| An engagement fixture of a shoulder belt is connected to and supported by an engagement buckle disposed in a vehicle interior. When a platform is positioned in a getting in/out position in a vehicle exterior, the engagement fixture of the shoulder belt can be temporarily connected to a temporary fastening fixture provided to the platform. To the contrary, when the platform is positioned in a loading position in a vehicle interior, a connection condition of the engagement fixture of the shoulder belt can be changed from a temporary connection of the fastening fixture to a securely supportable connection of an engagement buckle in the vehicle interior. Thus, it is possible to simplify a belt attaching operation after a wheelchair is loaded in a vehicle while a columnar support member used in the conventional platform is abolished. | ||||||

| Disclosed is a vehicle driver wheelchair lift, the lift having a bearing mount fixed to the vehicle that rotationally captures a pivot rod to which a pair of forks are attached by a parallelogram linkage. The rod rotates in the bearing to move the forks horizontally in and out of the vehicle, while the parallelogram linkage expands and contracts to raise and lower the forks. The purpose of the parallel linkage is to allow the forks to move vertically while maintaining a horizontal position. The forks are adapted to engage a pair of horizontal fork receivers fixed to a wheelchair. A vertical linear actuator expands and contracts the linkage to raise and lower the forks vertically. A motor turns the pivot rod to rotate the forks horizontally. In one exemplary embodiment, a lock on the forks secures the receivers and chair on the forks and a sensor signals when the receivers are in locked position suitable for raising and lowering. In one exemplary embodiment, the parallel linkage has outwardly offset lower joints to establish a preset raised position at maximum extension. | ||||||
