Abstract
An apparatus for training a gait-impaired person to get into and out of a motor vehicle has a cabin having a hollow interior and opposite right and left sides each formed with a door opening. A respective door at each door opening has an upright front edge hinged on the cabin. A car seat has a seat part and a back part in the cabin adjacent the door. The device can have a support movable in the cabin between a front position and a rear position and carrying both the seat part and back part of a front seat. A car rear seat has a back part fixed on a rear wall of the cabin and a seat part mounted on the support spacedly behind the front seat. In the rear position of the support the back part of the front seat is closely juxtaposed with the back part of the rear seat, the seat part of the rear seat is pushed back underneath the back part of the rear seat, and the front seat is spaced backwardly from the dashboard. In the front position of the support the front seat is nested under the dashboard and spaced forwardly from the back part of the rear seat and the seat part of the rear seat is pulled out from underneath the back part of the rear seat.
