When the wheelchair is pushed into the roller docking slot, the barrier flap springs up during lifting, blocking the outer edges of the wheels and effectively preventing the wheelchair from detaching from the docking slot during lifting, thus enhancing the device's stability and safety.

[0013] 2. This utility model utilizes a side plate electromagnet. After the wheelchair support plate reaches the ground, power is supplied to the electromagnet, attracting the side plate insert rod and causing the outer friction clamping side plate to move outward. Once the wheelchair support plate is lifted off the ground, power is cut off, and the outer friction clamping side plate, under the elastic force of the side plate pre-compression spring, pushes out, clamping and fixing the wheelchair wheels on both sides securely within the movable slots. This facilitates transportation and prevents accidental injuries caused by wheelchair swaying or slipping during transport, enhancing the device's safety and practicality. Furthermore, the coordinated design of the side plate electromagnet and the side plate pre-compression spring makes clamping and releasing the friction clamping side plate simpler and faster, improving the device's efficiency. In addition, customers can customize wheelchair support plates with different sized roller docking slots according to their needs, adapting to different wheelchair sizes and improving the device's versatility and adaptability.

[0014] 3. This utility model utilizes a roller docking groove composed of a strip steel plate and rubber friction blocks. This not only enhances the structural strength of the docking groove but also increases the friction between the rubber friction blocks and the wheelchair wheels through the raised friction grid pattern, further ensuring the stability and safety of the wheelchair during transportation. The use of rubber friction blocks also reduces wear between the wheelchair wheels and the docking groove to a certain extent, extending the service life of the device. Simultaneously, the combined design of the strip steel plate and rubber friction blocks simplifies and speeds up the manufacturing and installation of the roller docking groove, reducing production costs and improving the cost-effectiveness of the device.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This utility model provides a vehicle side sliding door wheelchair transfer device with an integrated lifting platform, including a folding guide rail side sliding lifting mechanism and a folding wheelchair bracket. The folding guide rail side sliding lifting mechanism includes two parallel horizontal electric screw slides 1 and two lifting electric screw slides 3. The slide transmission end of each horizontal electric screw slide 1 is fixedly connected to a reduction motor tilting seat 2, and the reduction motor tilting seat 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer side of the lifting electric screw slide 3. The folding wheelchair bracket includes a support and storage frame 4 and a wheelchair support plate 6. The storage frame 4 is fixedly connected to the slide transmission end of the lifting electric screw slide 3, and the wheelchair support plate 6 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the storage frame 4 through a 90-degree limiting positioning damping hinge 5. The inner side of the wheelchair support plate 6 is provided with two roller docking grooves 7 corresponding to the position of the wheelchair's moving wheels, and a guide ramp 9 is provided on one side of the wheelchair support plate 6. The roller docking grooves 7 are set through the guide ramp 9, and friction clamping side plates 8 are provided on the inner walls of the two roller docking grooves 7. A blocking flap 10 is provided at one end of the roller docking grooves 7 corresponding to the guide ramp 9.

[0022] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, the folding guide rail side-sliding lifting mechanism drives the lifting electric screw slide 3 to rotate 90 degrees via the geared motor flipping seat 2, thereby achieving the folding and unfolding of the horizontal electric screw slide 1 and the lifting electric screw slide 3. Through the folding wheelchair bracket, the carrying and storage frame 4 and the wheelchair support plate 6 are connected by a 90-degree limiting positioning damping hinge 5, which limits the rotation angle and provides damping, allowing the wheelchair support plate 6 to overlap with the carrying and storage frame 4 for storage and unfolding. In the folded state, the geared motor flipping seat 2 is located on the outermost side of the horizontal electric screw slide 1, and the lifting electric screw slide 3 is folded upwards on top of the horizontal electric screw slide 1. The carrying and storage frame 4 and the wheelchair support plate 6 are overlapped and folded into a flat plate, then stacked on top of the geared motor flipping seat 2. The entire device is mounted on the vehicle... On the chassis at the opening position of the vehicle's middle door, the overlapping flat plate of the folded carrying and storage frame 4 and the wheelchair support plate 6 is flush with the vehicle's interior floor. When unfolded, the geared motor flipping seat 2 drives the lifting electric screw slide 3 to rotate 90 degrees, causing the lifting electric screw slide 3 to switch to a vertical position. The wheelchair support plate 6 is manually flipped open, and then the carrying and storage frame 4 is lowered by the lifting electric screw slide 3, causing the wheelchair support plate 6 to fall to the ground. The wheelchair is pushed onto the wheelchair support plate 6 by the guide ramp 9, and the wheels are inserted into the roller docking groove 7 and clamped and fixed by the friction clamping side plate 8. Then, the wheelchair support plate 6 supporting the wheelchair is raised by the lifting electric screw slide 3 until the bottom of the carrying and storage frame 4 and the wheelchair support plate 6 passes the upper side of the horizontal electric screw slide 1. Then, the wheelchair support plate 6 is moved horizontally into the vehicle by the horizontal electric screw slide 1 until the entire wheelchair support plate 6 is inside the vehicle.

[0023] The design of the folding guide rail side-sliding lifting mechanism and the folding wheelchair bracket allows the device to be compactly stored when not in use, occupying minimal space while maintaining a flat floor, facilitating passenger movement and vehicle interior layout. During use, the horizontal electric screw slide 1 and the lifting electric screw slide 3 drive the wheelchair smoothly and accurately, significantly reducing operational difficulty and physical exertion. The docking slot 7 allows for easy engagement with the wheelchair wheels, facilitating wheelchair fixation. The friction clamping side plate 8 further secures the wheelchair, ensuring stability and safety during transport and preventing accidental injuries caused by shaking or slipping. The barrier flap 10 further enhances the device's safety. When the wheelchair is pushed into the roller docking slot 7, the barrier flap 10 springs up during lifting, blocking the outer sides of the wheels and effectively preventing the wheelchair from detaching from the docking slot 7 during lifting, thus enhancing the device's stability and safety.

[0024] In this embodiment, preferably, a friction clamping side plate 8 is provided on each of the two side walls of the roller docking groove 7. The friction clamping side plate 8 on the inner side is fixedly connected to the side wall of the roller docking groove 7, and a side plate insert rod 11 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the friction clamping side plate 8 on the outer side. A movable slot is provided on the outer side wall of the roller docking groove 7 corresponding to the side plate insert rod 11. The side plate insert rod 11 is movably inserted into the movable slot on the side wall of the roller docking groove 7. A side plate electromagnet 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable slot on the side wall of the roller docking groove 7. A side plate pre-compression spring is fixedly connected between the side plate electromagnet 12 and the side plate insert rod 11. 13; Power is supplied to the side plate electromagnet 12 after the wheelchair support plate 6 reaches the ground. The electromagnet 12 attracts the side plate insert 11, causing the outer friction clamping side plate 8 to move outwards. Once the wheelchair support plate 6 is lifted off the ground, the power is cut off, and the outer friction clamping side plate 8 is pushed out by the elastic force of the side plate pre-compression spring 13, clamping and fixing the wheelchair wheels on both sides. This makes the wheelchair wheels more securely fixed in the movable slots, facilitating transportation and preventing accidental injuries caused by wheelchair swaying or slipping during transport, thus enhancing the safety and practicality of the device. Simultaneously, the coordinated design of the side plate electromagnet 12 and the side plate pre-compression spring 13 makes the clamping and releasing operation of the friction clamping side plate 8 simpler and faster, improving the efficiency of the device. Furthermore, customers can customize wheelchair support plates 6 with different sizes of roller docking slots 7 according to their needs, adapting to different wheelchair sizes and improving the versatility and adaptability of the device.

[0025] In this embodiment, preferably, rotating convex shafts are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer end of the barrier flap 10, and the rotating convex shafts are rotatably connected to the inner walls of both sides of the roller docking groove 7. A circular groove is formed at the bottom of the roller docking groove 7 corresponding to the center of the barrier flap 10, and a flap ejection spring 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the circular groove. The other end of the flap ejection spring 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the barrier flap 10 with its upper end facing upward. A flap electromagnet 15 is embedded at the bottom of the roller docking groove 7 corresponding to the front end of the barrier flap 10. Through the provided flap electromagnet 15, the wheelchair... After the support plate 6 reaches the ground, the flip-plate electromagnet 15 is energized. The electromagnet 15 attracts the front end of the blocking flip plate 10, preventing it from overcoming the elastic force of the flip-plate ejection spring 14 and maintaining contact with the bottom of the roller docking slot 7. At this point, the wheelchair can pass normally through the blocking flip plate 10. After the wheelchair support plate 6 is lifted off the ground, the power is cut off, and the flip-plate ejection spring 14 lifts the blocking flip plate 10, raising its rear end to block the outer side of the wheelchair wheels, effectively preventing the wheelchair from detaching from the docking slot 7 due to swaying during lifting and lowering, further enhancing the stability and safety of the device. Simultaneously, the coordinated design of the flip-plate electromagnet 15 and the flip-plate ejection spring 14 makes the flipping and resetting operation of the blocking flip plate 10 simpler and faster, improving the efficiency of the device. Furthermore, the guide ramp 9 facilitates the pushing and pushing of the wheelchair, improving the device's convenience.

[0026] In this embodiment, preferably, the drive motor of the horizontal electric lead screw slide 1 is located on the side of the guide rail facing the vehicle interior, and the drive motor of the lifting electric lead screw slide 3 is located on the opposite side of the two guide rails. The outer upper end of the geared motor flipping seat 2 is rounded. The location of the drive motor of the horizontal electric lead screw slide 1 on the side of the guide rail facing the vehicle interior can make full use of the space under the vehicle. The location of the drive motor of the lifting electric lead screw slide 3 on the opposite side of the two guide rails ensures that the drive motor of the lifting electric lead screw slide 3 does not affect the folding and storage of the lifting electric lead screw slide 3, while providing a limit for supporting the storage frame 4. The rounded design of the outer upper end of the geared motor flipping seat 2 ensures that the lifting electric lead screw slide 3 can flip normally.

[0027] In this embodiment, preferably, the upper side of the support and storage frame 4 is provided with an extension end; through the provided extension end, the extension end covers a larger area when folded, which can provide more space for the support and storage frame 4 to move into the vehicle, making it easier for the wheelchair support plate 6 to be fully unfolded and smoothly support the wheelchair into the vehicle.

[0028] In this embodiment, preferably, the roller docking groove 7 includes a strip steel plate and a rubber friction block. The rubber friction block is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the roller docking groove 7, and friction grid textures are evenly distributed on the opposite side of the rubber friction block. The roller docking groove 7, formed by the combination of the strip steel plate and the rubber friction block, not only enhances the structural strength of the docking groove, but also increases the friction between the roller and the wheelchair wheel through the friction grid textures on the rubber friction block, further ensuring the stability and safety of the wheelchair during transportation. The use of rubber friction blocks can also reduce the wear between the wheelchair wheel and the docking groove to a certain extent, extending the service life of the device. At the same time, the combined design of the strip steel plate and the rubber friction block makes the manufacturing and installation of the roller docking groove 7 simpler and faster, reduces production costs, and improves the cost-effectiveness of the device.

[0029] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention.
