Abstract: Each wheel (10, 14/20, 24) of the wheelchair (1) is fixed to a suspension arm (11,15/21, 25). A force transmitting device, for example a spring and damper of the wheelchair unit, directly connects two suspension arms situated on the same side of the wheeled conveyance, so that forces exerted on one of the wheels are transmitted to the other wheel. In this way, obstacles can more conveniently be overcome. A further advantage of the wheelchair is that it can be easily upscaled and driving properties can be adjusted according to a user's preferences.

Abstract: A facial feature analysis system for command applications for users with physical disabilities, like impaired users of wheelchairs, patient beds or other appliances is provided. The disclosed system includes a virtual filter bank and a virtual discriminator. The virtual filter bank comprises a feature localization main module having an ancillary data bank which supplies a special signal Sg for control functions. The system calculates face localization based on parameters of a holistic face-model, calculates feature localization based on parameters of an adaptive face graph, calculates feature extraction using stored feature values corresponding to selected validation and provides output signals using a signal delivery main module controlled by static and dynamic classification. The virtual discriminator bank calculates a user adapted allocation based on a face feature of the user and provides a periphery allocation for at least one command modus, and for calculating execution signals for said manipulators.

Abstract: The wheelchair comprises a seat back a module (2) movably coupled to a seat module (5). Two lateral plates (10, 10?) are secured to the seat back module (2) and pivotally mounted on the seat module (5). Each of said plate is provided with a recess (18, 18?) adapted to lodge an excenter member (19) comprising two parallel side faces (26, 27) and being perforated by three holes (21, 22 and 23), adapted to receive a spring release locking pins for locking the angle position of said seat back module. Due to the positioning of said three holes and the possibility of lodging the excenter member with either one of its two side faces (26 or 27) inside the recess (18), five different locking angle positions of the seat back module are possible.
