AI Technical Summary
Existing wheelchair users are prone to falling due to insufficient strength when transitioning from wheelchair to bed, especially those with leg muscle atrophy or weakened arm strength. The training process is also difficult and affects their self-confidence.
A movable wheelchair was designed, which uses a geared motor and an output motor to drive the meshing of internal and external gears to achieve 90-degree rotation and height adjustment of the wheelchair body. Combined with the angle adjustment of the handrest, it ensures that the wheelchair fits snugly against the bed and adapts to different bed heights.
It reduces the probability of wheelchair users falling when getting from the wheelchair to the bed, reduces the labor intensity and difficulty, and improves the convenience and safety of getting into bed.

At the same time, after the wheelchair body approaches the bedside and rotates ninety degrees, the wheelchair body can be started again to make the wheelchair body close to the bedside, thereby reducing the probability of the wheelchair user falling due to the gap between the wheelchair body and the bedside.
[0008] As a preferred shift wheelchair of the utility model, a rotating shaft is provided on the top of the hand rest, and the rotating shaft is distributed on the top of the left and right sides of the backrest. The direction and angle of rotation of the hand rest through the rotating shaft is ninety degrees from the top to the front, so that the hand rest can be rotated to the front top ninety degrees upward, avoiding the hand rest blocking the wheelchair body and the bedside, affecting the wheelchair user's getting into bed.
[0009] As a preferred shifting wheelchair of the utility model, the tooth pitch on the inner side of the inner gear matches the tooth pitch on the outer side of the outer gear, and the depth on the inner side of the inner gear is the same as the overall thickness of the outer gear. The purpose of driving the rotating column and the wheelchair body to rotate by the reduction motor can be achieved through the meshing of the inner gear and the outer gear.

[0013] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] The transfer wheelchair designed by the utility model can rotate the wheelchair body by 90 degrees through design coordination, so that the wheelchair user can more conveniently support himself to get into bed with his hands. At the same time, after the wheelchair body approaches the bedside and rotates by 90 degrees, the wheelchair body is started again to make the wheelchair body close to the bedside, thereby reducing the probability of the wheelchair user falling due to the gap between the wheelchair body and the bedside, and at the same time reducing the difficulty and labor intensity of the wheelchair user getting from the wheelchair body to the bed to a certain extent.
[0015] The shifting wheelchair designed by the utility model is designed so that the height of the wheelchair body can be adjusted according to the height of the bed. At the same time, an outer gear and an inner gear are arranged at the bottom of the rotating column which drives the wheelchair body to rotate, so that the wheelchair body can move up and down with the top plate, and can be driven by the reduction motor to rotate when retracted downward. The height of the wheelchair body can be adjusted by moving upward, so as to avoid the wheelchair body being too high or too low, which affects the wheelchair user on the wheelchair body to get in or out of bed, and reduce the probability of falling when getting in and out of bed.
