A main frame (11), supporting main wheels (25) at different wheel positions, is coupled to a seat erection frame (13) by a parallogram linkage. To permit matching of the erecting chair to different-size persons, for example so that it can “grow”with growth of a child for whom it is initially purchased, the parallelogram linkage (45) connecting the back (35) to the frame (13) can be provided in interchangeable sets of different-length links (45a, 45b) to respectively move the back (35) in different positions with respect to the front edge (34a) of the seat, the ground support (37) likewise being adjustable to accommodate differently tall patients, adjustment of the seat with respect to ground level being additionally obtained by adjusting the height of front caster wheels (27) with respect to the main frame. The position of the main wheels (25) can be relocated with respect to the center of the seat (33) by different pivot locations on the main frame.

A size adjustable erecting wheelchair, particularly a collapsible wheelchair, comprising a main frame (11); two main wheels (25); at least one caster wheel (27); at least one caster wheel support means (47) supporting the caster wheel from the frame; a seat-erecting frame (13); means for defining a
A size adjustable erecting wheelchair, particularly a collapsible wheelchair, comprising a main frame (11); two main wheels (25); at least one caster wheel (27); at least one caster wheel support means (47) supporting the caster wheel from the frame; a seat-erecting frame (13); means for defining a pivot axis (15) on said main frame; means (24) for securing the main wheels to the frame, having at least two spaced bearing positions (24, 24′) located at different distances from said axis (15) for selective positioning of the main wheels closer to, or farther away from, said axis; said seat-erecting frame including a seat (33) having a forward edge (34a) located by a predetermined distance from said axis, and a back edge (34b), a back rest (35) located close to the top surface of the seat at a predetermined distance from said front edge, foot rest support struts (37) and ground supports (38) secured to the struts, said struts connecting the ground support to the seat such that, in the seating position, the ground supports are spaced from ground level (G) while in the erected position, the ground supports (38) are resting on the ground (G), the seat-erecting frame pivoting with respect to said pivot axis (15); and a parallelogram linkage (45; 45a, 45b, 45c) connecting the backrest (35), the seat, and said footrest support struts to the main frame (11) and pivotable about said pivot axis, to keep the backrest upright in each position of the seat of the chair with respect to the main frame (11) and to position the ground supports (38) on ground (G) upon erection of the chair, wherein the parallelogram linkage (45, 45a, 45b, 45c) comprises link means of varying lengths for selective positioning of the backrest (35) closer to, or farther away from, said axis (15) to permit relative adjustment of the length of the seat; said at least one caster wheel support means (47) being of variable length to permit adjustment of the height of the front edge (34a) of the seat with respect to ground level (G); and wherein the struts (37) are adjustable in length and matched to the length of the caster wheel support means (47), for placement of the ground support (38) on the ground level (G) when the chair is in the erected position, and to raise the ground supports (38) off the ground level (G) when the chair is in the seating position to provide for clearance of the ground supports from the ground level and free rolling of the chair by said main wheel and said at least one caster wheel, while permitting relative adjustment of the height of the seat with respect to ground level, and while maintaining the pivoting relationship of the parallelogram linkage with respect to said axis (15).
