Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coach with a lift device as a boarding aid for wheelchair users, especially a coach as usual Hochbodenbus with a side door associated entry area, which has a pedestal underbody level and a staircase with several steps from the pedestal to the raised floor.
  • a well-known boarding aid for wheelchair users consists of an inclined lift as a stairlift, with which the wheelchair users sitting in the wheelchair along the stairs to the raised floor is pulled up obliquely.
  • This entry aid also has a number of disadvantages: the passage for a wheelchair with a wheelchair user must be at least so large due to legal requirements that a cuboid with a height of 1,350 mm, a length of 1,200 mm and a width of 800 mm standardized wheelchair can be transported by wheelchair. This requires compared to a standard series door a relatively higher special door of at least 2.5 m in height. As a result, the vehicle structure must be changed with a breakthrough in the parapet and the skeleton must rebuild the door frame in a complex manner.
  • the object of the invention is in contrast to further develop a generic touring coach with a lift device as a boarding aid for wheelchair users so that no interferences and changes in the vehicle structure are required for a wheelchair user pleasant function.
  • the lift device is designed as a vertical lift, wherein the pedestal in the entry area as a plate-shaped lifting platform from a lower-level home position is vertically displaceable in a lifting position to the level of the raised floor.
  • the basic idea according to the invention therefore consists in placing a wheelchair user in the wheelchair on the pedestal and transporting it vertically upwards in the access area, for which purpose the door opening of a standard door is sufficient in size.
  • a vertical lift can be easily and inexpensively manufactured with good and safe function.
  • the pedestal area in front of the stairs is dimensioned relatively narrow in conventional constructions, so that the stairs the passenger compartment in the transverse direction as little as possible cuts.
  • a narrow platform surface is not yet suitable as an accessible lifting platform surface for receiving a wheelchair.
  • the stairs with their steps as a staircase, which is at least partially displaceable from the entry area under the raised floor in a release position to increase the accessible platform surface or to increase the liftable HubbühnenION from its basic position close to the entry edge.
  • the required platform depth or lifting platform depth of at least 1,200 mm can be created according to the legal requirements.
  • Structurally simple and inexpensive this measure can be carried out in that aligned on both sides of the staircase in the direction of displacement guide devices, preferably roller guides are mounted according to a drawer extension.
  • a shift of the staircase can basically be done manually.
  • an actuatable motor drive is proposed, with which the staircase optionally radio-controlled between its basic position and its release position is displaced.
  • As a drive at least one cost-effective and reliable pneumatic cylinder drive can be used.
  • the top stairway step of the stairs should therefore be designed as flush in its basic position with the floor level floor pivoting part, which rests on the staircase and is pivotable downwards.
  • this should preferably be connected via at least one hinge in the manner of a piano hinge or film hinge with the adjacent floor, such that when moving the staircase into its release position, the support of the bottom pivot part is released so that it folds down and a backward shift the floor box is moved automatically back to its pivoted basic position of the staircase.
  • an extension device is proposed on the lifting platform, preferably as double-sided roller guides corresponding to a drawer extension, such that the lifting platform is at the level of the underbody level from its basic position the entry area in an extended position is extendable.
  • the plate-shaped lifting platform should be held on the extension device by means of a lowering device.
  • the lowering device can be realized, for example, as a scissors rack and / or with chains or traction ropes and rollers. With such a lowering device, the lifting platform can be lowered in its extended position on the ground in front of the entry area into a lowered position. After a wheelchair user has driven onto the lowered lifting platform, it can be raised again and retracted into the entry area. Preferably, these movements are performed under motor control. Simple and cost-effective, this is possible with a pneumatic cylinder drive.
  • a vertical lift for the retracted in the entry area lifting platform can be used advantageously a fork lift, which can be designed in a similar function similar to a forklift and can be easily integrated into the confined spaces of the boarding area.
  • a lifting device forked parts are provided, which engage with each other spaced therefrom optionally supported by the extension device lifting platform.
  • the lifting device comprises vertical guide rails respectively assigned to the forked parts mounted there, which guide rails are arranged on a transverse wall of the access area with a length from the lower lifting platform basic position to the raised floor.
  • the fork parts are coupled together and controlled by motor height in height along the guide rails adjustable. As movement-transmitting elements, cables and / or spindles, etc.
  • the lifting platform and a wheelchair standing thereon can be moved from its lower basic position to a high-floor flush position and back so that a comfortable entry and exit of a wheelchair user in the coach is thus possible in particular in connection with the extension and retraction procedure of the lifting platform ,
  • a toilet door for an adjacent bus toilet is arranged in the entry area.
  • the guide rails can be arranged on a transverse wall of the boarding area with respect to such a toilet door, so that their usual position and function is not limited. Particularly advantageous so that the bus toilet in the lower basic position of the lifting platform can also be used comfortably and without restrictions with the wheelchair.
  • the shaft-shaped cutout of the access area is delimited at the top of the raised floor by at least one safety fence which can be lowered into the raised floor. Such a lowering allows unobstructed leaving the Hubbühnen Anlagens, after which the barrier can be moved back to its operating position.
  • the safety function of such a barrier is automated in that the at least one barrier can be lowered by a motor and coupled mechanically and / or with the height adjustment of the lifting platform.
  • the barrier is to be moved automatically in the lowered position in the upper lifting position of the lifting platform and vice versa extended in the lower basic position of the lifting platform and optionally in intermediate positions in their locking functional position.
  • a relatively displaceable to the raised floor platform which has at least the size of the footprint of a wheelchair and the delimiting the lifting platform in its upper stroke position is displaced and away from there is displaceable to other high ground areas. This allows a wheelchair user to drive from the lifting platform to the movable platform and change. By shifting it, it can reach all places adjacent to the sliding area on the platform in the bus.
  • the raised floor in its longitudinal center on a lower longitudinal corridor on which both sides are arranged at a higher ground level the bus seats.
  • the projecting platform can advantageously be arranged displaceably along such a longitudinal passage at its upper side, preferably by means of double-sided roller guides. If bus seats with known fast connections solvable attached, they can be removed accordingly quickly and shelves for wheelchairs are created. With the help of the sliding platform, the coach can be flexibly loaded with many wheelchairs, whereby individual arrangements are possible. It is thus advantageous also using the platform and the lifting platform for each wheelchair user toilet use possible.
  • the displacement of the platform can be carried out under motor control.
  • a radio control optionally in conjunction with a radio control for the lifting platform.
  • Such control can be performed by an operator or possibly also with corresponding remote control devices directly by Rolistuhlplainn.
  • Fig. 1 is a partial view of a coach 1 with a side entry area 2 shown schematically.
  • a staircase is arranged in a conventional manner, which leads from a lower pedestal 4 to a raised floor 5 of the bus 1.
  • a wheelchair 6 is schematically drawn, which together with a wheelchair user (not shown) through the access area 2 on the raised floor 5, possibly without assistance to arrive.
  • step height marked with 390 mm
  • the passage dimensions and movement sequences are to be dimensioned so that the drawn cuboid with a length of 1,200 mm, a width of 800 mm and a height of 1,350 mm can be transported, as these cuboid dimensions as normalized sizes for a wheelchair with wheelchair users legally determined and are prescribed.
  • the staircase 3 is formed as a one-piece staircase 7, which is inserted in the vehicle transverse direction from the pedestal area under the raised floor 5 on a both sides and bottom side (not shown in detail) roller guide (arrow 8).
  • This inserted release position for enlarging the pedestal area is in plan view Fig. 2 shown schematically with the dashed box 9.
  • Fig. 2 is also shown schematically that the top step 10 is pivotally hinged (pivot axis 11) is hinged to the raised floor 5 and thereby automatically collapses during insertion of the staircase 7 and is accordingly pivoted in a backward displacement of the staircase 7 in its tread position.
  • the pedestal 4 is formed as a plate-shaped lifting platform 12 which is extendable on both sides roller guides 13, 14 from the entry area 2 in height of the subsoil level in front of the bus 1. This is in the top view Fig. 2 dashed and indicated by arrow 15. In Fig. 3 the extended position of the lifting platform 12 is shown in a perspective view.
  • Fig. 4 the front rail parts 13, 14 of the roller guides of the extension device are shown, wherein the rear rail parts, as shown in FIG Fig. 7 seen mounted on forks 17, 18 of a fork pin 19, as described in more detail below.
  • Out Fig. 4 is also the lowering mechanism of the lowering can be seen, which consists of a pneumatic cylinder 20 as a controllable drive and two cable guides 21, 22, to where the lifting platform 12 is suspended for a uniform horizontal lowering (the same arrangement is also required on the rail 14, but omitted there for clarity).
  • the fork lift 19 is used as a vertical lift, with details in Fig. 7 and 8th is shown.
  • vertical guide rails 24, 25 are arranged on a transverse wall 26 of the access area 2, which extend from the floor level to the floor level.
  • the transverse wall 26 lies opposite a transverse wall, which contains a (not shown) toilet door with subsequent bus toilet.
  • the fork parts 17, 18 of the fork pin 19 are mounted on the guide rails 24, 25 on one side and guided vertically adjustable.
  • two spaced and driven by an electric motor 27 chain drives 28, 29 are used.
  • the assembly or assembly could also be operated pneumatically or hydraulically by means of appropriate cylinders, the chains would then connect, for example, the individual components.
  • the lifting platform 12 mounted on the fork parts 17, 18 via the roller guides 13, 14 is displaceable from its lower basic position into the upper raised position flush with the floor, possibly together with a wheelchair.
  • Fig. 10 As a security element is also above the transverse wall 26 a lowered into the raised floor 5, bow-shaped barrier 30 is arranged. How out Fig. 10 can be seen, is a suitable place for the wheelchair 6 subsequent to the extended barrier 30. To reach this space, it is necessary that the area of the barrier 30 is run over by the wheelchair 6 (arrow 31), so that in particular the barrier 30 at the position of the lifting platform 12 must be lowered in its upper stroke position.
  • Fig. 8 represented by a mechanical motion coupling solved by the barrier 30 engages with drivers 32 in the rear chain areas of the chain drives 28, 29 such that at a vertical displacement (arrow 33) of the fork parts 17, 18 or an increase in the lifting platform 12 coupled and automatically the Restraint 30 is pulled down (arrow 34).
  • the barrier 30 automatically returns to its functional position Fig. 10 extended.
  • Fig. 10 also indicated by dashed lines, a plurality of wheelchairs 6 can be loaded one after the other and transported in a row.
  • the high floor 5 as in most coaches has a lowered in level aisle 35, a total free ride of the wheelchairs with any choice of location is not possible.
  • a platform 36 is slidably mounted on the central aisle 35 and on both sides (not shown in detail) roller guides, which is moved to the back of the bus when not in use in a parked position and controlled by a drive displaceable in use along the central aisle 35 is.
  • FIG. 11 shown can in addition to the wheelchair 6 another wheelchair 37 raised to the floor level 5 with the lifting platform 12 and moved to the displaced before the lifting platform 12 platform 36 (arrow 38).
  • the lifting platform 36 can then be moved together with the wheelchair 37 in a front area (arrow 39), so that then the wheelchair 37 again leaves the platform 36 (arrow 40) and can be parked here before the construction 41 of a bus toilet.
  • the coach can be partially or completely filled with wheelchairs.
