HOLDER FOR MOUNTING AN ARM SUPPORT ON A MOVABLE CARRIER, CARRIER PROVIDED WITH SUCH A HOLDER, AND ARMREST PROVIDED WITH SUCH A HOLDER

摘要

The present invention relates to a holder for mounting an arm support on a movable carrier, particularly a wheelchair having a first position for transporting persons in a sitting position and a second position for transporting persons in a standing position, comprising a first holder part mountable on the carrier, a second holder part, connected to the first holder part for rotating at least about a rotation axis extending horizontally at least in a position of use, for mounting the arm support thereon, a sensor for generating a measurement signal which represents the rotational orientation of the second holder part relative to the gravitational force, a controllable drive for rotating the second holder part about the rotation axis relative to the first holder part, and a control for controlling the drive on the basis of the measurement signal.
