PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wheelchair with reduced possibility of a foot falling out from a gap of the left and right foot plates.SOLUTION: The wheelchair includes: driving wheels 3; a pair of side frames 1 which freely rotatably connect the driving wheels 3 in the outer side; a foot placing arm 41 which is tiltably connected to an arm tilting axle 43 installed in the outer side of each of the pair of side frames 1 and in front from the driving wheels 3 and which is switchable to an arm extended position and an arm folded position; and a foot placing plate 42 which is connected to the tip end of each foot placing arm 41 and which can place a foot on the upper face. The foot placing arm 41 is designed so that a space between the tip end parts in the arm extended position is made narrower than the space between the tip end parts in the arm folded position.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】左右の足載プレートの隙間から足が抜け落ちる虞を低減した車椅子を提供する。【解決手段】車椅子は、駆動車輪3と、その外側に駆動車輪3を回転自在に連結している一対の両側フレーム1と、一対の両側フレーム1の各々の、その外側であって駆動車輪3よりも前方に設けられたアーム傾動軸43に傾動可能に連結され、アーム伸展位置とアーム折畳位置に切り替え可能な足載アーム41と、各足載アーム41の先端部に連結され、その上面に足を載せることができる足載プレート42と、とを備え、足載アーム41は、アーム伸展位置における先端部同士の間隔を、アーム折畳位置における先端部同士の間隔よりも狭くしてなる。【選択図】図1
