Abstract

A wheelchair restraint for use in a vehicle, comprising: first and second spools 15 arranged to be fixed rotatably to the vehicle, for each spool, a member 1 being capable of being wound onto the spool, connected at a captive end to the spool and being provided at the other, free end, with attachment means 16 for attaching the windable member to a wheelchair, in which there is provided a common drive means 2 spaced from each spool 15 and arranged to apply, in use, a force to the spools 15 so as to act to wind the members 1 onto the spools 15. The restraint can further comprise a further motor (55, figure 6) arranged so as to be able to retract the windable members 1, the further motor being capable of exerting sufficient force on the members 1 so as to be able to load a wheelchair carrying a person into the vehicle. Also, the common drive means 2 can be arranged such that, in use, the force applied by the members 1 on the wheelchair is sufficient to coil the members on the spools 15 as the wheelchair is moved into the vehicle but is not sufficient to pull the wheelchair into the vehicle.
