Self-Reliance Transfer Support Robot for Home-Based Care

Abstract

The world's population is increasingly aging seriously, even more so in China. To meet the needs of the home-based caring elderly moving freely indoors and going to the toilet by themselves, a self-reliance transfer support robot is designed. The robot takes the wheelchair structure as the basic configuration and integrates three major mechanisms: rotation, standing-up, and transportation. In addition, the seat follows the shape of the toilet seat, and there is a common hip-size space in the middle, which makes it easy to go to the toilet without getting down the device. The robot is easy to operate and has an independent wireless remote controller, making it easy to operate in any situation and anywhere.
