1. A wheel chair comprising a pair of generally parallel spaced vertical scissor frames extending fore and aft of the chair, a seat frame, a back rest frame, means for detachably connecting a portion of one of the scissor frames with respect to the seat frame to hold the scissor frames and the chair erect, said means being releasable to allow the scissor frames to fold into general parallelism with and in close association to the seat frame, and means pivotally mounting the back rest frame with respect to the seat frame to allow it to move into parallel relationship therewith, hand wheels rotatably mounted on the scissor frames adjacent the point of pivotal connections of said scissor frames, driving wheels rotatably mounted on one of said scissor frames, a chain connecting the wheels so that the hand wheels drive the driving wheels, the driving wheels being located at the rear of the chair and the hand wheel being intermediate of the ends of the frames and means to adjust the tension of the chain. 2. The wheel chair of claim 1 wherein the axis of the driving wheels is adjacent the rear of the seat frame. 3. The wheel chair of claim 1 wherein the means for tensioning the chain comprises a pair of studs one of which is in relatively fixed position and the other of which is eccentrically mounted with respect thereto. 4. The wheel chair of claim 1 wherein the detachable connection means includes a safety lock mounted on the seat frame at the under side thereof and engagable with a portion of one of said scissor frames holding said wheel chair in extended condition. 5. The wheel chair of claim 1 including a disc mounted with respect to the axis of said hand wheel between the hand wheel and the chain, to protect the hand of the user on the hand wheel from engaging with the chain. 6. The wheel chair of claim 1 including arm rests, and means mounting said arm rest to swivel, said swivel means being located adjacent the back rest frame, so the arm rests are adapted to swivel outwardly. 7. The wheel chair of claim 6 including means for detachably connecting said arm rests with respect to said seat frame. 8. A wheel chair comprising a pair of scissor frames which are interpivoted, said scissor frames extending fore and aft of the chair and each including a forward cross member, a seat frame pivoted with respect to one of said scissor frames, a lock on said seat frame engagable with a portion of the other scissor frame at the forward cross member thereof, hand wheels rotatably mounted at the intersection of said scissor frames at either side of the wheel chair, sprockets on the hand wheels, a guard between each hand wheel and the chain, driving wheels mounted on the scissor frame having the locking engagement with said seat frame, sprockets on the driving wheels, and chains engaged with said sprockets, and means for adjusting the tension of said chain, said last named means including adjustable eccentric devices.
