Description

La présente invention concerne les fauteuils roulants pour handicapés.The present invention relates to wheelchairs for the disabled.

Comme chaque utilisateur, je me suis heurté à de nombreux problèmes. Le dispositif selon l'invention, me permet d'avoir un fauteuil très maniable, grâce à sa largeur réduite de 20 à 25 cm du fauteuil traditionnel.Like every user, I encountered many problems. The device according to the invention allows me to have a very handy chair, thanks to its reduced width from 20 to 25 cm from the traditional chair.

Comme le fauteuil traditionnel, sa structure est en tube aluminium et de différente largeur selon la corpulence de l'utilisateur.Like the traditional armchair, its structure is in aluminum tube and of different width according to the size of the user.

La translation (avant arrière), des deux leviers amovibles placés entre les jambes de l'utilisateur permettent de diriger et de mouvoir le fauteuil. La direction s'obtient en actionnant qu'un levier sur les deux.The translation (front rear), of the two removable levers placed between the legs of the user allow to direct and move the chair. The steering is obtained by operating only one lever on both.

Le droit pour tourneur à gauche.The right for left turner.

En référence à ces dessins.With reference to these drawings.

Le fauteuil comporte une structure métallique (I) fixée sur quatre roues.The armchair has a metallic structure (I) fixed on four wheels.

Deux roux folles (2), gonflables d'un diamètre de 250 mn à l'avant, et deux roues motrices (3), gonflables d'un diamètre de 400 mn à l'arrière.Two crazy reds (2), inflatable with a diameter of 250 min at the front, and two driving wheels (3), inflatable with a diameter of 400 min at the rear.

Le cadre (i) peut recevoir deux assises, une pliante (4), plus pratique pour le transport et une matelassée (5), pour un plus grand confort. The frame (i) can receive two seats, a folding (4), more practical for transport and a padded (5), for greater comfort.

Comme chaque fauteuil pour handicapé, celui-ci est équipé de deux repose-pied amovibles et pliants (6).Like each wheelchair, it is equipped with two removable and folding footrests (6).

Les deux leviers placés entre les jambes et dans l'axe des bras de l'utilisateur, ont une partie démontables (7), de façon à ce que l'on puisse monter et descendre facilement du fauteuil.The two levers placed between the legs and in the axis of the user's arms, have a removable part (7), so that one can get on and off the chair easily.

L'on peut aussi supprimer les leviers (7) lorsque le patient se fait pousser par une autre personne.You can also remove the levers (7) when the patient is being pushed by another person.

Les deux autres parties des leviers (8) sont ajustées sur un axe (9) transversal et solidaire au cadre (1)
Sur chacun des deux leviers (8) est fixé une biellette (10) qui permet de changer le mouvement de translation en mouvement de rotation d'une couronne dentée (11). The two other parts of the levers (8) are adjusted on an axis (9) transverse and integral with the frame (1)
On each of the two levers (8) is fixed a link (10) which makes it possible to change the translational movement into the rotational movement of a toothed ring (11).

Chacune des deux couronnes dentées (11) est accouplée par une chaîne (12) aux couronnes de roues arrières (13), dont le nombre de dents est deux fois plus important, ceci de façon à ce que la force exercée sur les leviers, soit confortable à tous âges.Each of the two toothed rings (11) is coupled by a chain (12) to the rear wheel rings (13), the number of teeth of which is twice as large, this so that the force exerted on the levers is comfortable for all ages.

Sachant qu'un va et vient du levier (7) correspond à un demi tour de roue.Knowing that a back and forth of the lever (7) corresponds to a half turn of the wheel.

Le frein de stationnement est obtenu par blocage des deux leviers (8) sur le cadre (1), par rotation de la manette (14). The parking brake is obtained by blocking the two levers (8) on the frame (1), by rotation of the lever (14).
