Development of a variable wheel for wheelchairs and evaluation of its performance through experiments to overcome steps
The Proceedings of JSME annual Conference on Robotics and Mechatronics (Robomec)(2022)
Abstract
There are many situations where wheelchairs feel inconvenient when traveling over steps or uneven terrain. Therefore, we developed a deformable wheel that can change the wheel radius to ensure stable traveling on uneven terrain and steps. Then, the performance of the developed wheel was evaluated by measuring the trajectory of the center of the wheel as it went over steps.
