2. Description of the Related Art Such a vehicle elevating device is, for example,
While the user is sitting on the wheelchair as the object to be mounted, the wheelchair is placed on the object, and the wheelchair is moved from the ground side to the floor of the vehicle by raising and lowering the lifting frame and sliding the object. It is used for transferring on the upper side or conversely, transferring from the floor side of the vehicle to the ground.

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, since the rack is provided above the rail at the side edge of the mounting body, the rack is, of course, engaged with the rack. Since the pinion is also located above the rail, there is a possibility that the user's hand or clothing may come into contact with the rack or the pinion. Such racks and pinions are usually coated with oils such as grease for smoothing, so that if the user's hands or clothes come into contact, the oils will stain the clothes etc. was there.

[0005] In order to eliminate such disadvantages,
For example, it is conceivable that the rack and the pinion are positioned laterally outward of the rail and are separated from the mounting body. However, when such a configuration is adopted, the width of the mounting body is reduced by the width occupied by the rack and the pinion, and the mounting area of the mounted body may be reduced.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, and has as its object to reduce the width of the mounting body even if the rack or the pinion is oiled. Another object of the present invention is to provide a lifting device for a vehicle in which the hands and clothes of the user are less likely to be stained by the oils.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a vehicle having a lowered position on or near the ground and at the same or substantially the same height as the floor of a vehicle. An elevating frame configured to be able to move up and down in a parallel or substantially parallel posture to the ascending position, and a mounting body that is configured so that the mounted body can be mounted and that is slidably supported on the elevating frame. A rack for slidably driving the mounting body, and a rail for slidably guiding the mounting body are provided on a lateral side edge of the mounting body; A pinion for sliding drive that meshes with the rack;
And a vehicle elevating device provided with a plurality of idler wheels that engage with the rail, wherein the rail extends vertically in a slide direction of the mounting body, and a vertical wall thereof. A lower wall portion extending laterally outwardly from a lower portion of the portion, and an upper wall portion extending laterally outwardly from an upper portion of the vertical wall portion, wherein the rack has its tooth surface facing downward. , Disposed directly below the rail.

That is, since the rack is disposed immediately below the rail provided on the lateral side edge of the mounting body with the tooth surface facing downward, the rack is disposed laterally outside the rail. As in the case, the horizontal width of the mounting body is not reduced by the arrangement of the rack, and the rails located immediately above the rack are laterally outward from the upper and lower portions of the vertical wall portion extending in the vertical direction. The upper and lower wall portions extending laterally outward prevent the user's hands and clothes from coming into contact with the rack and the pinion that meshes with the rack. Therefore, even if oil such as grease is applied to the rack or the pinion, there is little risk that the oil or the like will stain hands or clothes.

[0010] Therefore, in addition to the above-mentioned upper and lower wall portions, the covering portion hanging down from the upper wall portion also contributes to preventing the clothes and the like from contacting the rack and the pinion.
Moreover, since the covering portion hanging down from the upper wall portion reinforces the rail, the strength of the rail which is supported by being engaged with the idler wheel on the lifting frame side is improved, and the mounting body by the lifting frame is improved. The support is stabilized, and the sliding operation of the mounting body with respect to the elevating frame can be performed smoothly.

Therefore, the U-shaped recessed portion of the cross section contributes not only to preventing the clothes and the like from contacting the rack and the pinion, but also the rails are further reinforced by the recessed portion, and the rack itself is further reduced. Also improves the strength. That is, since the rack having a certain length is inserted into the U-shaped concave portion, the concave portion prevents the rack from being deformed or twisted due to the occlusal operation with the pinion, and the pinion The sliding operation of the mounting body by the rotational driving of the rails is smooth, and the sliding operation of the mounting body with respect to the elevating frame can be further smoothly performed in cooperation with the smoothing due to the improvement in the strength of the rail.
