Abstract: A lifting mechanism for a foldable ramp may include a swivel lifting arm being biased in a passive position of the foldable ramp and being activatable for releasing and transmitting its bias into a lifting force on the foldable ramp. The foldable ramp may be for providing wheelchair access to a passenger car rear door. The foldable ramp can be swivelled between several positions including a passive position in which the foldable ramp is arranged in the car in a lying position.

Abstract: A base floor part for carrying a wheelchair may be adapted to be connected to a body of an automobile. The automobile may include a battery for providing at least part of a driving force of the automobile. The base floor part may be configured such that the base floor part may be arranged at least partly above the battery.

Abstract: A base floor part made of plastic or composite material for a replacement floor for enlarging a rear cargo space of a motor vehicle, such as a compact car or an off-road vehicle, on which a wheelchair can be stored, is described. The base floor part may be connected to the vehicle body. The base floor part may include a preformed marking at which a front end portion can be separated to enable coupling with an extension floor part.

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).
