摘要:
The invention is referring to the field of the art of fire-fighting vehicles, rescue vehicles and ambulances, proposing specifically the construction of a multi-functional vehicle which, with the properly disposed equipment and ergonomy, can combine and accomplish all three missions, that is, fire fighting, freeing and rescuing injured entrapped persons and subsquently transportation of these injured persons after, mainly, a car accident. According to the preferred embodiment this single multi-functional vehicle by itself replaces at least three vehicles—that is a fire fighting, a rescue vehicle and two ambulances, having as crew only three persons.

A lift-up mechanism (50, 150) installed inside a vehicle serves to move a seat unit (10, 110) into or out of the vehicle. The seat unit (10, 110) is used as a passenger seat inside the vehicle and as a wheelchair outside the vehicle. Connecting plates (56, 156) are disposed on the lift-up mechanism (50, 150) permit the lift-up mechanism (50, 150) to be connected to the seat unit (10, 110) by inserting the connecting plates into connecting recesses (40, 140) formed in the seat unit (10, 110). Front wheels (60, 160) and rear wheels (70, 170) of the seat unit (10, 110) can be retracted and extended. A drive unit having an electric motor or similar drive may be provided to retract and extend the front wheels (60, 160) and the rear wheels (70, 170). An attitude changing arrangement may be provided to automatically change the attitude of the front wheels (60, 160) when the front wheels (60, 160) and the rear wheels (70, 170) are retracted.

In a device for transfering especially a person sitting in a wheel-chair between a platform and a passenger department of a vehicle having a floor on a higher level than the platform a first floor surface (5) is arranged inside the vehicle closest to an entrance (2) into the vehicle from a platform side and arranged on substantially the same level as the platform. Power means are adapted to move a support surface (6) arranged inside the vehicle and reachable through the first floor surface (5) between platform level and the level of the floor of the passenger department so as to join a first floor surface and a second floor surface (10) leading to the passenger department or belonging thereto, respectively. A staircase (8) is arranged between the two levels beside the support surface (6) and directly reachable through the first floor surface (5) as well as the second floor surface (10) independently of the position of the support surface (6).

The invention is directed to an apparatus to attract a missing person in a search and rescue operation. The apparatus includes a vehicle having a body; a plurality of equipment for use in response to a search and rescue emergency disposed within and on the vehicle, the plurality including a siren and a beacon; a power source for powering at least the siren and the beacon; and a circuit coupled to the siren and the beacon for controlling the siren and the beacon.
摘要:
A fitting is provided which facilitates the loading of a stretcher onto a platform, such as the bay of an ambulance. The fitting includes a pivotable mounting having a trailing larger diameter wheel and a leading smaller diameter wheel. Pivoting is such that the leading wheel is adapted to ride up onto the platform and then pivot downwardly allowing the trailing wheel to ride up over the rear edge of the platform as the stretcher is pushed into the ambulance. A skid block is preferably formed integrally with the mounting.
摘要:
A wheelchair apparatus that provides an unobstructed seating platform for loading and unloading the user; that does not require a caregiver to lift the user's entire body during transfer on to or off of the chair; that provides a seating platform that can be positioned directly over a bed thereby eliminating the need to carry or move a patient over a gap or across an entire bed; and that reduces the number of necessary transfers on and off the chair during a twenty-four hour period by providing an integral toileting platform thereby allowing the chaired user to stay in the chair while using a pre-existing toilet.
摘要:
A wheelchair system for transferring a handicapped person onto an automobile seat includes a wheeled chassis whose front end is rolled beneath an automobile door opening, a horizontally extending base member, and a rotatable mounting mechanism for the base member. The rotatable mounting mechanism includes a first actuating linkage and a first driven member therefor. The wheelchair system also includes a chair supporting frame located centrally of the chassis and removably mounted on the base member. This chair supporting frame includes an adjusting mechanism for vertically adjusting a support thereof. A handle assembly is removably mounted to the chassis and includes a second linkage for rotating the first driven member. This second linkage includes a removable driving member which removably connects to the first driven member as the handle is removed and connected to the chassis, and a second driven member at an opposite end thereof.
摘要:
A plastic vehicle body attachment system for a motor vehicle. The attachment system includes a metal support, a plastic panel having an aperture, and a fastener. The fastener is disposed in the aperture and detachably couples the plastic panel to the metal support. The fastener is smaller than the aperture by an amount that varies in relation to the distance between the fastener and a fixed point on the composite panel such that the size of the aperture increases as the distance between the fastener and the fixed point increases.
