Definitions

  • the invention relates to an auxiliary drive device for wheelchairs with two wheels provided with gripping rings, each having a drive device and a sensor device for detecting the muscle force introduced into the gripping ring, and with a control device.
  • Such an auxiliary drive device is for example from the DE 198 57 786 A1 known.
  • the muscle power introduced into the handrims can be proportionally supported.
  • the muscle power is detected by the sensor devices and depending on the drive means controlled by the control device.
  • gearless drive devices the drive devices support the wheelchair user for a short time. After switching off, the wheelchair rolls out, resulting in a driving experience similar to a purely manually operated wheelchair.
  • the gearbox brakes the motor immediately after it has been switched off. Therefore, in auxiliary drive devices with geared motors the motor is energized for a longer time and usually also with a ramped-down current to simulate the natural leakage of a purely manually driven wheelchair as well as possible.
  • auxiliary drive device Depending on the existing muscle power of the wheelchair user can be selected between different driving levels with a different degree of support of the auxiliary drive device. With strong and / or long climbs, however, even the highest level of support can no longer be sufficient to be able to move the wheelchair forward together with the muscular strength of the wheelchair user. Often wheelchair users underestimate the slope and / or overestimate their own muscle power.
  • the present invention has for its object to propose an auxiliary drive device, with the rides in sloping terrain are possible in a similarly comfortable manner as in even terrain.
  • an auxiliary drive device for self-propelled wheelchairs with two wheels provided with gripping rings, each having a drive device and a sensor device for detecting the muscle force introduced into the gripping ring, and with a control device, characterized in that it comprises a tilt sensor device which detects the inclination of the wheelchair relative to the horizontal in the direction of travel of the wheelchair, and that the control device activates the drive means in dependence on the detected inclination for a certain period of time and / or to deliver a certain power.
  • the torque applied by the drive means is thus selected not only as a function of the muscle force introduced into the grip rings, but also as a function of the detected inclination of the wheelchair in the direction of travel and thus of the slope of the terrain.
  • mountain rides can be handled by the wheelchair user without increased muscle use. Often this can also be omitted switching to a driving mode with a higher basic support by the engine.
  • the greater support provided by the drive means causes the wheelchair to travel a sufficient distance to allow the wheelchair user to grasp the gripping rings before the wheelchair comes to a standstill or even rolls back.
  • control device can preferably activate the drive devices for a time duration and / or for delivering a power upon detection of a gradient in the direction of travel of the wheelchair, which are proportional to the detected gradient.
  • control device brakes the drive devices upon detection of a gradient in the direction of travel of the wheelchair. This measure significantly increases the safety of the wheelchair user. Even on steep descents, his muscular strength is sufficiently supported to not let the wheelchair too fast.
  • control device can decelerate the drive devices until a maximum speed of the wheelchair is reached, wherein the maximum speed can also be adjustable. In this way, too fast downhill skiing can be avoided. Since the feeling for speeds is different in different people, a choice of the maximum speed is advantageous.
  • the braking of the wheelchair on a downhill slope also prevents dangers when driving uphill when engine power and muscle strength are insufficient to overcome the slope. If the wheelchair user is no longer able to move or hold his wheelchair, the wheelchair begins to roll backwards, but is slowed down, so that no danger situation for the driver arises.
  • control of the drive means may be different by the control device in dependence on the inclination of the wheelchair when driving forwards and when reversing.
  • a reverse drive should preferably be decelerated more than a forward drive, since the wheelchair user overlooks the area behind him worse than the one in front of him.
  • a rollback on a slope should not be completely prevented in order to continue to turn the wheelchair in a simple way. In this case, an impeller rolls backwards, while the other impeller reinforced by the drive device overcomes the slope.
  • auxiliary drive device may be designed such that upon detection of an inclination of the wheelchair for initiating the wheelchair at a standstill introduced into the handrims muscle force is supported by activation of the drive means by the controller such that even with decreasing muscle strength of the standstill of the wheelchair is maintained. To hold the wheelchair, a muscle force is permanently introduced into the grip rings. If this declines, support is provided by the drive device.
  • the control device processes this as its own control signal. This can be used to control an intended parking situation.
  • the control device can be made to prevent driving or rolling. This can be temporarily used as a replacement for the mechanical parking brake of the wheelchair.
