Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a guide stand for a bus that supports the waist of a bus guide standing rearward on a tour bus or the like and allows the guide to lean on the guide.

(Prior art) Conventionally, this type of guide stand was developed in 1983.
The one described in Publication No. 108638 is known.

In this guide stand, a support frame for the waist rest is fitted into a window provided in the wall on the step side of the L-shaped driver's seat enclosure, and the waist rest is pivoted to the support frame and fitted into the window. It is configured so that it can take two positions: a storage position and a use position where it extends from the wall.

[The problem that the idea attempts to solve]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional guide stand, the load generated by leaning the bus guide on the support frame is cantilevered by the shaft at one end of the lumbar rest that is pivotally connected to the support frame. It is not possible to make the bus guide wider, and when using the bus guide, the body tends to come off due to rolling of the vehicle, etc., and the position on which the bus guide can rest is limited, making it easy to get tired.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention includes a short-shaped waist rest case whose one end is pivoted by an axis perpendicular to the side wall of the vehicle body facing the step, and a short-shaped waist rest case that can be accommodated in the waist rest case. At the same time, one end is pivotally connected to the other end of the case by a vertical axis, and the other end is capable of abutting against the rear surface of the entrance/exit partition that is erected opposite the side wall. The waist rest is provided with a locking device that is attached to a connecting part between the waist rest case and the waist rest and fixes the waist rest case and the waist rest in a straight line.

[Effect]

In the above means, the lumbar rest case and the lumbar rest straddle the left and right sides of the step in a linear state fixed by a locking device, and the load caused by the bus guide leaning on it is supported at both ends.

Furthermore, when the guide stand is in use, it becomes a partition between the driver's cab and the passenger cabin.

The lateral width of the lumbar rest is approximately 1/2 of the lateral width of the step by making the length of the lumbar rest case approximately 1/2 of the lateral width of the step.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIGS. 1, 2, and 3 are a front view, a side view, and a plan view, respectively, showing how the bus guide stand is used, and FIG. 4 is a plan view showing the bus guide stand when it is stored.

1 in the figure is the front entrance 2 of the sightseeing bus (Figures 3 and 4).
In step 3 of step 3 (see figure), attach a vertical axis 6 to the mounting bracket 5 attached to the side wall 4 of the vehicle body facing the
It is a short-shaped waist support case with one end (left end in Figure 1) pivoted by a In Fig. 3, it is open downward).

The waist support case 1 has one end pivotally attached to the lower surface of the intermediate portion thereof, and the other end pivotably attached to the side wall 4. The waist rest case 1 has a bi-foldable stopper stay 7 pivotably attached to the side wall 4, so that the rotation range is limited to the side wall 4. The ball catch 8 is restricted from a parallel storage position to a use position perpendicular to the side wall 4, and is attached to the side wall 4 in the storage position.
It is provided so that it can be fixed by.

At the other end of the waist rest case 1, one end (the left end in FIG. 1) of the waist rest 9, which is formed into a short shape and can be accommodated in the waist rest case 1, is connected to a vertical axis 1.
It is pivoted by 0. The waist rest 9 is formed by wrapping the outer surface of a rectangular frame with a tension material via a cushion material, and is attached to a plate-shaped entrance/exit partition 11 erected on the side of the step 3 facing the side wall 4. In order to be able to come into contact with the rear surface (lower surface in FIG. 3), it is provided with a length of about 1/2 of the left and right width of the uppermost step 3.

A rectangular drop 13 that can be inserted into a hole 12 provided at the other end of the waist rest case 1 is attached to one end of the waist rest 9, which is a connecting portion with the waist rest case 1. The square drop 13 functions as a locking device that fixes the waist rest case 1 and the waist rest 9 in a straight line.

In each figure, 14 is the inner plate of the entrance and exit, 15 is the passage floor surface, and in FIGS. 2 to 4, 16 is a service box on the upper landing, 17 is a storage box for passenger service supplies, 1 in Figure 4
8 is a driver's seat, and 19 is a guide seat.

The bus guide stand configured as described above rotates the waist rest case 1 about the axis 6 from the stored position shown in FIG. 4 to the allowable range of the counterclockwise stopper stay 7 in FIG. is rotated counterclockwise about the shaft 10 in the same way, and the other end is brought into contact with the rear surface of the entrance/exit partition 11, and the square dropper 1
3, the lumbar rest case 1 and the lumbar rest 9 are fixed in a straight line, and the lumbar rest 9 is housed in the lumbar rest case 1 by reversing the above procedure, and then the lumbar rest case 1 is fixed. 1 is held and stored by a ball catch 8.

Therefore, when in use, the lumbar rest case 1 and the lumbar rest 9 are fixed by the square drop 13 so that they are in a straight line and straddle the left and right sides of the step 3, so that the load caused by the bus guide's rest is applied to both ends. Since the lumbar support 9 is supported by the lower part, the lateral width of the waist rest 9 can be made wider, and even if the bus is shaken sideways, the body of the bus guide will not easily come off, and by changing the position of the bus guide, fatigue can be reduced. It can be reduced.

In addition, when the guide stand is in use, it becomes a partition between the driver's cabin and the passenger cabin, so passengers cannot enter the driver's cabin while the bus guide is guiding outside the bus or moving inside the cabin. can be prevented, driving safety and
This helps prevent accidents for passengers on the stairs.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the entrance/exit partition 1
Although the case where 1 is plate-shaped has been described, the frame is not limited to this, and may be a frame made of, for example, a round pipe or the like.

In addition, the waist rest case 1 is opened rearward and the waist rest 9 is opened.
The case is rotated clockwise around the axis 10 in FIG. 3 to accommodate the entire case, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the opening part of the waist rest case may be reversed to the front, and one end of the waist rest may be rotated clockwise in FIG. It is also possible to rotate counterclockwise around the center to house a part of it and make the rest protrude from the waist rest case.By doing this, the bus guide can be rested even in the stored position. becomes.

[Effect of idea]

As described above, according to the present invention, the lumbar rest case and the lumbar rest straddle the left and right sides of the step in a straight line fixed by the locking device, and the load due to the bus guide's leaning is applied to both ends. Since it is supported, the lateral width of the waist rest can be made significantly wider than before. Therefore, even if the vehicle is shaken or the like, the bus guide's body is unlikely to come off the waist rest, and by changing the position of the bus guide, fatigue can be reduced.

In addition, when the guide stand is in use, it becomes a partition between the driver's cabin and the passenger cabin, so passengers cannot enter the driver's cabin while the bus guide is guiding outside the bus or moving inside the cabin. can be prevented, driving safety and
This helps prevent accidents for passengers on the stairs.
