Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a platform that has been specially designed to facilitate the access of disabled persons on wheelchairs to a coach or bus.
  • the object of the invention is to achieve a platform with a practically zero volumetric occupation under the floor of the coach or bus, capable of flush with the ground, facilitating access to it from the wheelchair, and subsequently flush with the floor of the coach or bus, to facilitate in turn the access of said wheelchair to the interior thereof.
  • the platform that the invention proposes solves in a fully satisfactory manner the above-mentioned problem, so that it can be implanted on any coach or bus, regardless of the provision therein of the corresponding engine, and this on the basis that its special conception does not require a space under the floor of said coach or bus, for its proper implementation and functionality.
  • said platform fundamentally focuses its characteristics on the fact that it is obtained from the classic steps of access to the coach or bus for the general public, materialized in a plurality of articulated sections that, through the mechanism of Appropriate drives are capable of configuring steps, when the articulated sections are retracted, or a flat platform, when the sections are extended.
  • This structure is also mounted on a vertically movable support and capable of adopting three positions in height, an intermediate position, the conformation of the classic steps and which will be the usual in the coach or bus, a lower extreme position in which said steps become a platform that is substantially flush with the ground, and an extreme upper situation in which the said platform is in turn flush with the coach floor or bus, so that in the lower extreme position a disabled person can access the platform directly from the ground, without the slightest problem to the effect, and after the proper elevation of the same, you can also access without any problem inside the coach or bus
  • the said support structure of the platform has extensible lateral guides, driven for example by a rack system that is attached to one of the outer sections of the platform, so that the movement of the rack produces the extension or folding of the same, said support structure being mounted on vertical guides belonging to a lifting column, which by means of a spindle system allows the lifting and lowering thereof.
  • the free and extreme sector of said platform is capable of tilting downwards to define a small ramp that facilitates access to the platform, when necessary, and that in addition said terminal section has a hatch that can be tilted upwards, to constitute a retention stop that ensures the positional maintenance of the wheelchair on the platform during the ascent maneuver, offering full security for the disabled person.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic representation in side elevation of a platform for access to coaches and buses for disabled persons made in accordance with the object of the present invention, in which the normal stair position is represented in a continuous line. in broken lines the limit positions of the platform deployed at ground level and at the level of the coach or bus floor.
  • Figure 2. Shows a plan view of the assembly represented in the previous figure, partially sectioned to show more clearly its structure.
  • Figure 3.- shows three schematic representations in perspective of the set represented in the previous figures, corresponding to the three basic positions of the platform.
  • the third element is the one that relates the previous two through bearings or any other appropriate means of sliding.
  • An electric motor (8) mounted on the support structure (7), acts through its pinion of attack (9) on a rack (10) attached to the terminal element of one of the guides (6), for extension and retraction of the same, with the consequent extension of the platform or folding of it configuring the stirrup or step of access to the interior of the coach or bus, for which purpose the joints (11) between the different sections (1-2-3-4 -5) of the platform, and the articulation of the initial section (1) to the support structure itself (V), will be properly structured with stops (12) that favor the folding of said sections only in the correct direction.
  • two lateral and fixed stirrup sectors (13) participate, in solidarity with the structure of the coach or bus, which also to increase the width of the steps when the platform acts as such, they allow to accommodate a pair of hydraulic cylinders (14-14 ') that stabilize the steps in working situation. In this sense the support structure
  • the end or front section (5) of the platform, cantilever with respect to the guides (6), is assisted by a pair of small pneumatic cylinders (17) that allow its downward tilting, to establish a small access ramp from the ground to the platform, as shown by the lower extreme position of figure 1.
  • a small hatch (18) is established, tilting upwards, with the contest of two other small pneumatic cylinders ( 19), so that this trapdoor (18) acts as a retention stop for the wheelchair, when it is positioned on the properly extended platform.
  • the support structure (7) is integral with a lateral and mobile column (20) movable vertically on a fixed column (21) conveniently in solidarity with the structure of the coach or bus , on one of the sides of the access door, said mobile column (20) materializing in a carriage (22) with wheels (23) to facilitate its sliding and with a nut on which a spindle (24) acts to raise and lower it, a spindle that receives the movement, through a suitable transmission (25), of a motor (26) established in the upper end of the fixed column ( 21), being both the engine (26) for lifting and lowering the platform and the engine (6) for folding and unfolding it, duly commanded through a programmable automaton and from maneuver push-buttons established in the driver's area and in the access area of the coach or bus platform.
  • the cylinders (14-14 ') will have been retracted to allow the extension of the different constituent sections of the platform.
  • the driver or the disabled will press the lift button, which will first activate the pneumatic cylinders (19) to raise the retention hatch (18) for the wheelchair, and then the electric motor (26) will be operated so that the platform is raised to the upper limit situation represented in broken lines at the upper level of Figure 1, where said platform will be flush with the floor (27) of the coach or bus.
  • the platform descends to the intermediate position and simultaneously the drive in the opposite direction of the engine (8) for the folding of the different constituent sections of the platform and its transformation into the pair of steps mentioned above and shown in continuous line in figure 1, after which the cylinders will be activated

Abstract

L'invention concerne une plate-forme structurée à partir d'une pluralité de parties articulées (1-2-3-4-5) de manière que lesdites parties puissent adopter une disposition coplanaire pour constituer la plate-forme proprement dite, ou puissent constituer les marches d'accès à l'autocar ou à l'autobus classiques par un cambrage approprié pour toutes et chacune d'elles. La plate-forme propement dite est montée sur une structure support (7) pourvue de guides latéraux (6) permettant son extension et son repli. Ladite structure support (7) est connectée à une colonne mobile (20) pouvant se déplacer verticalement sur une colonne fixe (21) fixée à la structure de l'autocar ou de l'autobus afin qu'à l'aide d'un moteur (26), la plate-forme proprement dite puisse monter et descendre de manière à adopter trois positions de travail, une position limite inférieure sur laquelle, en position dépliée, ladite plate-forme est au niveau du sol, une position intermédiaire sur laquelle elle constitue les marches d'accès à l'autocar ou à l'autobus classiques, et une position limite supérieure sur laquelle, également en position dépliée, elle est coplanaire avec le plancher (27) de l'autocar ou de l'autobus.
