Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-79668 JP 2006-271606 A JP-A-8-142769 JP 2006-347201 A

  When a caregiver installs a wheelchair in a car's luggage room, the wheelchair must be lifted to the luggage height after folding the wheelchair. However, since the wheelchair is heavy and the height of the luggage is higher than the position of one's waist, it has to be lifted more than the height of the waist.

  Therefore, the demand for the wheelchair storage device is that the operation is simple, no large force is required, and that the device can be quickly mounted. Furthermore, it is not necessary to modify the automobile or wheelchair, and it is required that the automobile can be accommodated in the automobile regardless of the type and size of the automobile or wheelchair. If it is specially modified, it will be costly, and it may cause an economic burden as well as an economic burden. Furthermore, it is required that the vehicle and the wheelchair are not damaged, and that the luggage of the vehicle is not soiled by mud adhering to the wheelchair wheel.

  In the wheelchair storage device disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3, the wheelchair storage device must be fixed to the luggage room of the automobile or the floor surface of the trunk room. Regardless, it remains installed in the car. When the wheelchair storage device is enlarged as disclosed in, for example, Patent Document 3, not only the space for loading the luggage is reduced, but it may be an obstacle when the luggage is loaded and unloaded.

  Depending on the conventional wheelchair storage device, it is necessary to replace the base member of the automobile with a dedicated product, which is not only expensive but also unnecessary to use the base member. When lifting a wheelchair as in Patent Documents 1 and 2, since the center of gravity moves along a uniaxial direction, the relationship between the lifting hook and the center of gravity of the wheelchair changes every time the wheelchair is lifted, and stable lifting cannot be performed. In such a case, when the wheelchair is stored in the automobile, a cover for preventing scratches or a fixing belt is required so as not to damage or contaminate the automobile or the wheelchair.

Such a device for storing a wheelchair in an automobile has the following common problems.
First, in a vehicle to which a wheelchair storage device is attached, it is not easy to remove the wheelchair storage device, and the wheelchair storage device becomes an obstacle when a person who does not use the wheelchair storage device operates.
Secondly, when the wheelchair storage device is attached to the luggage room of the automobile, the wheelchair storage device occupies a part of the luggage space, and the remaining space of the luggage room is reduced. For this reason, it becomes difficult to store the luggage in the luggage, and the utility of the luggage room cannot be maintained.
Third, in order to install the wheelchair storage device in the luggage room of the automobile, a part of the body and interior of the automobile must be replaced with a dedicated member corresponding to the wheelchair storage apparatus. Therefore, not only remodeling costs are generated, but also a part of the vehicle body and interior that is replaced with a dedicated member is wasted.
Fourth, the wheelchair storage device is relatively large, and the wheelchair storage device can be viewed from the outside of the vehicle, which imposes a psychological burden on the user.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a storage device for a vehicle that can easily store a wheelchair or other luggage in a vehicle and can be easily removed when not necessary.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a winding rod disposed along the vehicle width direction in a luggage room of an automobile, a fixing belt and other fixing means, and is wound around the winding rod. And a drive system for applying a rotational driving force to the take-up rod. The seat member wound around the take-up rod is pulled out, and a wheelchair or other stored item is attached to the seat member with a fixing belt. The wheelchair and other stored items are stored in the luggage room by fixing and winding the sheet member with the winding rod by the drive system.

  In the above configuration, preferably, an attachment support member is provided at one axial end of the take-up rod so as to rotatably support the take-up rod, and the attachment support member has a length for adjusting its axial length. A height adjusting mechanism is provided.

  In the above configuration, preferably, an attachment support member that rotatably supports the take-up rod is provided at the other axial end of the take-up rod, and a drive system is built in the attachment support member.

  According to the storage device for an automobile of the present invention, the winding rod is spanned across the luggage room in the vehicle width direction, and the sheet member wound around the winding rod is pulled out from the luggage room and attached to the seat member. The wheelchair and other stored items are fixed to the seat member by the fixing belt, and the wheelchair and other stored items are lifted and can be placed in the luggage room by winding the sheet member with the winding rod. At that time, since the wheelchair and other stored items are placed in a state where the seat member is laid on the floor surface of the luggage room, the seat member functions as a dirt prevention cover even if mud adheres to the wheel of the wheelchair, etc. The sheet member functions as a scratch prevention cover by adjusting the thickness of the sheet member or by incorporating a cushion material or the like in the sheet member.

  The storage device for an automobile of the present invention is compact because the sheet member is wound around the winding rod. Therefore, the take-up rod of the storage device can be easily installed only in the luggage room, and can be easily and easily removed when the storage device is unnecessary, such as when a person who is not a wheelchair user drives. it can. There is no restriction on the type and size of the automobile to which the storage device is attached. Therefore, the storage device can be widely applied, and the storage device can be easily and quickly attached or detached even if the automobile is a borrowed item. Since the storage device has few components and is compact, it can be provided at a low cost, and the luggage space is not occupied by the storage device, and the luggage space can be used effectively. In addition, since no special dedicated member is required to install the storage device in the luggage room, it is not necessary to remodel the automobile and there is no possibility of being visually recognized from outside. Moreover, since the wheelchair is fixed to the seat member by a fixing belt or other fixing means, it is not necessary to modify the wheelchair. Tools required for storing wheelchairs and other stored items in the luggage room, for example, fixing means such as fixing belts, can be attached to the seat member, so that there is no need to prepare them separately.

  In particular, when the length adjustment mechanism is provided on the mounting support member, the mounting support member is attached to both ends, and the mounting support member is attached to the interior side wall of the luggage room like a so-called tension bar. Since it only has to be pressed, installation is very simple. Further, when there is a dent or the like on the interior side wall, a pressing portion may be inserted into the dent to be hooked on the dent.

  In particular, when the mounting support member has a built-in drive system, the device can be made smaller, and the storage function of the luggage room will not be lost. Since it is sufficient, there is no problem with the storage space when it is removed.
