Description

WHEELCHAIR FOR PROVIDING FUNCTION OF ELEVATING STAIRS [0002]

The present invention relates to a wheelchair, and more particularly to a wheelchair that provides a step-up and step-down function.

A wheelchair is a necessary means of transport for people with limited walking, persons with legs or persons with weak physical strength. Such a wheelchair as a moving means can be used as a moving means without any discomfort in a section where there is no obstacle such as a smooth paper or the like, but it is difficult to move the section without a separate means in a slope, a staircase or an obstacle section.

In order to solve this inconvenience, various electric wheelchairs using the track have been developed, but the increase in the weight and the cost due to the electric motor used in the wheelchair cause a great burden on the disabled.

On the other hand, for the disabled who can not climb the stairs, public facilities are constructed so that wheelchairs can be raised by constructing a slope separately on the stairs. However, since such a facility incurs too much construction cost, general buildings other than public facilities Is being constructed only as a stairway to minimize the construction cost while ignoring the convenience facilities for the disabled.

In addition, there is a wheelchair lift installed in a stairway in a subway, etc. However, in order to use such a lift, a staff member must be called to use it. In addition, the wheelchair is put on the lift without a separate fixing device, and the stability is low.

Therefore, there is a social problem in which disabled people who have been in wheelchairs have been subjected to a great barrier called a staircase, and thus they are greatly restricted in the right of movement.

Therefore, there may be a demand for a wheelchair to guarantee the right of the disabled to move at a low price without increasing the weight of the wheelchair.

Korean Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 10-2005-0024129 discloses a wheelchair capable of raising the stairs by driving the rear wheel up and down using an electric motor.
