Definitions

  • the object of this invention is a new way of moving a backrest, called dynamic because it remains in contact with the back of the person sitting on the seat.
  • this new backrest is particularly suitable for use in wheelchairs for disabled people.
  • the inclinable backrest allows the user to vary the angle of inclination with respect to the seat.
  • This gas pump helps and makes things easier for the operator when the backrest has to come back to its original erect configuration and prevents any dangerous falls and/or overturning of the backrest itself.
  • the actuators are always of the irreversible type, and therefore the position set for the inclination of the backrest is fixed also in this eventuality.
  • the disabled person very often requires having the backrest at an angle and not erect at 90° with respect to the seat.
  • the invention consists of having an inclinable or articulated backrest at any type of pre-fixed angulation, while keeping the possibility of a further inclination within a preestablished range.
  • This innovation can be configured differently for manual wheelchairs and electrical ones, while still maintaining an equivalent effect.
  • this movement is effective as set out below when applied to wheelchairs for the disabled.
  • a gas pump can be used as a pliable elastic element that deadens unexpected and sudden inclinations of the backrest with an appropriate preload, and which resists with proportionally increasing force the speed of sudden changes of angulation of said backrest.
  • a gas pump which can be chosen for its appropriate strength, with respect to the need to counter various stresses on the basis of the physical build of the user, renders the movement slow and smooth, dissipating the energy and bringing the backrest slowly back to the pre-set inclination.
  • This pliable elastic element can be placed either below the chair or at the top rear part of the backrest, and very usefully it can be activated or deactivated using levers on the rear handle or else using a control available to the user.
  • this pliable elastic element In the case where the installation of this pliable elastic element is behind the backrest, it can usefully be connected to the components for adjusting the inclination of the backrest and inserted between the two restraints, one on the backrest and the other on the frame that supports the seat; where preferably said restraints are hinges.
  • this is configured as a kinematic chain where the adjustment and fixing components and said pliable elastic element are hinged on a plate on which are hinged at least one end of the backrest and/or at least one end of the frame that supports the seat.
  • this adjustment consists of a housing for the pliable elastic element fitted with a system for adjustable fixing, and, in the case of a circular gas pump, it is a perforated tubular element inside whose holes is to be fixed the end fixing plug of the gas pump inside said tubular element.
  • This gas pump 5 for making adjustments has one end 6 hinged onto the frame of the backrest 2.
  • This gas pump 5 for making adjustments has one end 6 hinged onto the frame of the backrest 2.
  • figs. 1 and 2 we can see the extreme upper and lower positions that the end 6 can take on.
  • the body of the adjustment gas pump 5 is solidly joined to the body of the dynamic pump 7, whose end 8 is hinged to the frame, generally but not essentially, of the chair 3.
  • the user or the companion After having fixed the position of the backrest at the desired angle with respect to the chair, in the example shown by rendering the adjustment gas pump 5 free, inclining the backrest 2 and again locking the adjustment gas pump 5 (but in a generic way releasing the fixing device, inclining the backrest and restoring the fixing device to the new angled position of the backrest 2), the user or the companion, in order to activate the new movement, release, using a special control 9, in the diagrams shown as a lever 9 near a handle 11, that can be made permanent with a lock 10, the dynamic pump 7 acting on the end 8 placing cable 12 under traction.
  • the backrest 2 is free to oscillate following the stresses of the user, in permanent contact with his back.
  • Figs. 6 to 10 show the new movement applied to an elevating wheelchair with the inclination of the backrest 14 articulated with respect to the chair 15, or applied to its support frame.
  • a dynamic gas pump 16 was adopted, positioned under the seat.
  • the dynamic gas pump can be released using a cable 27 that is put under traction by a lever 18 positioned near the handle 19. This lever 18 can be blocked by a lock 20.
  • the maximum angulation range that the backrest can assume with the unrestricted dynamic gas pump is shown in fig. 8 .
  • this dynamic gas pump 16 is hinged 17 near the front part of the seat 15, i.e. the part near the knee of the user, and a second end, near the rear part of the wheelchair, is hinged 18 to a plate 22 configured as a lever 19 at the base of which the backrest 14 and the seat 15 are hinged.
  • This lever 19 is shaped as a cam 20 in order to act directly on the release device 21 of the dynamic gas pump 16.
  • the cam 20 operates by releasing the dynamic gas pump 16, preventing dangerous traumas in the spine area that could occur when the user of the companion do not release the dynamic gas pump 16 when it is elevating.
  • One end of a hinged 25 servo actuator 26 acts on said plate 23, the opposite end of said actuator being hinged to the frame of the seat 14.
  • this servo actuator 26 The function of this servo actuator 26 is to recline the backrest 14 independently or in a manner correlated to the correlation of the seat 15 (or the frame that supports it).
  • the housing of the dynamic gas pump 16 has a series of holes in which a plug can be applied for fixing one end of the dynamic gas pump 16; these holes 28 allow the above-mentioned dynamic gas pump 16 to be installed, because they can regulate the extension of the dynamic inclination of the backrest, setting an eventual preload, adapting to any extensions to the depth of the seat in order to adapt to the build of the user and finally to reduce to a limited dynamic inclination of the backrest 14 when it is upright vertical position together with the seat 15.
  • lever 24 configured as a cam, whose operation is similar to that shown of the cam on the lever 19.
