APPARATUS FOR ADJUSTING INCLINATION OF WHEELS IN WHEEL-CHAIRS

摘要

Each wheel (1) is mounted on a wheel axle especially of a wheelchair (2). The position of the wheels is adjustable in an axle-holder (4) fixed to a frame (3). The mounting part of the wheel is guided along a curved track positioned so that the top part (5) of the wheel remains the same distance (A) from the wheel-chair frame in every adjusted position of the wheel camber. The part of the wheel axle pointing towards the wheel is mounted in a bushing swivel mounted in the axle-holder and whose other end is mounted in a guide groove.
