[0038] In order to explain the technical content, achieved objectives and effects of the present invention in detail, the following is an explanation in conjunction with the implementation modes and the accompanying drawings.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 7An electric wheelchair includes a wheelchair body 1, the wheelchair body 1 includes a backrest assembly 11 and a power-assisted driving assembly 12, and also includes a control assembly 2, a sensing assembly 3 and an armrest assembly 4 arranged on the top of the backrest assembly 11; the armrest assembly 4 can be connected to the control assembly 2 in a relatively transmission manner; the control assembly 2 has a first sensing member 21 and a second sensing member 22, and the first sensing member 21 and the second sensing member 22 are electrically connected to the power-assisted driving assembly 12 through the control assembly 2; the sensing member 3 is connected to the armrest assembly 4, and when the sensing member 3 rotates with the armrest assembly 4, the sensing end of the sensing member 3 is opposite to the first sensing member 21 or the second sensing member 22, so that the power-assisted driving assembly 12 switches the working mode. Among them, the power-assisted driving assembly 12 is a driving motor.

[0040] It can be understood that by arranging the sensing component 3 on the armrest component 4 and arranging the control component 2 on the top of the backrest component 11, during the rotation of the armrest component 4 relative to the control component 2, the sensing component 3 is relative to the first sensing element 21 or the second sensing element 22, the working state of the power-assisted drive component 12 is switched, and the relative position of the armrest component 4 is changed. When the power-assisted drive component 12 is in the rehabilitation training mode, it can be used to assist the user in rehabilitation, thereby enriching the functions of the electric wheelchair, realizing the integration of multiple functions, and reducing the occupied space.

[0041] In some embodiments, when an angle is formed between the armrest assembly 4 and the face of the backrest assembly 11, the sensing end of the sensing assembly 3 is opposite to the first sensing member 21. Preferably, the angle is 90°. When the armrest assembly 4 is in this state, since the sensing assembly 3 is directly opposite to the first sensing member 21, the control assembly 2 controls the power-assisted drive assembly 12 to enter the rehabilitation training mode, that is, the power-assisted drive assembly 12 provides resistance to the wheelchair body 1, so that when the user pushes the electric wheelchair forward, there is a certain amount of resistance, so as to prevent the electric wheelchair from moving too fast and causing the user to fall. And since the armrest assembly 4 forms an angle with the backrest assembly 11, it is convenient for the user to move the armrest assembly 4 by hand.

[0042] In some embodiments, when the armrest assembly 4 and the surface of the backrest assembly 11 are parallel to each other, the sensing end of the sensing assembly 3 is opposite to the second sensing element 22. In this state, the control assembly 2 will control the power-assisted drive assembly 12 to enter the power-assisted mode. At this time, the armrest assembly 4 is stored, and the user can move on the electric wheelchair to avoid the armrest assembly 4 affecting the user's riding.

[0043] In some embodiments, the sensing assembly 3 includes a limit block 31 and a magnet 32; the limit block 31 is connected to the circumferential side wall of the armrest assembly 4, so that the limit block 31 is eccentrically arranged relative to the rotation center of the armrest assembly 4, and the magnet 32 ​​is connected to the limit block 31. Specifically, the limit block 31 is welded to the circumferential side wall of the armrest assembly 4, and the magnet 32 ​​is embedded in the side of the limit block 31 facing the plane where the first sensing element 21 and the second sensing element 22 are located. The limit block 31 is eccentrically arranged to enable the magnet 32 ​​to move more accurately with the armrest assembly 4, so that the armrest assembly 4 can be opposite to the corresponding sensing element after rotating to the specified position, thereby ensuring that the power-assisted drive assembly 12 can enter the corresponding mode.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first sensing element 21 and the second sensing element 22 are both Hall sensors. Position sensing is achieved through the cooperation between the magnet 32 ​​and the Hall sensor, thereby improving the position sensing accuracy of the armrest assembly 4.

[0045] In some embodiments, the control assembly 2 includes a base 23, a controller, and at least two shaft covers 25 arranged opposite to each other; the controller is arranged in the base 23, the shaft covers 25 are arranged in sequence along the length of the base 23, and a rotation groove 26 for the rotation of the sensing assembly 3 is formed between adjacent shaft covers 25; a rotation cavity 27 for the rotation connection of the armrest assembly 4 is formed between the shaft cover 25 and the base 23. Specifically, a power-assisting button electrically connected to the controller is also provided on the base 23. When the sensing end of the sensing assembly 3 is opposite to the second sensing element 22, the power-assisting button is pressed, and the power-assisting driving assembly 12 can fully enter the power-assisting mode. The setting of the power-assisting button is used to play a safety protection role. When the user sits on the electric wheelchair, the electric wheelchair can enter the power-assisting state by pressing the power-assisting button.

[0046] In some embodiments, in the length direction of the base 23, the first sensing member 21 and the second sensing member 22 are disposed on the side wall of the rotating cavity 27, and the side wall should be disposed opposite to the magnet 32 ​​to improve the sensing accuracy.

[0047] In some embodiments, the armrest assembly 4 is C-shaped to facilitate flipping and holding.

[0048] In some embodiments, the wheelchair body 1 includes a left armrest 13 and a right armrest 14 arranged opposite to each other; a remote control assembly 15 is provided at one end of the left armrest 13 or the right armrest 14 away from the backrest assembly 11 , and the remote control assembly 15 is electrically connected to the power-assisted drive assembly 12 .

[0049] In some embodiments, the wheelchair body 1 also includes a chair frame 16 and a seat assembly 17; the seat assembly 17 and the backrest assembly 11 are arranged on the chair frame 16 in sequence, and the angle formed between the seat assembly 17 and the backrest assembly 11 is greater than 90° and less than 120°; the control assembly 2 is arranged at one end of the backrest assembly 11 away from the seat assembly 17.

[0050] The working principle of the utility model is:

[0051] When the electric wheelchair is in the power-assist mode, the armrest assembly 4 and the surface of the backrest assembly 11 are parallel to each other, and the magnet 32 ​​is opposite to the second induction element 22;

[0052] When the electric wheelchair needs to be switched to the rehabilitation training mode, the armrest assembly 4 is flipped over to lift the armrest assembly 4 upward, and the magnet 32 ​​is opposite to the first induction element 21, and the power-assisted driving assembly 12 enters the rehabilitation training mode.

[0053] The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent transformations made using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in the relevant technical field, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
