Description

動力輔助輪椅結構及操作方法Power assisted wheelchair structure and operation method

本發明係有關於一種動力輔助輪椅結構及操作方法,尤其是指一種以不僅能提供行動不便者同時進行手部及腳部之復健、運動,且可於進行復健、運動之過程中同時搭載使用者進行移動,在使用上不限室內、外,並能有效降低製作成本,而在其整體施行使用上更增實用功效特性之動力輔助輪椅結構及操作方法創新設計者。The present invention relates to a power assisted wheelchair structure and an operation method, and more particularly to a method for not only providing mobility and inconvenience to the rehabilitation and movement of the hands and feet, but also during rehabilitation and exercise. It is equipped with a user-inspired designer who is not limited to indoors and outdoors, and can effectively reduce the production cost, and is more innovative in terms of power-assisted wheelchair structure and operation method.

按,近年來隨著老年人口逐漸增加,使得老年人的生活照顧成為很重要的議題,而由於老化的緣故,造成許多老人手腳較為無力,相對即會失去獨立生活的能力;也因此,於市面上即研發有許多的復建設備,以供老年人能使用進行復健、訓練本身的肌力,進而改善老年人的日常生活機能。In recent years, with the gradual increase of the elderly population, the life care of the elderly has become an important issue. Due to aging, many elderly people are weak and have the ability to lose their independent lives. Therefore, in the market There are a lot of rehabilitation equipment developed for the elderly to use for rehabilitation and training their own muscle strength, thereby improving the daily life function of the elderly.

另,隨著經濟發展,相對令人們生活水準日漸提升,連帶造成各種室內、外活動的多元化,進而導致各種手部、腳部傷害患者日愈增多;加上,由於現今社會飲食的多元及營養過剩,而造成人們中風及手、腳功能異常等現象更是層出不窮;使得人們對健康問日愈重視,而手部、腳部皆是人類最重要的器官,為了確保手部、腳部的正常功能,只好藉由復健訓練來進行恢復。In addition, with the development of the economy, the relative living standards of the people have gradually increased, which has led to the diversification of various indoor and outdoor activities, which has led to an increase in the number of patients with various hand and foot injuries. Overnutrition, and the phenomenon of people's stroke and abnormal function of hands and feet are endless; people pay more attention to health, and the hands and feet are the most important organs of human beings, in order to ensure the hands and feet. Normal function, had to recover by rehabilitation training.

其中,一般市售常見的復建器,其通常只限於在室內使用,並無搭載使用者移動之功能,而市售之復健輪椅則通常體積較大、重量較重,且僅具有單一功能,並無法同時供使用者手部及腳部進行復健之功能;如:Among them, the common regenerators that are commonly sold in the market are generally limited to indoor use and do not have the function of carrying the user's movement, and the commercially available rehabilitation wheelchairs are usually bulky, heavier, and have only a single function. It is not possible to provide the function of rehabilitation for the user's hands and feet at the same time; for example:

1.供偏癱瘓者所使用的復健輪椅,其皆係採用一體成型偏癱復健輪椅可輔助行動,不僅只適合於偏癱患者使用,且無輔助動力設計,並在售價上較為昂貴。1. The rehabilitation chair used by the hemiplegia is a one-piece hemiplegia rehabilitation chair that can assist the action. It is not only suitable for patients with hemiplegia, but also has no auxiliary power design, and is more expensive in price.

2.人體工學手足運動機,其係為馬達驅動設計,適合一般銀髮族、體弱需手腳復健者和不方便外出病患,可供進行復健和活動筋骨使用,為居家肌肉伸展運動的輔具;但其並無輔助動力設計,不可任意移行、無法搭載使用者輔助移動功能,只限於在室內使用。2. Ergonomic hand and foot exercise machine, which is designed by motor drive. It is suitable for general silver hair, weak body and hands and feet, and inconvenient outpatients. It can be used for rehabilitation and active muscles and muscles. The auxiliary device; however, it has no auxiliary power design, can not be moved arbitrarily, can not be equipped with user-assisted mobile functions, and is limited to indoor use.

3.有輔動力的電動輪椅,其一般係為雙馬達設計,且於供使用者抓持之輪圈推環上設置有力感測器,使得能感測使用者的施力,再予以控制馬達輸出輔助力矩;但由於其係將馬達、控制電路及電池全部整合於輪圈內,造成其製作成本提高,相對令該輪椅之售價偏高,難以普及化,且該輪椅亦沒有能輔助評估使用者的手部或腳部復健情況的工具。3. The electric wheelchair with auxiliary power is generally designed as a double motor, and a force sensor is arranged on the rim push ring for the user to grasp, so that the user's force can be sensed, and then the motor is controlled. The auxiliary torque is output; however, since the motor, the control circuit and the battery are all integrated into the rim, the production cost is increased, and the price of the wheelchair is relatively high, which is difficult to popularize, and the wheelchair cannot be evaluated. A tool for the rehabilitation of the user's hands or feet.

The road-based adaptive control method, based on the Lyapunov theorem, ensures the stability of the entire system. 如申請專利範圍第6項所述動力輔助輪椅操作方法,其中,該控制單元連接有復健評估模組,使得能利用該復健評估模組記錄使用者施力於該手動輪、擺動該腳部擺動架的踢力大小,製成健康情況曲線圖,以做為輔助評估患者復健情況的參考依據。The power assisted wheelchair operating method according to claim 6, wherein the control unit is connected with a rehabilitation evaluation module, so that the rehabilitation evaluation module can be used to record the user applying force to the manual wheel and swinging the foot. The kicking force of the swinging frame is made into a health condition graph as a reference for assisting in assessing the patient's rehabilitation.
