In a method for moving a person (30) of limited mobility there is used a wheelchair (1) having a back part (2) and a leg support or foot-support part (4), these parts being pivotally connected to an intermediate seat part (3) and being pivotable between a sitting position, in which the parts form an angle with one another, and a horizontal position in which the aforementioned parts are substantially in register with one another. These parts of the wheelchair can also be swung about a further pivot point (6) located in the region of the centre of gravity of the person (30) occupying the wheelchair. The seat part (3) and back part (2) of the wheelchair are swung about the further pivot point (6), with their mutual relative positions unchanged, until the major part of the pivotal movement of the back part towards its horizontal position has been completed. The seat part (3) and the back part (2) are then rotated in mutually opposite directions to a position in which they lie in register with one another in a horizontal plane. The pivotal movements and variations in the height of the wheelchair can be effected with the aid of electrically operated screw-drive means (S1, S2 and S3). |
