  However, in the above-described conventional wheelchair, when a physically handicapped person adds work, the work cannot be added unless the wheelchair 10 is pushed to the toilet. Furthermore, when the patient's legs are inconvenient, nurses and family members have to lift and sit on the toilet, which is very difficult for the family and patients.

A difference between the excretory folding wheelchair 10A described in Patent Document 1 (see FIGS. 2A and 2B) and the conventional wheelchair 10 is that a wheelchair frame 120 is mounted on two movable poles 121. The seat sheet 130 is installed above the wheelchair frame 120, and the excretion receptacle 140 is installed below the wheelchair frame 120, so that the user can use the wheelchair 10A.
However, in such a structural design, the user can directly use the wheelchair 10A. However, since the seat sheet 130 is made of plastic and has the excretion hole 131, the wheelchair 10A is When folding, the seat sheet 130 and the excretion receptacle 140 must be removed, which is inconvenient in use. Furthermore, since the excretion hole 131 of the seat 130 is a fixed opening, it is inconvenient when the user uses the wheelchair 10 as shown in FIG. 1 instead of using the wheelchair 10A. It was not practical.
As such a conventional technique, for example, “a structure of a combination wheelchair having a toilet seat function” described in Patent Document 2 is referred to.

  Furthermore, since the armrests 150 on both sides of the conventional wheelchair 10A are fixed together, they cannot be lifted. For this reason, it was extremely inconvenient for the patient to move between the bed and the wheelchair (get on and off the wheelchair). In addition, a wheelchair with a conventional excretion receptor or toilet function cannot wipe the buttock while sitting in the wheelchair, and the patient cannot wipe the buttock unless the patient lifts the body. The excretion could not be processed. As described above, any wheelchair to which a conventional excretion receptor or excretion receptor function is added has a problem that it is inconvenient to remove and install, and there is room for improvement.

  Therefore, the present inventor considered that the above-described drawbacks can be improved, and as a result of intensive studies, the present inventor has arrived at a proposal of the present invention that effectively improves the above-described problems with a rational design.
