Embodiment Construction

[0033] A wheelchair lift includes a base and an arm slidably supported by the base. The wheelchair lift also includes a chair support rotatably supported by the arms. The wheelchair lift also includes a linkage supported by the arm. The linkage may extend relative to the seat support from a coiled position to a straightened position. The wheelchair lift also includes a motor supported by the arm and connected to the linkage. The linkage is wound around the motor in the winding position.

[0034] The linkage may include a proximity sensor. The arm can be designed to stop the extension of the linkage when an object is detected with the proximity sensor.

[0035] The linkage may extend substantially flat in the straightened position.

[0036] The chair support may include a retainer, fingers and a second motor. The fingers can be moved from the open position to the closed position towards the retainer using the second motor. A linkage can be attached to the retainer. The ...

Abstract

A wheelchair lift includes a base and an arm slidably supported by the base. A chair support is rotatably supported by the arm. A linkage is supported by the arm and is extendable relative to the chair support from a coiled position to a straightened position. A motor is supported by the arm and connected to the linkage. The linkage winds around the motor in the wound position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a wheelchair lift comprising a base and an arm slidably supported by the base. The chair support is rotatably supported by the arms. The linkage is supported by the arm and is extendable relative to the chair support from a coiled position to a straightened position. The motor is supported by the arm and connected to the linkage. The linkage is wound around the motor in the winding position. Background technique [0002] The operator of the vehicle may use a wheelchair. When operating the vehicle, the operator can stow the wheelchair in the vehicle. For example, the operator can fold the wheelchair and stow the wheelchair on an adjacent vehicle seat. In another example, the operator may stow the wheelchair on the vehicle floor in the cabin. However, putting away the wheelchair can be cumbersome. There is still an opportunity to design a system for assisting wheelchair storage in a vehicle. SUMMARY OF THE INVENT...
