[0027] The above-mentioned seat cushion (100) is configured to have a predetermined thickness and area so that a user with difficulty walking can sit on it. At this time, the seat cushion is equipped with a shock-absorbing material (not shown), such as styrofoam, inside to provide a comfortable seating state while mitigating driving shocks (shocks transmitted to the user from speed bumps, irregular road surfaces, etc.) that occur during the operation of the low-floor bus.

[0028] The above backrest cushion (110) is installed so as to be located on the rear side of the seat cushion (100) so that the user can lean their back against it, and it is preferable that a shock absorbing material such as styrofoam be installed inside to protect the user from forward and backward shaking and stopping shock (shock generated when stopping due to brake operation) that occurs while the low-floor bus is in motion.

[0029] The seat cushion (100) and backrest cushion (110) are configured to be supported by a steel seat frame (200) to increase the safety of the wheelchair.

[0030] In one embodiment, the seat frame (200) is composed of a seat frame (210) that supports the seat cushion (100) and a backrest frame (230) that is installed upright on the rear side of the seat frame (210) to support the backrest cushion (110).

[0031] The above-mentioned seating frame (210) may be composed of a seating frame (211) forming a skeletal frame and a seating plate (212) connecting both sides in the width direction of the seating frame (211) on which the seating cushion part (100) is seated and fixed.

[0032] Additionally, the backrest frame (230) may be composed of a backrest frame (231) that forms the frame of the backrest frame, with the lower longitudinal side fixed to the seat frame (211); a fixing block (232) that connects both sides of the backrest frame (231) in the width direction and is fixed so that the backrest cushion part (110) is in close contact with it; and a reinforcing frame (233) that is spaced upward from the fixing block (232) and has both longitudinal sides connected to both sides of the backrest frame (231) in the width direction.

[0033] At this time, an "L" shaped reinforcing member (260) may be installed to cover the lower longitudinal side of the backrest frame (231) and the rear side of the seat frame (211) to reinforce the rigidity of the connection part.

[0034] In addition, square frame-shaped armrests (220) are installed on both sides of the seat frame (210) in the width direction so that a wheelchair user can place their hands on them, and an extension frame (221) extending in the direction of the ground is installed on the lower side of the armrests (220), and a small wheel member (222) of the wheelchair is rotatably installed on the front lower side of the extension frame (221).

[0035] At this time, it is preferable that the lower side of the armrest (220) be fixedly installed on the side of the reinforcing installation member (260) and the seat frame (211).

[0036] In addition, the shock absorbing part (300) is installed on the seat frame part (200) and is mounted on a fixed part (30) provided in the interior of the low-floor bus to absorb shock. That is, in normal times, it is fixed to the interior surface of the low-floor bus to ensure driving safety, and in response to the forward and backward shaking that occurs while driving, it absorbs the shaking shock transmitted to the user, and in the event of an impact caused by a collision of the low-floor bus, it protects the wheelchair user from the risk of accidents such as the wheelchair being thrown off or flying into the air.

[0037] It is preferable that such a shock absorbing member (300) be installed on the seat frame member (200) so as to be foldable through vertical rotation. That is, when not boarding a low-floor bus, the shock absorbing member (300) is folded and fixed in the direction of the backrest frame (230) of the seat frame member (200) so as not to interfere with the activity assistant driving the wheelchair, and after boarding the low-floor bus, the shock absorbing member (300) is lowered from the backrest frame (230) and fixed to a fixing member (30) installed on the low-floor bus to ensure the driving safety of the wheelchair.

[0038] Looking at the shock absorbing member (300) as one embodiment, the shock absorbing member (300) may be configured to include a gas damper (310) with one longitudinal side mounted on a first mounting bracket (240) installed on the seat frame member (200), and a shock absorbing spring member (320) with one longitudinal side mounted on a second mounting bracket (250) installed on the seat frame member (200).

[0039] The first and second mounting brackets (240, 250) are mounted on the fixed block (232) to enable upward rotation of the gas damper (310) and the shock-absorbing spring member (320).

[0040] A pair of gas dampers (310) may be arranged at a certain distance from each other in the width direction of the backrest frame (230), and the shock-absorbing spring member (320) may be installed so as to be placed between the pair of gas dampers.

[0041] Additionally, a folding fixing means (400) may be installed in the seat frame (200) located at an upwardly spaced position from the first and second mounting brackets (240, 250) to fix the folded shock absorber (300). That is, the folding fixing means (400) is provided on the reinforcing frame (233) to fix the upwardly rotated gas damper (310) and shock absorber spring member (320) respectively.

[0042] As an embodiment, the folding fixing means (400) may be composed of a damper fixing unit (410) that fixes the gas damper (310) and a spring fixing unit (420) that fixes the shock-absorbing spring member (320).

[0043] The above damper fixing unit (410) is installed on the reinforcing frame (233) of the backrest frame (230) and may be composed of a damper fixing bracket (411) installed on the reinforcing frame (233) and a damper fixing index plunger (412) which is installed on the damper fixing bracket (411) and configured so that a protruding insertion pin (415) can be inserted into and removed from the interior of the body (413) by rotating the rotating body (414).

[0044] The above spring fixing unit (420) may be composed of a spring fixing bracket (421) installed on the reinforcing frame (233) and a spring fixing index plunger (422) which is installed on the spring fixing bracket (421) and configured so that an inlet / outlet pin (425) can be inserted into and removed from the interior of the body (423) by rotational operation of a rotational operating member (424).

[0045] The above gas damper (310) comprises a cylinder tube (311) that is rotatably installed on one longitudinal side of the first mounting bracket (240) and a piston rod (312) that reciprocates inside the cylinder tube (311). At this time, it is preferable that a rod assembly (313) is formed at the tip of the piston rod (312), having a pin insertion hole (314) formed therein to allow the protruding insertion pin (415) to be inserted.

[0046] The shock-absorbing spring member (320) comprises a lower cap (321) provided with a lower bracket (322) rotatably connected to the second mounting bracket (250), an upper cap (323) provided with an upper bracket (324) into which the inlet / outlet pin (425) of the spring-fixing index plunger (422) can be inserted, and a compression spring (325) installed such that both longitudinal sides are connected to the lower cap (321) and the upper cap (323).

[0047] In this way, the shock absorbing unit (300), composed of a gas damper (310) and a shock absorbing spring member (320), performs the role of absorbing shock at the shock absorbing spring member when shock energy is transmitted to the wheelchair, and performs a mutually complementary role of controlling vibrations generated when energy is released from the shock absorbing spring member at the gas damper, thereby safely protecting the wheelchair occupant from shock.

[0048] To briefly examine the operation state of the gas damper (310) and shock-absorbing spring member (320), normally the gas damper (310) and shock-absorbing spring member (320) are folded toward the backrest frame (230) and fixed by the damper fixing unit (410) and spring fixing unit (420).

[0049] Then, when boarding the low-floor bus, the index plunger of the damper fixing unit (410) and the spring fixing unit (420) is operated to release the fixed state of the gas damper (310) and the shock-absorbing spring member (320), and then the gas damper (310) and the shock-absorbing spring member (320) are rotated downward and fixed to the fixing part (30) provided in the interior of the low-floor bus so that the shock-absorbing state of the wheelchair can be achieved.

[0050] At this time, it would be preferable for the fixed part (30) to be pre-mounted on the interior side of the low-floor bus in a state corresponding to the damper fixing unit (410) and the spring fixing unit (420).

[0051] This simple operation method allows the wheelchair to be positioned inside the low-floor bus in a fixed state, enabling shock absorption.

[0052] In addition, a four-point safety belt (500) may be installed in the seat frame (200) to ensure the safety of the user seated on the seat cushion (100).

[0053] That is, the above 4-point safety belt (500) prevents fall accidents in which the user is thrown out of the wheelchair due to a front-to-rear collision or sudden stopping of the low-floor bus, and allows the user to maintain a proper posture while traveling to the destination.

[0054] A four-point safety belt (500) as one embodiment may be composed of a pair of shoulder bands (510) installed vertically in front of the backrest cushion (110) to support both shoulder and chest areas of a user riding in a wheelchair, a pair of waist bands (520) installed horizontally in front of the backrest cushion (110) to support the waist area of ​​a user riding in a wheelchair and to which the pair of shoulder bands (510) are each connected, a tongue plate (530) installed at the end of one of the pair of waist bands (520), and a buckle member (540) installed at the end of the other of the pair of waist bands (520) to secure the tongue plate (530).

[0055] It is preferable that a shoulder band mounting piece (511) be installed on the longitudinal upper side of the shoulder band (510) so that the longitudinal lower side is fixed to the backrest frame (231) of the backrest frame (230) and the longitudinal upper side is installed so as to be exposed to the outside of the backrest cushion part (110).

[0056] At this time, the upper hanging part (550) may be configured to be fixedly installed on the backrest frame (231) and to consist of an upper fixing bush (551) having a mounting insertion hole (552) of a predetermined length formed from the upper side to the lower side, and an upper binding bolt (553) that is screw-coupled to the mounting insertion hole (552) of the upper fixing bush (551). Here, it is preferable that the shoulder band mounting piece (511) be installed to be caught on the upper binding bolt (553).

[0057] It is preferable that a waistband mounting piece (521) be installed on one side of the above waistband (520) so as to be hooked onto a downward hook portion (560) that is fixedly installed on the seat frame (211) of the above seat frame (210).

[0058] At this time, the lower hanging part (560) may be composed of a lower fixing bush (561) having a binding hole (563) of a predetermined depth formed therein, which is coupled to a reinforcing pipe (562) installed to connect both sides in the width direction of the seat frame (211), and a lower binding bolt (564) which is screw-coupled to the binding hole (563) of the lower fixing bush (561). Here, it is preferable that the waist band mounting piece (521) be installed to be hooked onto the lower binding bolt (564).

[0059] The above lower fixing bush (561) may be installed such that one longitudinal side extends from the reinforcing installation member (260) toward the reinforcing pipe (562), and the other longitudinal side penetrates the armrest (220) and is exposed to the outside.

[0060] In this way, the above-mentioned 4-point safety belt (500) is designed so that it can be easily installed or removed by screwing or releasing the upper and lower connecting bolts (564) to the fixing bush. Therefore, when the safety belt is not needed in normal times, it can be carried in a separate carrying space, and when using a low-floor bus or when the use of the safety belt is required, it can be quickly fastened to a wheelchair for use, thereby increasing usability.

[0061] In addition, the seat frame (200) may be equipped with a belt hook (600) that allows a downward fixing belt (40) installed on the interior floor of the low-floor bus to be connected.

[0062] That is, the belt loop (600) is firmly fixed to the seat frame (211) and, when boarding the low-floor bus, the downward fixing belt (40) provided on the interior floor is pulled and hooked onto the belt loop (600), thereby preventing the wheelchair from slipping or shaking while the vehicle is in operation.

[0063] In addition, the backrest cushion (110) may be equipped with a headrest (700) that can absorb shock while preventing neck bone damage to the user riding in the wheelchair in the event of a rear-end collision of the vehicle.

[0064] At this time, a headrest fixing means (710) for fitting a mounting rod (701) formed on the headrest (700) may be installed in the seat frame part (200).

[0065] Although specific embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail as above, those skilled in the art will be able to make various modifications without departing from the scope of the present invention.
