[0021] In the above scheme, the armrest 4 includes a left armrest 41 and a right armrest 42, the roller 2 at the rear of the base 1 includes a left roller 21 and a right roller 22, and touch sensors are arranged in the left armrest 41 and the right armrest 42. Fixed frames 11 are arranged on both the left and right sides of the rear of the base 1, and encoders 12 and second gears 13 are arranged in the fixed frames. The inner sides of the left roller 21 and the right roller 22 are respectively connected to the first gear 14, and the first gear 14 and the second gear 13 are meshed. When turning, the left armrest 41 or the right armrest 42 is forced to rotate through the first gear 14 to drive the second gear 13 to rotate, so that the encoder 12 feeds back the rotation direction signal of the second gear 13 to the integrated control module, and the integrated control module controls the rotation direction of the motor 6, thereby controlling the moving direction of the car.
[0022] In addition, the two rollers 2 on the front bottom surface of the base 1 are connected to the bottom surface of the base 1 through a hinge frame 15.
[0023] Specifically, the plug board 9 is a rectangular cavity structure with one side open, and the battery 10 is inserted and engaged from the open side.
[0024] Furthermore, the storage table 3 is a multi-layer structure.
[0025] In addition, a power switch, a charging port and a power display screen are provided on one end of the base 1 and on the side corresponding to the battery 10; the integrated control module includes a core controller, a control signal module, a power supply system module, a motor dual feedback drive module and a pre-expansion function module, and the core controller is respectively connected to the control signal module, the power supply system module, the motor dual feedback drive module and the pre-expansion function module; the control signal module includes a touch sensor, a brake switch, a power switch and other control points, the power supply system module includes a battery 10, a voltage detection, a protection circuit and a charging circuit, the motor dual feedback drive module includes photoelectric isolation (high-speed optocoupler), MOSFET motor full-bridge drive, motor, current feedback, speed feedback and encoder, and the pre-expansion function module includes Bluetooth communication, wifi communication and I²C circuit.

[0027] When in use, the utility model controls the start of the control system by sensing the user's hands holding the left and right armrests through the touch sensor. The touch sensor senses the hand holding and feeds back the information to the integrated control module. The integrated control module controls the encoder 5 to work, which is more intelligent and safe. At the beginning, the cart is pushed slightly by manpower, so that the roller 2 will drive the connected first gear 14 to rotate, and the first gear 14 will drive the second gear 13 to rotate, so that the encoder 12 processes the information of the rotation direction of the second gear 13 and feeds it back to the integrated control module. The integrated control module controls the rotation direction of the motor 6, thereby controlling the movement of the car, improving the working efficiency of the cart and the stability of the startup implementation.
[0028] When charging, all the batteries 10 to be charged on the carts are removed and placed in the same place for charging. Each battery 10 has a corresponding remaining power indicator.
