 INTRODUCTION
 Wheel chair is a device used by disabled people to enhance their
personal mobility.
 Wheel chair available in market are operated manually or powered.
 According to the data from the National health survey in the year
1994-95 , roughly 0.4% of the people having age between 18 to 65
uses this chairs .
 In case of climbing upon stairs there is always need of persons to hold
and help in climbing .
 To overcome upon this mechanism of working ,a powered operated
wheel chair is developed in which electrical energy converted to
mechanical energy.
 The aim of this project is to design a wheel chair Capable of climbing
and descending staircases.
 PURPOSE
 Design an electrical Wheelchair able to climb UP/DOWN stairs.
 PRINCIPLE
 The principle of semi-automatic stair climbing is to reduce the
human efforts for moving one place to another or shifting of
ground floor to upper floor.

 Especially design for those who are unable to walk.

 In our project we are using continuous track (tank chain wheel)

in the place of normal wheels setup to enable the wheelchair to
climb and down the stair cases.
 MARKET RESEARCH
 Research existing solutions in the market.
DESIGN PROCESS

Continuous
track(tank chain)
Rear wheel Universal wheel
12V Battery 12V D.C.. Motor
Hydraulic linear actuator
Remote controller Copper wires
Channels
plywood Stainless steel rod
Indicators lights
 MATERIALS & COMPONENTS

 Mild steel channels

 Stainless steels channels
 Plywood
 Copper wires
 Switches
 Indicator lights
 12V D.C motor
 Linear hydraulic actuator
 12V Battery
 Universal wheel, rear wheel & continuous track
 Brakes
SPECIFICATION & CAPACITY
 FUTURE SCOPE
 Automated wheelchair can be operated by wireless remote
which can reduce the wiring arrangements.
 instead of using acceleration motion we can use eye retina using
optical sensor to move wheel chair accordingly.
 We can use voice command IC’s to interface our voice signal with
micro-controller.
 This system can be extended by including GSM which sends an
SMS during emergency.
 Research are going on development of handicap wheel chair
using nervous system of human.
 ADVANTAGES
 A handicapped person a without legs can use this and become
independent.

 Less hardware requires i.e. compact.

 Economical

 Reduce manpower

 User friendly
