PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wheelchair caster support fixing member capable of improving workability in a caster attachment work and also reducing a work cost and a manufacturing cost.SOLUTION: A body part 22 fixed to a wheelchair main body frame via a fixing mechanism, an outer cylinder part 23 connected to the body part 22, an inner cylinder part 24 arranged inside the outer cylinder part 23, and a rubber-made elastic part 25 held between the outer cylinder part 23 and the inner cylinder part 24 are integrally molded. The rubber-made elastic part 25 is thermally welded with the outer cylinder part 23 and the inner cylinder part 24. Thus, a damper function is obtained to thereby eliminate necessity of separately attaching a damper member. Consequently, when a caster is attached, a work process is reduced so as to achieve the improvement of workability and the reduction of a work cost.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
【課題】キャスター取付作業の作業性を向上できると共に、作業コストや製造コストを低減可能な車いす用キャスター支持固定部材を提案する。【解決手段】車いすの本体フレームに固結機構を介して固結される本体部22と、該本体部22に連成された外筒部23と、該外筒部23内に配された内筒部24と、外筒部23と内筒部24との間に介在されたゴム製弾性部25とが一体成形され、該ゴム製弾性部25が外筒部23と内筒部24とに熱溶着されたものとしたから、ダンパー機能を有し、別部材のダンパーを取り付ける必要が無い。そのため、キャスターを取り付ける際に、その作業工程を少なくでき、作業性の向上と作業コストの低減とを実現できる。【選択図】図3
