PASSENGER TRANSFER SUPPORT APPARATUS

To smoothly transfer a chair-seated care-given person to a passenger transfer support apparatus.SOLUTION: A passenger transfer support apparatus includes: retention means for retaining a care-given person; movement means for moving the retention means vertically; a belt member for pulling a chair-seated care-given person toward the retention means; wind-up means for pulling the care-given person toward the retention means by winding up the belt member; and control means for controlling the movement means and wind-up means. The control means controls the movement means so that the retention means inserted between a femoral region of the care-given person and a seat surface of the chair descends, lowering the seat surface of the chair, and controls the wind-up means so as to pull the care-given person to a position on the retention means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】椅子に着座した状態の被介護者を移乗支援装置にスムーズに載せ替えること。【解決手段】移乗支援装置は、被介護者を保持する保持手段と、保持手段を上下方向へ移動させる移動手段と、椅子に着座した状態の被介護者を保持手段側へ引張るベルト部材と、ベルト部材を巻き取ることで被介護者を保持手段側へ引張る巻取手段と、移動手段及び巻取手段を制御する制御手段と、を備える。制御手段は、被介護者の大腿部と椅子の座面との間に挿入された保持手段が下降し椅子の座面を押下げるように、移動手段を制御し、被介護者を保持手段上の位置まで引き寄せるように、巻取手段を制御する。【選択図】図１
