Definitions

  • the invention relates to devices for assisting walking and wheelchairs, in particular for people with reduced mobility.
  • Some of these chairs include a frame, a movable seat, and a seat elevation system.
  • the movable seat is in particular moved relative to the frame between a high position and a low seat position, under the effect of at least one jack. In the high position, the mobile seat is behind the user.
  • Some of these walking assist wheelchairs have very little walking space. In addition, some of these movable seat wheelchairs or walkers do not prevent a person with reduced mobility from falling.
  • the invention aims to at least partially resolve the problems encountered in the solutions of the prior art.
  • the invention as defined in claim 1, relates to a wheelchair for assisting with walking.
  • the walking aid chair comprises a frame, a movable base and a device for changing the position of the base.
  • the mobile base is movable relative to the frame between a low sitting position in which a user can sit on it, and a high walking position in which it is intended to be in contact with the user and at least partially behind the user.
  • the base position change device is configured to move the base between its high position and its low position.
  • the position changing device includes at least a first arm and a linear actuator. The first arm extends between the frame and the base.
  • the linear actuator is connected by a lower mechanical link to the frame and by an upper mechanical link to the first arm.
  • the linear actuator is configured to urge the movable base towards the high position by means of the first arm.
  • the arm is connected at its lower end by a lower articulation to the frame and at its upper end by an upper articulation to the movable base, the upper articulation being located at the rear of the lower articulation on the entire travel of the movable base when the movable base moves from the low position to the high position.
  • the arm forms an inter-motor type lever.
  • the user of the chair can move from the low seat position to the high walking position, with a risk of falling out of the chair which is reduced, or even eliminated. Furthermore, the movement of the mobile base during the passage from the low seat position to the high walking position is carried out with a movement relative to the frame which is upwards and forwards and which better respects the natural movement of a user to stand up.
  • the wheelchair requires moderate effort on the part of the user to get up and walk. In particular, it is suitable for re-educating the user for walking or for keeping him able to walk, in particular alone and in safety.
  • the position changing device advances the frame relative to the base, when the user wishes to sit down or when the user tends to fall either towards the rear or substantially vertically.
  • the actuator helps the user to stand up.
  • it allows the position changing device to at least partially support the weight of the user during the passage from the low position to the high position, while allowing the passage from the high position to the low position using the weight of the user exerted on the mobile base.
  • the wheelchair has a dynamic seat, the position of the mobile base relative to the frame being variable according to the weight exerted by the user on the mobile base, in particular when walking.
  • the inter-motor lever Due in particular to the inter-motor lever, the inclination of the first arm and possibly the inclination of the actuator of the first arm, the size of the lifting device is reduced. The user thus benefits from a relatively large walking space.
  • the chair is a walking aid wheelchair, in the sense that it allows the user, for example a person with reduced mobility, to walk more normally, in particular with the feet in contact with the ground.
  • the wheelchair accompanies the user in his movement when he walks.
  • the upper end of the arm is configured to form a maximum angle with the horizontal in the direction of the trigonometric circle, ensuring that for this angle the absolute value of the moment normal to the arm exerted by the actuator is strictly less than the value absolute moment normal to the arm exerted by the user when he applies the majority of his weight, preferably all his weight on the mobile base.
  • the increase in the angle of the actuator with the normal to the arm with the elevation makes it possible to exert a greater pushing force in the low seat position than in the high running position.
  • the weight that the user exerts on the movable base to sit down thus remains moderate relative to the force for urging the base upwards by the actuator.
  • This upward bias on the actuator therefore does not block the user in the high position. He can then lower himself under the effect of his weight without risk of rearward recoil when he tends to sit in the chair or to fall vertically or backwards.
  • the invention may optionally include one or more of the following features combined or not.
  • each linear actuator comprises an elastic return means configured to elastically urge the movable base towards the high position by means of the first arm.
  • the mobile base then partially supports the weight of the user when lifting, when sitting down, and when walking.
  • the position of the movable base relative to the frame depends more on the weight exerted by the user on the movable base. In other words, the wheelchair sits more dynamically.
  • each linear actuator is passive.
  • each actuator is non-motorized.
  • the chair is then lightened and the size of the chair is reduced compared to a motorized chair, for example by an electric motor. In addition, it requires less maintenance than a motorized chair.
