PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lifting device for a vehicle in which the reeling part of a seat belt can be installed with sufficient strength against a pulling force toward the front side of the vehicle at such a height as to easily operate the seat belt in a simple configuration using a handrail.SOLUTION: The handrail 46 erected at one end of mounting body 1 in a lateral width direction, and gripped by a passenger seated in a wheelchair comprises: a body frame 47 which is equipped with a pair of longitudinal frames 47a lined up in an anteroposterior direction of the vehicle and a gripping frame 47b extending in the anteroposterior direction of the vehicle, and is formed in an inverted U-shape and a reinforcement frame 48 which is installed at the pair of longitudinal frames 47b in an inclined posture wherein the rearer the anteroposterior direction of the vehicle is, the more upwardly the reinforcement frame is positioned. A seat belt device 52 for holding the passenger seated in the wheelchair in the wheelchair comprises a belt reeling part 53 supported near a combining position of the reinforcement frame 48 in the handrail 46 and the longitudinal frame 47a at the rear side.COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT【課題】手すりを利用した簡素な構成にて、シートベルトの巻き取り部を車両前方側への引っ張り力に対して十分な強度で且つベルトの操作が行い易い高さに設けることができる車両用昇降装置を提供する。【解決手段】載置体1の横幅方向の一端部に立設されて車椅子に着座した搭乗者が把持する手すり46が、車両前後方向に並ぶ一対の縦枠部分47aと車両前後方向に伸びる把持用枠部分47bとを備える逆U字状に形成された本体枠部47と、車両前後方向の後方側ほど上方に位置する傾斜姿勢で一対の縦枠部分47bに架設された補強枠部48とを備えて構成され、車椅子に着座した搭乗者を車椅子に保持するシートベルト装置52が、手すり46における補強枠部48と後方側の縦枠部分47aとの連結箇所近くに支持されたベルト巻き取り部53を備えて構成する。【選択図】図7
