Automatic Dual-Door Wheelchair Access System for Low-Floor City Minibuses
Assist passenger mobility with a specialized dual-door automatic wheelchair access system, designed for the rear low-floor section of city minibuses. Engineered to meet European regulatory standards (e.g., 2001/85/EC, UN/ECE Regulation No. 107), this system ensures safe, dignified, and efficient entry for wheelchair users.
- Automatic Dual Doors: Enables seamless wheelchair entry and exit, reducing loading time and simplifying operation.
- Low-Floor Design Compatibility: The system integrates with low-floor vehicles, minimizing ramp angulation and accommodating curb-level boarding with ease.
- Safety Sensors: Built-in sensors detect obstructions and adjust deployment accordingly, ensuring accurate ramp positioning and passenger safety.
Implementing such systems in low-floor city buses significantly improves usability for passengers with reduced mobility and aligns with modern accessibility mandates across Europe. For example, Madrid has effectively deployed hybrid ramp systems to enhance wheelchair access in articulated buses.
Why This System Matters:
- Inclusive Mobility: Ensures independence and dignity for all passengers.
- Operational Efficiency: Reduces boarding times and aids transit schedules.
- Regulatory Compliance: Meets stringent European safety and accessibility rules.
- Space-Saving Design: Optimizes interior layout and vehicle aesthetics.
Ideal for city minibuses, shuttle vans, public transit fleets, and paratransit programs, this automatic dual-door system elevates accessibility while maintaining regulatory and operational standards.
