Staircase hoist for wheelchair users
The present technology relates to a staircase hoist for wheelchair users in family life and in public facilities. Steps and staircases in stations and other facilities form a major obstacle to wheelchair users. Particularly in cities --where there are many high-rise buildings-- public buildings such as libraries, city halls and stations, and shopping centers and other places frequently utilized by disabled persons, opportunities for disabled persons to actively participate in society are quite limited by a lack of consideration relating to movement of such persons. In this context, to support such participation there is an urgent need to develop simple systems that permit disabled persons to go up and down stairs. The present technology provides a staircase hoist for wheelchair users that has a straightforward structure, is readily installed, simple to maintain, inexpensive, and safe. This technology also provides a staircase hoist for wheelchair users that does not hinder the movement of non-disabled persons. The fixed system structures of this staircase hoist do not get in the way of non-disabled persons, and the movable portions can be stored away when not in use. This staircase hoist enables wheelchair users to use staircases.FIG shows embodiment staircase hoist wheelchair users pair guide rails (3) wall (2) parallel the follow angle flight (1) (5) carrying occupant along enabling readily go stairs
