Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0312969A2] A wheelchair having opposing sideframes (12, 14) which comprise individual frame sections (20-23) which are connected by a longitudinally and angularly adjustable joint. The frame sections (20-23) include a fixed base section (20) connected to linear bar sections (21, 22, 23). The bar sections (21, 22, 23) are provided with lateral slots (24) containing slidable fasteners (25). Link elements (35) having fasteners (37) that engage the slidable fasteners (25) join together the bar sections (21, 22, 23). The joint is movable along the bar section slots and is rotatable about the link fasteners (37). Similarly, adjunct wheelchair assemblies may all be adjustably connected to the slidable fasteners (25) of selected frame bar sections. The sideframes (12, 14) can include side braces (41) and may be connected by laterally adjustable spacer bars (60-63).
