Definitions

  • the invention relates to a seat assembly for physically disabled persons, in particular a wheelchair or stroller, with a frame having two mutually parallel spars, and arranged on the frame seat, which is slidably mounted in the direction of the spars and pivotally mounted on the frame.
  • Such a movable seat assembly is from the European patent EP 0 911 008 B1 the applicant.
  • the wheelchair described here or the seat arrangement described here is used in particular to accommodate patients suffering from spastic convulsions.
  • uncontrolled impulses are given to the muscles, which lead to a spasmodic muscle tension, which generally causes a body extension. That is, the seated person unintentionally presses their muscles so that the hip joints and knee joints are pushed.
  • fastening means which include, for example, a lap belt or pelvic strap to the seat pan.
  • the in the EP 0 911 008 B1 described arrangement solves these problems by proposing that the seat and backrest are freely pivotally connected to each other, wherein a tensioning device is provided which generates the seat and the backrest in the bent seat position holding each other clamping force, and that the footrest freely pivoted to the Seat is articulated, wherein a tensioning device is provided, which generates a the footrest in the bent seat position to the seat holding clamping force.
  • a linear guide is attached to the frame of the chassis of the wheelchair below the seat. On the displaceable component of the linear guide, the seat is pivotally articulated.
  • the JP2010-69283 A describes a multi-axis robot arm, which carries a seat and is arranged on a movable frame, the frame itself but is not displaced.
  • Other support frames for seats are from the publications WO 90/00042 . US 4,544,200 . GB 2 272 633 A and
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a wheelchair or a similar seating arrangement for physically disabled persons, in which the linear guide and pivotable linkage is formed with a simple structure with high stability and reliability.
  • the seat assembly includes a Fastening unit which slidably and slidably attaches the seat to at least one of the spars, wherein the fastening unit comprises at least one bearing, which is penetrated by one of the spars and is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the spar, wherein the fastening unit has a pivotable coupling element for securing the seat, wherein the coupling element is located between the two bars.
  • the present invention now proposes to use the spars of the frame itself for attachment of the seat.
  • the construction becomes simpler and cheaper. By reducing the number of parts also maintenance and error rate is reduced.
  • the attachment unit may be slidably mounted on at least one spar and having a pivotable coupling element for securing the seat surface. It makes sense, the attachment unit is slidably mounted on two mutually parallel bars and the coupling element is located between the two bars. In this way, one obtains optimum stability of the sliding guide of the fastening unit.
  • the sliding movement of the fastening unit is limited by at least one stop and at least one biasing spring presses the fastening unit against the stop.
  • the stop against which the biasing spring acts should limit the movement of the seat in the kinked sitting position, so that the biasing spring causes the movement of the seat in this kinked sitting position.
  • a second stop is provided which limits the displacement of the seat in the stretched position.
  • the pivotal movement of the coupling element may be limited by at least one rotation stop, wherein at least one return spring causes a stop against the rotation stop.
  • This stop should limit the rotational movement in the direction of the angled seat position of the seat, so that the return spring moves the seat in the angled seating position. Again, it makes sense to provide a second rotation stop limiting the opening movement of the seat in the extended position.
  • the fastening unit may have two opposite ends, wherein at each end a displaceable bearing is arranged with a bearing bush, which is penetrated by a spar.
  • the fastening unit is thus constructed as a cross brace with two bushings at their ends, which are displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the spars of the wheelchair frame. This structure is simple and inexpensive and at the same time extremely stable.
  • the biasing spring may be a coiled against the sliding bearing coil spring.
  • the biasing spring may surround the spar.
  • the spar may be provided with an end piece which is releasably secured to the end of the spar.
  • the sliding bearing and the biasing spring can be pushed onto the spar.
  • One end of the biasing spring may abut against the end piece.
  • the second end of the biasing spring may abut against the sliding bearing and this press against the stop which defines the angled seating position of the seat.
  • the fastening unit may comprise at least one pivot bearing, which consists of two mutually rotatable bearing parts.
  • the bearing parts can in the attached state a form a closed housing, wherein the two housing halves are rotatable to each other.
  • the bearing parts can thus enclose a cavity. In the cavity, the return spring may be inserted.
  • a bearing part of the pivot bearing may be attached to a sliding bearing. If the attachment unit has two displaceable bearings at their ends, close to the two bearings two pivot bearings of the type described. Between the two pivot bearings can be arranged centrally the coupling element. The coupling element is then located in the middle between the two longitudinal beams.
  • the Fig. 1 and 2 show a seat assembly in the form of a wheelchair according to the prior art. It comprises a chassis 1 with large rear wheels 2 and small front wheels 3 on both sides of the chassis 1.
  • the upper part of the chassis 1 is formed as a double, in side view L-shaped frame 4.
  • a plurality of transversely extending to the plane of representation transverse struts (not shown) between the two L-shaped frame sections stabilize the chassis.
  • a seat 6 rests on the L-shaped frame 4. It consists of a seat 7 and a backrest 8, which are pivotally connected to each other about a pivot axis 9. The pivot axis 9 between the seat 7 and the backrest 8 extends through the pivot point of the hip joint.
  • a footrest 10 is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis 11 in the two lateral wall sections thereof.
  • the footrest 10 here consists of two mutually parallel struts, of which in the Fig. 1 and 2 in side view only one is visible.
  • Fig. 1 is schematically drawn with dashed lines a cymbal holder 13, which forms the fastening means.
  • the seat assembly can follow a stretching movement of the person seated in the seat 6.
  • the person can by muscle power, the footrest 10 to pivot forward and pivot the backrest 8 with respect to the seat 7 to the rear.
  • tensioning devices 14 and 15 are provided which the movable parts of the seat assembly in the in the Fig. 1 Pull the seated position shown.
  • the first tensioning device 14 consists of a tension spring which is fastened on the one hand to a receiving block 16 fixed to the L-shaped frame and on the other hand is connected to the seat surface 7.
  • the connection with the seat surface 7 via a linear guide 17 below the seat surface 7.
  • the lower part of the linear guide 17 is fixed to the L-shaped frame 4.
  • the front end of the upper part of the linear guide 17 is pivotally connected to the underside of the seat surface 7.
  • the tension spring 14 is articulated.
  • the tension spring 14 pulls the seat 7 in the rear position and thus the entire seat 6 in the in Fig. 1 illustrated right angle angled position.
  • the tensioning device 15 also consists of a tension spring which is arranged between the footrest 10 and the upper part of the linear guide 17. This tension spring 15 pulls the footrest 10 in the rear, angled position, as in Fig. 1 is shown.
  • the Fig. 3 shows a wheelchair according to the invention.
  • the wheelchair comprises a chassis 21 with large, rigidly mounted rear wheels 22 and two pivotally mounted front wheels 23, which allow the steering of the wheelchair.
  • the wheels 22, 23 are fastened to a side view L-shaped frame 24.
  • the L-shaped frame 24 serves to receive a seat shell 26.
  • the frame 24 with seat 26 is in side view in two different positions in the FIGS. 4 and 5 shown.
  • a handle 25 is arranged, which serves for pushing the wheelchair.
  • the seat pan 26 includes a seat surface 27 and a backrest 28.
  • the backrest 28 is connected by means of two pivot axes 29, which are formed for example by rivet or screw, hinged to the seat surface 27.
  • a linear guide is arranged in detail in the Fig. 6 is shown.
  • the Fig. 6 shows the two mutually parallel horizontal bars 34 of the side view L-shaped frame 24.
  • a spreader bar 39 is disposed between the two horizontal bars 34 of the frame 24 and keeps them at a distance.
  • the front ends of the spars 34 are a component of the linear guide for the seat surface 27 of the seat shell 26 Fig. 6 It can be seen that on the front end of each of the spars 34, an end piece 50 is screwed or otherwise secured.
  • the end piece 50 has a larger diameter than the spar 34.
  • the end piece 50 fixes on each spar the deferred bearing 38 and a biasing spring 41 which pushes the bearing 38 away from the tail 50.
  • Each of the spars 34 has an annular collar which has a larger diameter than the spar 34 and forms a stop 40 (see Fig. 5 ).
  • the biasing spring 41 pushes the sliding bearing 38 against this stop 40. For the displacement of the bearing 38 to the front end piece 50 forms the stop.
  • Each sliding bearing 38 may have a bushing 42 made of PTFE or other low friction material.
  • Each pivot bearing comprises a second, bell-shaped bearing part 44, which rotatably with one end of a pivot axis 51 (see Fig. 7 ) connected is.
  • the pivot axis 51 carries a coupling element 35 to which the seat surface 27 can be fastened by means of a quick release fastening device.
  • the two bearing parts 43, 44 of the pivot bearing enclose an inner cavity.
  • a rotation stop 45 of the outer bearing part 43 into it.
  • a projection 46 which rests in two different rotational positions of the inner bearing part 44 against one end face of the rotation stop 45 of the outer bearing part 43.
  • a leg spring forms a return spring 47 and cooperates with the two bearing parts 43 and 44.
  • Each outer bearing part 43 has a spring receptacle 48 into which a leg of the leg spring 47 protrudes.
  • Each inner bearing part 44 has a spring receptacle 49 for a second leg of the leg spring 47.
  • the two torsion springs 47 rotate the two pivot bearings 37 in the in the Fig. 4 or 6 recognizable starting position.
