Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Field of industrial application> This invention relates to an umbrella stand device for a wheelchair that can stand up an umbrella or a parasol and prevents the person sitting on the seat from shifting forward. It is something.

<Prior art and its problems> Wheelchairs have been commonly used in the past, but wheelchairs are not provided with a roof or an umbrella. For this reason, it was considered impossible to go out in the rain, and there were times when people encountered rain while out, and in such cases, they were literally unable to move.
Furthermore, even under the scorching sun, there was a need for parasols or a roof to protect from the heat, although not as much as when it was raining. However, despite this reality, there are no wheelchairs with roofs, while umbrellas themselves generally exist, but they require both hands for wheelchair users to operate them. Therefore, for those who are unable to hold an umbrella or operate it themselves, someone will be needed to push the umbrella from behind. Many people also have hand disabilities, so it is common for them to be unable to hold an umbrella with their hands.

By the way, examples of such simple vehicles for people to ride include rickshaws and baby carriages. Of these, rickshaws have a roof, but since they are pulled from the front, the existence of a roof is The stroller does not pose an obstacle to either the rider or the person pulling it, and since the baby carriage is naturally low in height, it does not pose much of an obstacle either. In the case of such rickshaws or baby carriages, the rider does not operate them himself, and the situation is quite different from that of a wheelchair.

Also, when riding in a wheelchair, the back of the person sitting in the wheelchair gradually lowers and the buttocks tend to slide forward. Correct your posture each time, and if you are unable to do this on your own, ask for help from an attendant. Such,
The ride quality itself is not very good.

<Means for Solving the Problems> Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the wheelchair umbrella stand device according to the present invention has a hook part that can fit into the frame supporting the seat of the wheelchair body. An upwardly facing umbrella support part is disposed approximately in the center of a support bar which is disposed at both ends, and the support bar is fixed to the frame of the wheelchair while being positioned under the thighs of the person in the wheelchair. , and this supports the umbrella and maintains the stability of the body.

<Example> Next, an example of the wheelchair umbrella stand device according to this invention will be described based on the drawings. Reference numeral 1 represents a known wheelchair body, and 2 represents a seat. 3 is a frame on which this seat 2 is arranged, and 4 is a support bar that fits into this frame 3. That is, hook portions 5 that can be fitted into the frame 3 are formed at both ends of the support bar 4, and an umbrella support portion 6 is disposed approximately in the center thereof.

<Function> After sitting on the seat 2, the support bar 4 is guided onto the seat 2 so as to be located under the thighs, and the hook portions 5 formed at both ends of the support bar 4 are attached to the seat. The seat 2 is fitted into the frame 3 provided thereon. In this case, the umbrella support part 6 disposed approximately in the center of the support bar 4 is positioned upward, that is, between the thighs. The handle of the umbrella 7 may be connected to the umbrella support portion 6, and any means for this connection may be used.
For example, although they may be connected with a string, the umbrella support portion 6 may be formed into a pipe shape as shown in the figure, and the umbrella 7 may be inserted into this umbrella support portion 6. Moreover, when the handle of the umbrella 7 is short, it may be connected via another connecting member 8. Since the shaft of the umbrella 7 has a screw formed at its end, the shaft may be screwed to the umbrella support portion 6 or the connecting member 8 using this screw.

<Effects of the invention> As described above, according to the wheelchair umbrella stand device according to this invention, the umbrella stand is an abbreviation of a support bar that has hook portions at both ends that can fit into the frame supporting the seat of the wheelchair main body. Since the umbrella support part facing upward is arranged in the center, it is possible to easily stand up the umbrella, and the support bar or the umbrella support part arranged approximately in the center acts as a stopper. This has great effects, such as preventing the body from moving on the seat and allowing the seat to be used in a stable state.
