Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for securing a wheel chair and a fitting for mounting on a wheel chair; the device is of the kind stated in the introductory part of claim 1, and the fitting is of the kind stated in the introductory part of claim 12.
  • Devices and fittings of this kind are especially used in securing wheel chairs in cars and busses, so that the wheel chair users can use these means of transport without leaving the wheel chair.
  • the devices can be secured to a base such as a car floor in separate fasteners or floor rails mounted on the base, designed to match the devices.
  • floor rails can be of various designs, for securing seats in busses and aeroplanes and for securing cargo in aircrafts and freight containers. They often have the shape of an embedded rail with a longitudinal, upwardly open T-shaped slot, which with regular intervals have openings in the full width of the slot so that bolts with a T-shaped head can be inserted and extracted through the openings.
  • a device of the previous mentioned type is disclosed, in the form of a set of straps with corresponding floor fasteners, where the wheel chair is clamped against the base by means of the straps while it is supported on its own wheels. Thereby the straps are directed from areas on the frame of the wheel chair and sloping outwards and downwards. No adjustment of the wheel chair is necessary.
  • the device is manufactured by Gustav Bruns GmbH & Co KG, Apen (DE).
  • a similiar device is disclosed in the form of straps for securing in floor rails.
  • the end of the straps pointing towards the base are provided with claws, which are lowered into the floor rails, where they are secured by being moved a little in the pulling direction of the strap. Neither here an adjustment of the wheel chair is necessary.
  • the device is manufactured by C. N. Unwin, Ltd., Somerset (GB).
  • a device of the previous mentioned type is disclosed, in the form of two toothed bars with each two claws, which can engage a floor rail or a part of the frame of the wheel chair, respectively.
  • the claws are tightened in the direction against each other, whereby a catch in the upper claw is cooperating with the teeth of the bar.
  • the wheel chair is clamped against the base by the bars, while it is supported on its own wheels.
  • the bars are generally vertical and exert their force in that direction.
  • the device do not demand an adjustment of the wheel chair and is manufactured by C. N. Unwin, Ltd., Somerset (GB).
  • a similiar device where the bars are designed with a thread and the claws are tightened in the direction against each other by means of this thread.
  • the lower claw of the device can cooperate with the floor rails or separate floor fasteners.
  • the device do not demand an adjustment of the wheel chair and is manufactured by SN Konsult, Gävle (SE).
  • the device comprise a set of claws consisting of two upper and two lower claws and is secured to the base.
  • the lower claws are fixed and the upper claws are movable by means of an electromotor.
  • a fitting for the device is to be mounted on the wheel chair in the shape of a bow, which the claws can grab securing the wheel chair.
  • the device is manufactured by Handi-Norge AS, Skjetten (NO).
  • a drawback to these devices, which do not need adjustment of the wheel chair, is that the chair is only secured by the influence of downwards or slanting downwards directed forces, so the wheels of the chair must provide the necessary reaction.
  • a very major drawback to the devices which do not demand an adjustment of the wheel chair is that it is up to the operators to decide how the straps or the bars are to be arranged on the frame of the wheel chair, in that sense that the embodiment of the device do not dictate placement in certain areas of the chair.
  • the claws of the bar can be placed on or near the axises of the rear wheels of the chair, having the very dangerous effect that the chair is generally free to tilt backwards around the axis, resulting in the users head hitting the floor very hard.
  • US Patent No. 4,623,289 discloses a device for securing a wheel chair to a base such as the floor of a bus.
  • the wheel chair is equipped with longitudinally extending, transversely spaced plates having cut-outs from their front ends and in the floor, a mechanism is buried, comprising a bail rod controlled to swing from a position near the floor upwardly and rearwardly against a transverse back-stop extending upwards from the floor in the width of the wheel chair to a height just below the framework of the wheel chair.
  • the present invention provides a device and a fitting of the types stated by way of introduction without the above described drawbacks, which especially are suited for securing collapsible wheel chairs, very simple to operate for an assistant and operable by the wheel chair users themselves, where the wheels of the chair do not have to transmit any reaction originated in the securing of the chair, and where the forces of securing are transformed to the wheel chair in the most appropriate way.
  • the device by means of two sets of jaws, mutually spaced crosswise to the direction of travel of the wheel chair, clamp the fittings, mounted in pairs on the wheel chair near its wheel suspensions, the jaws and the engaging means of the fittings being designed with cross sections not varying in the direction of travel of the wheel chair, a very effective transmission of forces and torques occurs from the base through the device and the fittings to the most sturdy parts of the frame of the wheel chair, this occuring for both collapsible as well as non-collapsible wheel chairs.
  • the fittings can engage the jaws by simply advancing the wheel chair in its direction of travel, whether this be done forwards or backwards.
  • the wheel chair can be advanced to engage the device from both ends of the device and that the wheel chair can be advanced through the device engaging this, and further on to or from another similiar device.
  • the device especially qualify for securing wheel chairs which cost design of guiding means and carriageway is obtained together with the device being least possible disturbing for coming and going on the base.
  • Figure 1 discloses a wheel chair 1 secured to the base 2 of a minibus or a van. Parts of the underframe of the wheel chair have been left out in the figure for the sake of clarity. On the wheel chair 1 two fittings 3 are mounted, which are in force-transmitting connection with the shafts 7 for each of those wheels 8 of the chair supporting the main part of its weight, in this case the rear wheels of the chair.
  • the device 4 On the base 2 a device 4 is fastened, which clamps the fittings 3 and hence the wheel chair 1.
  • the device 4 is designed with a low constructional height and is provided with a casing 9 with a rounded shape to be least possible disturbing for coming and going on the base 2, when a wheel chair is not secured in the device.
  • a planar part 6 ending along both sides 12 of the device in jaws, which can engage and fix the fittings 3.
  • the jaws and cooperating parts of the fittings 3 have uniform cross sections in a direction parallel with the central longitudinal axis 10 of the device 4 in the plane of the part 6, and is designed to engage and de-engage by advancing the wheel chair in its direction of travel 11, or the opposite direction.
  • the direction of travel 11 is parallel to the central longitudinal axis 10 of the device 4.
  • On top of the device is also sloping parts 5 along the centre line 10 intended for ascending and descending when a wheel chair is advanced over the device without engaging it. Together with the part 6, the parts 5 constitute a carriageway over the device along its longitudinal axis 10. Hereby, the wheel chair's one pair of wheels 13 can roll over the track 5, 6, while the other pair of wheels roll alongside the device.
  • the wheel chair 1 can also be advanced through the device 4, the fittings 3 engaging in the jaws of the device and de-engaging again. Both ways are useful for example when several devices are placed after each other for holding several wheel chairs, because a wheel chair can be advanced over or through the first devices to a device further up front.
  • the device 4 can be mounted on the base 2 with fastening means as quick-acting clamps, which simply can be loosened and tightened again, so that the device for example can be dismounted and fastened to the wall of the bus or van, when the bus or the van is not used for transportation of wheel chairs.
  • fastening means as quick-acting clamps, which simply can be loosened and tightened again, so that the device for example can be dismounted and fastened to the wall of the bus or van, when the bus or the van is not used for transportation of wheel chairs.
  • Figures 2-5 are referred to.
  • a plate 6 On the top side of the device 4 is by means of bolts 25 mounted a plate 6, which is folded at the sides 12 of the device, forming upper, stationary jaws 15, each comprising a downward flange 14.
  • These upper jaws together with the lower movable jaws 18 constitute two sets of jaws 26.
  • the sets of jaws extend in a direction parallel with the longitudinal axis 10 of the device and in this direction have an extension corresponding to the extension of the plate 6, cf.
  • the upper jaws 15 can be designed with a very low height, cf. Figure 4-5, without becoming too weak and hereby they contribute considerably to the reduction of the constructional height of the device.
  • the lower jaws 18 are designed with an upwards sloping face 19, hereby getting a wedge-shaped cross section, see Figure 5.
  • the lower jaws 18 are movable in the direction 29, being guided in this direction by guides 31-34 cooperating with the faces of the jaws 18.
  • the jaws are designed with slits 30 in the direction 29.
  • the bolts 25 extend through these slits 30 providing stops limiting the movement of the jaws 18 in the direction 29. With this design the lower jaws 18 also contribute to the low constructional height of the device 4.
  • An actuator 22 known per se, which can be of any suitable type, is mounted to the base plate 35 of the device 4 by means of a bolt 31.
  • the actuator has a telescoping rod 27, moving back and forth in the direction 28, when the actuator is operating.
  • the rod 27 is connected by means of a bolt 32 to a slide 21 guided in the direction 28 of guides not shown.
  • Four arms 20 are hinged with their first end to the slide, and in their second end they are hinged to the lower movable jaws 18.
  • the slide 21 follows the movement of the actuator, and because the first ends of the arms 20 follows the slide in the direction 28, the other ends of the arms move the jaws 18 in the direction 29.
  • the actuator 22 can be provided with a force-sensitive release device stopping the actuator when it encounters a certain amount of resistance.
  • a force-sensitive release device stopping the actuator when it encounters a certain amount of resistance.
  • Figure 4 shows the one set of jaws 26 in its open state, the lower movable jaw 18 being pulled far back (to the left in Figure 4).
  • the corresponding positions of the arms 20 and the slide 21 are shown in the figure with a dotted line, these parts here being shown out of their plane.
  • figure 5 shows the set of jaws 26 in its closed state, the lower movable jaw 18 being fully advanced (to the right in figure 5).
  • Figure 4 shows that the opening 17, which the fitting 3 is to be inserted into, is relatively small, and that the jaw 15 is relatively little protruding relative to the outer shape of the device, and therefore present the least possible disturbance for coming and going on the base 2.
  • the device 4 has the same cross section in the whole length of the jaws 15 and 18, corresponding to figures 4 and 5, cf. figures 2 and 3.
  • the wheel chair 1 By clamping, the wheel chair 1 is raised due to the fittings 3 being pushed upwards by the upper sloping face of the lower jaws 18.
  • the wheels of the chair are loaded due to securing with the device 4 and the fittings 3.
  • the distance between the sets of jaws corresponds to at least 60% and preferably 70-85% of the track of the wheel chair.
  • the casing of the device 9 (see figure 2) is in a horizontal plane designed with generally circular arc shaped edges 36, with a radius a little greater than the width of the device and corresponding to the track of the wheel chair. This makes shunting with the wheel chair easier when it is advanced to engage the fittings 3 in the set of jaws 26, because then the one wheel of the chair will typically move in a circular arc with the mentioned radius.
  • the casing 9 is also designed with entrance parts 16, which operate as guiding means for the fittings 3 when the wheel chair is advanced to engage the fittings 3 in the sets of jaws 26. Together these arrangements cause essential facilitations for the wheel chair driver, and also allow the wheel chair user himself to advance the wheel chair to engage the fittings 3 in the sets of jaws 26. If the operating controls (not shown) to control the device 4 are arranged within a close range for the wheel chair user, the device and the fittings according to the present invention can therefore be used by the wheel chair user by self-service.
  • Figures 6-9 disclose a fitting 3 to be arranged on a wheel chair, the fitting being fastened in the sets of jaws 26 in the device 4.
  • the fitting 3 consists of an upper part 37, shown in figures 6 and 7, and a lower part 38, shown in figures 8 and 9.
  • the fitting 3 is meant to be used in pairs, one upper part 37 and one lower part 38 being used in each side of the wheel chair.
  • the upper part 37 can be designed individually for each type of wheel chair and can appropiately be manufactured and delivered by the wheel chair manufacturer.
  • the lower part 38 comprise the engaging means 39 cooperating with the device 4 and can appropiately be manufactured and delivered by the manufacturer of the device 4.
  • the interface between the upper part 37 and the lower part 38 will be a kind of interface between the areas of responsibility of the two manufacturers, as well as the lower part 38 can be manufactured as a standard component.
  • Figures 6 and 7 disclose an embodiment of the upper part 37 of the fitting 3, which here is adapted to mount on a certain, per se known type of wheel chair (not shown).
  • a fastening part 43 on top of the upper part 37 comprise a circular hole 44 and two circular bosses 45.
  • the wheels 8 of the chair (cf. figure 1) are designed with stagnant shafts 7, which can be fastened in horizontally extending, circular bushings in the frame of the wheel chair.
  • the bushings are provided in the frame of the wheel chair several holes are provided vertically above each other, designed so that the bushings each can be mounted in one of these holes, according to which height of the chair is desired.
  • Each of the bushings are provided with an exterior thread with a corresponding nut and a outward collar in one end.
  • the fitting's upper part 37 is fastened on this type of wheel chair in that the two bosses 45 are engaged each in one of said holes in the frame of the wheel chair, and the bushing is mounted in a hole in between, being plunged through the hole 44 in the upper part, and thereby fastens this by means of its collar, when the nut is tightened. Finally the shaft 7 of the wheel 8 is mounted in the bushing.
  • the fitting is hereby sturdily and firmly secured to the frame of the wheel chair.
  • the lower part 38 of the fitting 3 consists of a generally triangular sheet body 41.
  • engaging means 39 designed to be clamped in the set of jaws 26 of the device 4.
  • the engaging means have form of a horizontally extending sheet member 40 with an upwards directed flange 42, which both are elongated in the direction of travel 11 (which in figure 9 extends towards the plane of the paper, perpendicular to it).
  • the cross section of the engaging means (see figure 9) not varying in the direction of travel, they can be inserted into the opening 17 between the jaws 15, 18 in the set of jaws 26 in the device 4 by advancing the wheel chair 1 in the direction of travel 11.
  • the lower part 38 can be releasably fastened to the upper part 37. Hereby it can conveniently be removed when the wheel chair is not to be fixed by the device 4 and the wheel chair is therefore not loaded with additional weight represented by the lower part 38, the appearance of the wheel chair being as well not marred by the relatively vast lower part 38.
  • a circular piece 46 is mounted on the upper part 37, which piece may be shaped with a chamfer as shown in figures 6 and 7.
  • This piece 46 fits in a circular hole 48 in the lower part 38.
  • a fitting 47 is also mounted further up the upper part 37 with a downward flange 49, behind which there is a cavity, where a boss 50 is arranged, being designed as half of a circular cylinder with a horizontal axis of symmetry.
