided guidance of the footrest achieved a particularly high stability.
  • the stand can have two arms on both sides Have lever, the shorter arm on the corresponding Link is articulated.
  • An advantageous embodiment provides that the piece of pipe that guides the shaft of the footrest serves, in the upper part a slot for one from the side Shaft projecting pin on which the Link is articulated. That’s what happens Link to lie close to the seat and is in the Use of the chair by the user practically looks withdrawn. The lifting wheelchair therefore does not awaken anyone overly technical impression. But it would also be possible the link further down where the stem from the Pipe piece protrudes to link.
  • the erecting wheelchair 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 consists in a conventional manner of the chassis 11 with a A pair of front wheels 13 and a pair of rear wheels 15, one Seat 17 and a backrest 19 erecting frame 21, and a footrest 23 with a footrest 24.
  • the chassis 11 is a tubular construction with two Side frame 25, which by struts 27, 28 together are connected.
  • the chassis 11 is therefore a stable structure.
  • the erection frame 21 is articulated at 32 on the chassis 11.
  • the erection frame 21 supports the seat 17 and the backrest 19 and is designed in a known manner so that the backrest 19 practically the same in almost every position of the chair vertical position.
  • the erection movement from the position of Figure 1 in the Position of Figure 2 is by at least one gas spring 33rd supported.
  • the control means for releasing and blocking the Gas springs are not shown.
  • the handles, which do not allow the user to stand up marked as not for understanding the invention are important.
  • the chassis 11 on the front on both Sides has a pipe section 35, in which a shaft 37 of the Footrest 23 is guided telescopically.
  • the pipe section 35 can be part of the tubular structure of the side frame 25.
  • a telescopic guide would also be other guides conceivable, e.g. a dovetail guide.
  • the erection frame 21 is connected to the shaft 37 via a connecting link 39 Footrest connected in an articulated manner in such a way that the footrest 23 when the erecting wheelchair moves upright is moved.
  • the erection frame 21 has one two-armed lever 41, the shorter arm 43 with the Joint 45 is articulated on the connecting member 39.
  • the Link 39 in turn is on a hinge 47 on Articulated shaft 37.
  • a pin serves as the joint 47. This Pin 47 protrudes through a slot 49 in the upper part of the Pipe section 35.
