Abstract (en)
A wheel chair is made up of a wheeled chassis (11) and a seat (12) wherein the seat (12) and the chassis (11) are discrete, self supporting members and a demountable coupling (26, 27, 46) is provided linking the seat (12) to the chassis (11). The coupling (26, 27, 46) is operable between a first position where the coupling (36, 27, 46) secures the seat (12) to the chassis (11) and a second position where the coupling (26, 27, 46) releases the seat (12) from engagement with the chassis (11). A control linkage (39, 29, 37, 32) provides for regulating the operation of the coupling (26, 27, 46) at least from the first to the second position. A lifting point (44) is incorporated in the seat structure (40) to enable at least the seat (12) (with or without an occupant) to be lifted alone or combined with the chassis (11).
