Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0214838A2] A wheelchair locator is proposed for use mainly in vehicles which are designed for able-bodied passengers but are capable of being adapted to carry a wheelchair passenger who remains in his wheelchair. An inertia reel (9) controls a retractable flexible safety belt (10) which has attachments (12) to secure it releasably to the frame of the wheelchair. The occupant of the wheelchair pulls the belt agains the retracting force and attaches it to convenient spaced points on the chair; then when the belt pulls the chair securely against a supporting surface the reel is locked and the chair is held in place. In a taxi the locking and unlocking of the reel may be controlled by the driver.
