Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bus with at least one access.
  • Coaches usually have several access points, namely a primary access, which is located in the bow area of the bus, as well as an access in the middle and optionally also an access in the rear area. While the access in the front area is relatively wide, the middle and possibly rear, rear access are relatively narrow, that is, in particular the middle access shows only a width of only 80 cm. While the
  • Staircase leading curve at the front, the stairway is designed to run straight at the middle access.
  • the rear access is often kept arcuate.
  • the middle access of a coach is further characterized in that on one side often a toilet is housed, and on the other, opposite side, the driver's sleeping cabin.
  • Especially older people often use the coach as a means of transport to get from one place to the next.
  • wheelchair users As participants. In this respect, it is already known to remove one or two seats from the seat assembly in a coach in the area of the central access to park there the wheelchairs wheelchair users, which are anchored while driving on the floor of the vehicle.
  • boarding aids for a bus.
  • a boarding aid is for example in the AT 009264 U1 described, which is designed in the manner of a load inclined elevator. That is, such a freight elevator consists in principle of two mutually parallel rails on which a seat is arranged, which is movable along the rails. In the lower end position of the seat facing outwards, that is, it allows the sitting of people, whereas in the upper end position of the seat is pivotable through 180 ° in order to allow people to get out on the floor of the bus.
  • a similar boarding aid is from the US 4,564,086 known, trained in the manner of a burden elevator lift-in at the bottom of a car with which this elevator is movable in the area of access. Again, it is so that the seat is driven by motor driven along the two rails.
  • a disadvantage of the prior art is that the boarding aids as a separate device always brought into the area of access to the coach and anchored there must be in order to allow a person access via such a boarding aid in the bus. Finally, this device must also be transported during the journey, in order to allow the persons to get out. In summary, this means that the known boarding aids in handling are very cumbersome, and also need relatively much space during transport in the bus.
  • the object underlying the invention is therefore to provide a bus that allows access to the bus with minimal effort and extremely space-saving physically disabled people.
  • the invention proposes to integrate a stairlift in the area of access in the body of the bus.
  • the central access of the bus has a maximum width of 80 cm, with the on-board toilet being provided on one side and the driver's sleeping cabin frequently being found on the opposite side. Due to the retractable integration of the stairlift in the steps of access so far an extremely space-saving embodiment of a stairlift is provided.
  • the stairlift furthermore advantageously has a device for moving a seat over the steps. That is, the seat is guided substantially parallel to the upper edges of the stairs to the floor of the vehicle.
  • the device includes a lift block that receives the seat.
  • the elevator block can be extended from the steps to transfer it to the condition of use of the stairlift. That is, the elevator block, which extends substantially the length of the stairs, is also step-shaped in side view so as to allow the flush-mounted arrangement of the elevator block in the steps of access when the stairlift is not in use.
  • the elevator block itself has according to a further feature of the invention, a skewed guide, which serves to receive the seat.
  • the seat can advantageously be moved by a drive device along the inclined guide.
  • the drive device itself may be formed as a peripheral drive means, on which a guide member is articulated by a driver, wherein on the guide member of the seat is arranged.
  • the revolving drive means which can be designed as a chain or belt drive, and in particular as a toothed belt drive, can be driven by an electric, pneumatic or hydraulic motor. It is also possible to design the drive device as a gear motor with a pinion, wherein the pinion meshes with a rack in the elevator block.
  • the seat is arranged on one side of the elevator block, that is to say that the inclined guide is also arranged on one side of the elevator block. It follows that when loading the seat, z. B. by a seated person, a dependence on the weight of the seated person a considerable moment both on the guide member, as well as on the guide member receiving inclined guide is exercised. In this respect, in order to intercept this moment, it is provided that the guide member is held by the inclined guide untiltable, but slidably along the oblique guide.
  • the guide member is formed, for example, as a triangular-shaped plate in the view, wherein at the corners of the triangular plate in each case a roller is rotatably mounted, wherein the inclined guide is formed as a cross-sectionally U-shaped rail in which the rollers of the guide member are displaceably guided.
  • the guide member has a support roller having an axis perpendicular to the oblique guide, the support roller being rotatable about the vertical axis on a leg of the U-shaped Suspended guide supported.
  • the seat is pivotally received by the guide member. This against the following background. In the lower end position of the seat, the seat must be trimmed to the vehicle outside to allow the disabled person to sit on the seat. In the upper end position, however, the disabled person must have the opportunity to get directly to the floor or floor of the vehicle. For this purpose, it is necessary that the seat by about 90 °, but preferably by about 180 ° pivotally mounted on the guide member is arranged. In this respect, a joint is provided as a connection between the guide member and the seat. It is also conceivable to provide a joint for twisting the seat below the seat.
  • the seat is arranged by a telescope on the guide member.
  • the elevator block is integrated in the staircase of the access and extends over the length of the stairs.
  • a cavity for receiving the seat is provided under the footboard of this step.
  • the seat is then when the elevator frame is in the retracted position.
  • the seat is first pulled out of the step. Then the person can board the seat in front of the bus. If necessary, the backrest and footrests are unfolded.
  • the elevator block is subsequently raised so far until the inclined guide has reached a position in which the seat can be moved over the stairs.
  • a stairlift is characterized in that the means for moving the seat over the steps comprises an arm which has the seat at one end and which is slidably supported at its other end in a slanted guide corresponding to the course the staircase is arranged in the body of the bus.
  • this arm is integrated in the staircase and in particular in the edge region of the stairs of access.
  • a slanted guide for the arm is provided, which is arranged in the staircase.
  • the arm is driven by a drive device such as a belt, in particular V-belt drive or a chain drive, using an electric motor, a hydraulic motor or an air motor.
  • the seat is also here Non-use below the tread, in particular one of the lower stages, wherein the arm with the seat disposed thereon from the step below the tread is extendable to allow seating on the seat.
  • the arm is in particular telescopically formed, wherein, moreover, the seat is pivotally mounted on the arm, in order to allow in the upper end position the exit on the floor of the bus.
  • FIGS. 1 to 9 of the first embodiment it is found in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 a representation of the central access to a bus, in which the stairlift 9 is shown in the idle state.
  • the access is closed by a door 60.
  • the stairs 2 of the access 1 are provided with a slot 3, wherein in the slot 3 of the stairs 2 of the generally designated 10 elevator block is arranged as part of the stair lift 9.
  • the elevator block thus, in each stage, including the vehicle floor 7, the access is flush-mounted and thus extends the length of the stairway of access up to and including the floor 7 of the bus.
  • a flap 5 which can be swung forwards or even completely removed.
  • the seat 20 is recognizable ( Fig. 3 ), which is located in the lowest step.
  • the seat 20 has a seat surface 21, wherein a backrest 22 is hinged to the seat.
  • the seat is pulled out of the step ( Fig. 4 ).
  • the withdrawal of the seat from the step is made possible by the fact that the seat 20 by a telescope 25 (FIG. Fig. 9 ) with the guide member 26 ( Fig. 8 ) is connected in the inclined guide 27.
  • the elevator block 10 is lifted by a piston-cylinder device with at least two piston-cylinder drives 31 as linear drives, in a height as they are made Fig. 5 results.
  • the elevator block is also on the floor 7 of the vehicle at the top of the stairs over.
  • the inclined guide 27 is found here above the stairs 2 and above the bottom 7, so that the seat, which is supported by the guide member 26 in the inclined guide 27 of the elevator block 10, above the steps along the stairs is movable, as can be seen from the illustration according to Fig. 5 results.
  • the inclined guide 27 which may be formed, for example, as a cross-section box-shaped rail with a longitudinal slot, supports the drive means 28.
  • the drive means 28 comprises a drive means 28a, z. B. a circumferential chain on which the guide member 26 is articulated by a driver 28 b.
  • the guide member is slidably received by the inclined guide 27.
  • a motor 28c in particular an electric motor is provided.
  • the guide member is untiltable by the box-shaped rail of the inclined guide 27 but displaceable in the rail added.
  • the guide member 26 is so far triangular and has at the three corners in each case a roller 26a with a horizontal axis.
  • the guide member is supported on the rail of the inclined guide 27 via a rear roller 26b ( Fig. 9 ).
  • Fig. 8a it can be provided ( Fig. 8a ), in the inclined guide 27, ie the box-shaped circumferential rail, to provide on the legs or webs of this box-shaped deep-drawn profile, needle roller bearings or needle bearing strips 30.
  • the needle bearing strips form insofar as extending over the length of the oblique guide needle bearing cage, wherein the guide member 26 in the oblique guide, ie in the rail, is guided on both sides displaceable by the needle bearing cages.
  • the guide member 26 is connected to the seat 20, in particular by the telescope 25.
  • the telescope 25 is connected by a hinge 29 to the seat, wherein the hinge 29 has a vertical axis to the seat at the upper end of access to the bottom. 7 horizontally by approx. 90 °, if necessary also by approx. 180 ° Fig. 6, Fig. 7 ).
  • FIGS. 10 to 14 Another embodiment results from the illustration according to the FIGS. 10 to 14 , Here, a slot 100 is located in the edge region of the steps 2 of the access 1. Underneath the lowermost step 2 there is in turn a swing-up or removable flap 5, which makes the seat 20 of the stairlift 9 visible ( Fig. 12 ).
  • the seat 20 rests on an arm 110 which is mounted in a skew guide, not shown, as shown schematically in Fig. 8 is shown. In this respect, reference is made to this.
