INTRODUCTION
• This project aims to help the handicap people for their easy conveni
ence for travelling.
• People with lower limb disability, accessibility and movement from o
ne place to another place is a primary issues.
• As time changed the requirements of the wheelchair also changed t
o make out the needs of different classes of patients.
• So many problems are faced by the bed ridden patients some time t
hey feel lonely and will be craving for a change in their ambience.
• Ordinary wheelchair is used by them but this wheelchair moves ma
nual means. this is where the significance of automatic wheelchair c
ome bed arises as this doesn’t require a caretaker.

RELEVANCE OF THE TOPIC

• To eliminate the partially and complexity nature over the handicapp
ed people from the society.
• To improve the tendency and ability of challenges to live with confid
ence and without considering the illness and disability of them.
• To get back the hopeful of handicapped to show the strength of the
m to society.
• The project which we have selected is to reduce the human needs f
or the physical disable and old age person.
• That is why we have chosen the wheelchair cum bed for handicappe
d as our project.

DESIGN

• Firstly we developed the design of the frame.

• Then the other part are designed with suitable dimensions.
• Finally all the parts join with links and mates than the final design com
pleted.

MAIN COMPONENTS

• Lead Screw
• Lead Nut
• DC Motor
• Wheel
• Frame
• Battery
• Chain & Gear
• DPDT Switch & Controller
• Foam Sheet

Lead Screw

•A lead screw is a mechanical c

omponent that moves between
two points in a linear motion.
•Lead screw helps to convert th
e rotation motion of the DC mo
tor into linear motion. it can pr
ovide both push and pull move
ment.
www.smslucknow.ac.in

DC Motor

•DC motor that converts direct curren

t electrical energy into mechanical en
ergy.
•A 24 volt DC motor is used for drivin
g the wheelchair which is controlled b
y switch and controller.
www.smslucknow.ac.in

Wheel

•Allowing the rotation of the wheelc

hair in all directions.
•Totally four wheels are used.

Battery

•Two batteries of 12V are used to p

ower the wheelchair.

Frame

•All the parts are fixed in t

he frame like battery DC
motor wheels and other p
arts.

WORKING
• A lead screw which is connected to DC motor is convert the wheelch
air into stretcher.
• DC motor is controlled by the DPDT switch.
• Other DC motor which is connected to rear wheel shaft is used to m
obility of wheelchair.
• This motor is controlled by DPDT switch and controller.
• DPDT Switch used for change the polarity of DC motor and controlle
r used for control speed.

LOAD CALCULATION
Load on wheels

Mass of frame = 40kg

Weight of frame = 40*9.8. = 392 N
Mass of human = 60kg
Weight of human = 60*9.8 = 588 N
Force = 392+588 = 980 N
Force on each wheel = 980/4 = 245 N
www.smslucknow.ac.in

Load on back rest

Link inclinations= 20
human Mass= 25kg
Mass of the frame= 10 kg
Force= (25+10)*9.8= 343N
Force Actual= F*sin 20 = 117.31N
Load on leg rest
Link inclination = 10
Human Mass = 15 kg
Frame Mass = 10 kg
Force = (15+10)*9.8 = 245N
Force Actual = F* sin 10 = 42.54N

COST
• 2 DC motor = ₹6000
• Battery = ₹1600
• Wheels = ₹900
• Frame = ₹3000
• Switch = ₹300
• Controller= ₹800
• Gear & chain = ₹200
• Electrode = ₹300
• Lead screw &lead Nut = ₹300
• Sheet = ₹1550
• Bearings & nut bolts = ₹560
• TOTAL COST = ₹15510

• Advantages

• Increase in comfort level of the patients.

• Prevent further damage to patients and the helper while transferrin
g him/ her for chair to bed or vice-versa
• Patients with serious injuries need not be moved to aggravate their
injury even more
• No special training required to operate them
• More efficient than other chairs
• Less costly than electrical version of the same chair
www.smslucknow.ac.in

• Limitations

• Increases weight of the chair.

• Increases cost of the chair.

• Applications

• It is used in hospital.
• It can also used in houses.
www.smslucknow.ac.in

CONCLUSION
• The project was aimed at designing and manufacturing a wheelchair
cum in stretcher with focus on cost effectiveness and utility.
• The existing system has the limitation of shifting patients from wheel
chair to stretcher.
• This product will be helpful for paralyzed patients movement impaire
d person as well as for old age person.
