Abstract: The vehicle assistance equipment to facilitate an occupied wheelchair (1) handling comprises a control unit (5) and at least one electrically operated winch (3) to whose strap (2) the occupied wheelchair (1) is fastened. The occupied wheelchair (1) is loaded into the vehicle or unloaded out of the vehicle using a drive-up ramp (4) of the vehicle where the winch (3) applies a force to the occupied wheelchair (1) via the strap (2) during the occupied wheelchair (1) handling to facilitate the handling. The parameters of the winch (3) operation continuously change with the changing length of the pulled out strap (2) where the monitored instantaneous load applied to the winch (3) is compared to safe limit values for load for the current position of the occupied wheelchair (1).
