Abstract

See full text

A simply structured suspension structure for an electric wheelchair includes a frame, two drive units, two front guide units, two front shock absorbers, two anti-roll units, and two rear shock absorbers. The two front guide units are located at both sides of the frame and each include a front guide wheel, a front suspension arm and a torsion spring. The two front and rear shock absorbers are connected to the frame. The two anti-roll units are located at both sides of the frame. When the front guide arms drive the front guide wheels to pivot, the torsion springs can produce a reaction force to prevent the frame from rolling over, improving safety. When the suspension structure runs across an uneven bumpy road, the front and rear shock absorbers can ease the shock imposed on the frame, enhancing sitting comfort.
