[0045] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0046] See also Figures 1 to 2 , a three-level shock-absorbing medical wheelchair provided by an embodiment of the utility model includes a body frame 100, four roller mechanisms 200, a first shock absorber 400, a seat body 300 and a second shock absorber 500, wherein the four roller mechanisms 200 are respectively arranged on both sides of the front of the body frame 100 and on both sides of the rear of the body frame 100, each roller mechanism 200 is connected to the body frame 100 for vertical rotation, and the rolling wheel 250 of each roller mechanism 200 adopts a honeycomb shock-absorbing wheel; the two ends of the first shock absorber 400 are respectively connected to the body frame 100 and the roller mechanism 200 for rotation; the seat body 300 is vertically slidably arranged on the body frame 100; one end of the second shock absorber 500 is connected to the top of the body frame 100, and the other end of the second shock absorber 500 is connected to the bottom of the seat body 300.
[0047] The first shock absorber 400 may be an electromagnetic shock absorber or a gas spring, and the second shock absorber 500 may be a gas spring.
[0048] It is understood that the rolling wheel 250 utilizes a honeycomb shock-absorbing wheel, thereby providing the roller mechanism 200 with a shock-absorbing effect during use. A first shock absorber 400 is provided between the roller mechanism 200 and the vehicle body frame, thereby also providing a shock-absorbing effect between the roller mechanism and the vehicle body frame 100. Furthermore, the seat body 300 is connected to the vehicle body frame 100 via a second shock absorber 500, thereby also providing a shock-absorbing effect between the seat body 300 and the vehicle body frame 100. Therefore, the coordinated use of the honeycomb shock-absorbing wheel, the first shock absorber 400, and the second shock absorber 500 provides a three-level shock-absorbing effect during use of the medical wheelchair. That is, the medical wheelchair provides a step-by-step shock absorption effect on the seat body 300 during use, ensuring patient comfort even for patients with more serious medical conditions.
[0049] It should be noted that the first shock absorber 400 adopts an electromagnetic shock absorber, and the control system can control the working voltage of the electromagnetic shock absorber, thereby controlling the shock absorbing effect of the first shock absorber 400, thereby keeping the medical wheelchair in a balanced state as much as possible, and improving the patient's comfort when using the medical wheelchair.
[0050] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The roller mechanism 200 includes a first cantilever 210, a second cantilever 220, a connecting base 240, and a rolling wheel 250. One end of the first cantilever 210 is rotatably connected to the lower portion of the vehicle body frame 100, while one end of the second cantilever 220 is rotatably connected to the upper portion of the vehicle body frame 100. The first cantilever 210 and the second cantilever 220 are arranged substantially parallel to each other. The other end of the first cantilever 210 is rotatably connected to the lower portion of the connecting base 240, while the other end of the second cantilever 220 is rotatably connected to the upper portion of the connecting base 240. Thus, the vehicle body frame 100, the first cantilever 210, the second cantilever 220, and the connecting base 240 form a parallelogram connecting rod structure. One end of the first shock absorber 400 is rotatably connected to the middle of the length of the first cantilever 210, and the other end is rotatably connected to the top of the vehicle body frame 100. The rolling wheel 250 is rotatably connected to the connecting base 240.
[0051] It will be appreciated that the vehicle body frame 100, the first cantilever 210, the second cantilever 220, and the connecting base 240 constitute a parallelogram linkage structure. Therefore, the rolling wheel 250 is mounted on the side of the vehicle body frame 100 for vertical rotation via the parallelogram linkage structure. Furthermore, the first shock absorber 400 restricts deformation of the parallelogram linkage structure, thereby providing a strong shock-absorbing effect between the roller mechanism 200 and the vehicle body frame 100. This arrangement ensures that the overall structure of the roller mechanism 200 is relatively stable during use and provides a strong shock-absorbing effect.
[0052] In a further embodiment, the roller mechanism 200 further includes a transmission shaft 230 and a transmission joint 260. The transmission shaft 230 extends along the width of the vehicle body frame 100 and is positioned between the first cantilever 210 and the second cantilever 220. The transmission shaft 230 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body frame 100. A connecting base 240 is rotatably disposed outside the transmission joint 260, or in other words, the transmission joint 260 is rotatably disposed through the connecting base 240. The end of the transmission shaft 230 away from the vehicle body frame 100 is universally movably connected to one end of the transmission joint 260, and is capable of driving the transmission joint 260 to rotate synchronously. For example, the ends of the transmission shaft 230 and the transmission joint 260 are connected via a Hooke's hinge structure. The rolling wheel 250 is connected to the end of the transmission joint 260 away from the transmission shaft 230.
[0053] It will be appreciated that the rolling wheel 250 is connected to the transmission joint 260, which is in turn connected to the transmission shaft 230. Thus, the rolling wheel 250 is rotationally connected to the vehicle body frame 100 via the transmission shaft 230, allowing for stable rolling along the road surface. Furthermore, the vehicle body frame 100, the first cantilever 210, the second cantilever 220, and the connecting base 240 are sequentially connected, forming a parallelogram linkage structure. The connecting base 240 is rotatably mounted on the transmission joint 260. Thus, the rolling wheel 250 is rotatably connected to the side of the vehicle body frame 100 via the parallelogram linkage structure. The connecting base 240 is rotationally connected to the transmission joint 260, and the rolling wheel 250 is universally connected to the transmission shaft 230 via the transmission joint 260. Consequently, the transmission joint 260 and the parallelogram linkage structure do not interfere with each other, allowing the rolling wheel 250 to swing stably up and down while rolling on the road surface, providing a stable shock-absorbing effect.
[0054] In some embodiments, the three-stage shock-absorbing medical wheel further includes a drive member (not shown) disposed on the vehicle frame 100 and configured to drive the transmission shaft 230 for rotation. It is understood that two drive members are typically provided, each driving the two rearward rolling wheels 250 via the transmission shaft 230, thereby enabling the medical wheelchair to automatically move on the ground without requiring manual effort. Alternatively, four drive members may be provided, each driving the front and rear rolling wheels 250 via the transmission shaft 230.
[0055] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 Guide seats 110 are respectively provided at the front and rear positions of the top of the vehicle body frame 100, and guide rods 310 are respectively provided at the front and rear positions of the bottom of the seat body 300. The guide rods 310 are slidably mounted on the guide seats 110, and the second shock absorber 500 is vertically positioned between the two guide seats 110. As a result, the seat body 300 is stably and vertically slidably connected to the vehicle body frame 100, allowing the second shock absorber 500 to provide stable shock-absorbing support for the seat body 300. Simultaneously, one end of the first shock absorber 400 is rotatably connected to the side of the guide seat 110. As can be seen, the guide seat 110 also facilitates the installation of the first shock absorber 400.
[0056] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 4The medical wheelchair also includes an auxiliary mechanism 600, which includes an extension bracket 610, a first link 620, a second link 630, a third link 640, a third shock absorber 650 and an auxiliary wheel 660, wherein the extension bracket 610 is connected to the vehicle body frame 100 or the seat body 300 and extends toward the front of the medical wheelchair, one end of the first link 620 is rotatably connected to the extension bracket 610; the auxiliary wheel 660 is rotatably connected to the other end of the first link 620; one end of the third shock absorber 650 is rotatably connected to the side of the first link 620, and the other end of the third shock absorber 650 is rotatably connected to the extension bracket 610; one end of the second link 630 is rotatably connected to the other end of the first link 620; one end of the third link 640 is rotatably connected to the other end of the second link 630, and the other end is rotatably connected to the extension bracket 610.
[0057] The third shock absorber 650 may be an electromagnetic shock absorber or a gas spring, both of which have a large elastic deformation force.
[0058] It is understood that the auxiliary wheels 660 are elastically rotatably connected to the front side of the medical wheelchair via the third shock absorber 650. This arrangement allows the auxiliary wheels 660 to absorb shock when colliding with obstacles ahead, such as steps, thereby preventing significant vibrations in the seat body 300 and ensuring patient comfort. Furthermore, the auxiliary wheels 660 can flexibly change position when assisting the medical wheelchair in navigating obstacles, ensuring smoother traversal.
[0059] In addition, the extension bracket 610, the first link 620, the second link 630 and the third link 640 form a parallelogram linkage structure, and the auxiliary wheel 660 is equivalent to being rotatably arranged on the front side of the medical wheelchair through the parallelogram linkage structure. With this arrangement, the auxiliary wheel 660 is more stable when in use, so as to assist the medical wheelchair in overcoming obstacles.
[0060] Furthermore, if the third shock absorber 650 utilizes an electromagnetic shock absorber, the control system controls the operating voltage of the third shock absorber 650 during the process of ascending stairs, causing the other end of the third shock absorber 650 to extend or contract. For example, when the other end of the third shock absorber 650 extends, the second linkage 630 rotates upward, thereby driving the auxiliary wheels 660 upward, thus assisting the medical wheelchair in climbing higher stairs. Conversely, when the other end of the third shock absorber 650 contracts, the second linkage 630 rotates downward, thereby driving the auxiliary wheels 660 downward, thus assisting the medical wheelchair in climbing lower stairs. Simultaneously, by controlling the up and down swinging of the auxiliary wheels 660, the third shock absorber 650 effectively reduces the vibration effect of the ground on the auxiliary wheels 660.
[0061] The technical means disclosed in the present invention are not limited to those disclosed in the above-mentioned embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above-mentioned technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
