<p>A carriage 12 for receiving a wheelchair is pivotable relative to a frame 10 between a lowered position (as shown) wherein the wheelchair can be wheeled onto and off the carriage 12, and a raised position (Figure 3, not shown) wherein and wheelchair is tipped in a vertical plane. The carriage 12 is raised and lowered by an operating mechanism which is fully operated by the wheelchair occupant and which includes hand grips 63 positioned to either side of the carriage. A fluid damper 56 prevents the carriage 12 from being lowered except at a controlled relatively slow rate.</p> |
