PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wheelchair capable of retaining tensile force of an endless belt without performing troublesome adjustment such as rotatingly operating an adjustment screw.SOLUTION: The wheelchair comprises a groundable belt movement mechanism 9 at a lower part of a seat frame, where the belt movement mechanism 9 includes a belt frame 43, front/rear pulleys 41 and 42, and a groundable endless belt 44. The belt frame 43 includes a linkage member 61 that is longitudinally movably retained by the rear part thereof. A support shaft 62 of the rear pulley 42 is erected on the rear part of the linkage member 61. The belt frame 43 includes repulsive means 63 that makes the linkage member 61 rebound rearward so as to apply the tensile force to the endless belt 44.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】 調整ねじを回転操作するような面倒な調整を行うことなく、無端ベルトの張力を適性状態に保持できる車椅子を提供する。【解決手段】 座席フレームの下部に接地可能なベルト移動機構9が設けられ、ベルト移動機構9はベルトフレーム43と前後のプーリ41,42と接地可能な無端ベルト44とを備えた車椅子であって、ベルトフレーム43の後部に連動部材61が長手方向移動自在に保持され、この連動部材61の後部に後プーリ42の支持軸62が架設され、ベルトフレーム43内に、無端ベルト44に張力を付与すべく連動部材61を後方に向けて弾発する弾発手段63が設けられている。【選択図】図1
