車いす用可変車輪の開発および段差乗り越え実験による性能評価

抄録

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.
