Abstract
To facilitate unfolding of a wheelchair outside a vehicle by a simple one-handed operation even in a seated state on a driver's seat of the vehicle, a wheelchair includes an upper support arm and a lower support arm, each of which couples a left side frame and a right side frame and is folded in an up-down direction in a central portion thereof in a left-right direction. A tensioning member having a flexibility is coupled to the upper support arm and the lower support arm; and a grip section is attached to the tensioning member. The upper support arm and the lower support arm, when each of which is in a folded state, are urged in an unfolding direction by a predetermined tensile force input to the tensioning member.
