Definitions

  • the invention relates in particular to a wheelchair whose wheels are made up of at least two fixed wheels and at least one swivelling wheel, for example two rear wheels and two swivelling front wheels.
  • the wheelchair in question may be a wheelchair provided with driven rear wheels or a self-propelled wheelchair or an attendant-propelled wheelchair.
  • the invention further particularly relates to a wheelchair having a so-called "central" legrest, wherein the legs of a wheelchair user are supported by one legrest situated in a centre longitudinal plane of the wheelchair, close to a front edge of the framework and extending downward to within a short distance from the road surface. Consequently, a central legrest distinguishes itself from two legrests connected on either side of the wheelchair.
  • a drawback of the known wheelchair resides in the fact that the pivot pin of the legrest is situated below the hollow of the knee of a wheelchair user and hence in a lower position with respect to the knee joint of a wheelchair user. Consequently, the pivotal motion causes the legrest of the known wheelchair to have a rotation path which differs from the rotation path of the lower leg of a wheelchair user.
  • a wheelchair of the type mentioned in the opening paragraph is characterised in that the legrest is connected to the framework so as to be pivotable about a pivot pin, wherein the legrest can be pivoted manually in a stepless manner between a downward position, in which the footrest is automatically moved towards the pivot pin, and an upward position, in which the footrest is automatically moved in a direction away from the pivot pin.
  • the footrest moves automatically inward and outward when the legrest is manually moved downward and upward, respectively, so that the length of the legrest will automatically correspond to the length of the legs of a wheelchair user, and the footrest will optimally support the feet at all times.
  • the legrest can be manually locked in and unlocked from positions between the downward position and the upward position.
  • the effective length of the legrest 4 is infinitely variable between approximately 26.6 cm ( figure 1 at a pivoting angle of 90°) and approximately 41.8 cm ( figure 2 at a pivoting angle of 1500).
