碩士 === 國立虎尾科技大學 === 機械與機電工程研究所 === 101 === The purpose of this thesis to propose a new multi-function wheelchair “Innovative Design and Prototype Manufacture Wheelchair with Standing and Tilting Functions” which integrates sitting, standing, and tilting functions together. The device has the following advantages: 1. For standing and reclining functions, it can be easily operated by oneself without the help of others. 2. The gravity will fall in the area between front and rear axle of wheelchair to have high stability. 3. For standing function, the seat of wheelchair will stand up and the user will have better blood circulation. 4. For tilting function, the seat of wheelchair will rotate backward a certain angle (for example 45-degree) and the user will have relaxing situation.
