Provided is a moving body. A control device of the moving body starts a first control processing that moves a movement part so that a posture of a base with respect to a passenger seat becomes a predetermined posture with an auxiliary grounding part lowered and grounded. The control device starts a second control processing that lifts the auxiliary grounding part with respect to the base and a third control processing that moves the movement part 2 so as to stabilize a posture of the passenger seat after a delay from the start of the first control processing.

A movable body control device controls a movable body which a worker who performs a work task at a workplace is capable of boarding and which is capable of traveling in a state where the worker is boarding. The movable body control device includes: an acquisition part that acquires, from a terminal device that is carried by the worker and that receives information which is input by the worker in accordance with the work task, information based on input information which is input by the worker in accordance with the work task; and a control part that controls a speed of the movable body based on the information which is acquired by the acquisition part.

A powered wheelchair apparatus includes a chair component, a power base component and a wheelchair control system. The wheelchair control system includes a processor and a user input device communicatively coupled to the processor. A display is communicatively coupled to the processor. A memory module is communicatively coupled to the processor that stores logic that, when executed by the processor, causes the system to receive user instructions from the user input device and display a message on the display based on the user instructions. The display is on a back of the chair component.

A toilet wheelchair comprises (a) a wheelchair frame; (b) at least three wheels rotatably connected to the wheelchair frame; and (c) a seat carried by the wheelchair frame; the seat comprises a main seat portion configured carrying a user and an auxiliary seat portion releasably mountable in an area configured for defecating the user. The wheelchair comprises a bag frame and a disposable bag carried by the frame; the toilet wheelchair comprises a lifting mechanism configured for displacing the seat from a transport position to an elevated position allowing the bag frame to be mountable within the area configured for toileting the user such that the bag is ready for receiving excrements of the user.

An embodiment of the invention is a terminal device controlling a body support apparatus capable of a first operation and a second operation; the terminal device includes a displayer and a controller; the displayer displays an operator controlling an operation of the body support apparatus; the controller switches between a first display format and a second display format based on an instruction from an outside; the first display format displays a first operator and a second operator in the displayer; the first operator controls the first operation; the second operator controls the second operation; and the second display format displays one of the first operator or the second operator in the displayer.

The present disclosure relates to a tilt assembly (1) for a powered wheelchair (15), comprising: an elongated base member (3) provided with an axial channel, a lifting member (5) configured to be received by the base member (3) and to move rectilinearly in the channel, between a retracted position and an extended position relative to the base member (3), a tilt frame (7) pivotally connected to the lifting member (5), the tilt frame (7) being configured for mounting a seat assembly (21) thereto, and an actuator arm (9) pivotally connected to the base member (3) and to the tilt frame (7), the actuator arm (9) being configured to be actuated between a retracted actuator position and a fully extended actuator position, wherein the tilt frame (7) is configured to obtain a perpendicular orientation relative to a central axis (11) of the lifting member (5) when the lifting member (5) is in the retracted position and the actuator arm is in the retracted actuator position and to be inclined relative to the central axis (11) when the lifting member (5) is in an extended position and actuator arm is in the retracted actuator position, to thereby provide a tilt functionality.

The lovemaking apparatus includes a table having a slidable platform pivotally mounted in a U-shaped opening defined in an end of the table and a wheelchair having a chair assembly that is pivotally mounted on a wheelchair frame. The wheelchair may be rolled to the platform end of the table so that the seat and leg rest portion of the chair assembly is below the free end of the platform, linear actuators may be actuated to pivot the platform at an angle using switches mounted at the platform end of the table, and the platform may be slid downward towards the seat of the chair assembly of the wheelchair. Linear actuators mounted on the wheelchair frame may be actuated to tilt the back of the chair assembly rearward and raise the seat of the chair assembly upward to position partners for sexual relations.

There is disclosed a mobility aid device including a seat arrangement upon which a user sits when the mobility device aid is in operation, a main unit that supports the seat arrangement, and a wheel arrangement that supports the main unit on a floor surface. The mobility aid device is driven in operation from a motor arrangement included in at least one of the main unit and the wheel arrangement, wherein the mobility device aid is propelled forwards or backwards and turned by the motor arrangement. The wheel arrangement includes two wheels mounted at lateral sides of main unit, wherein the two wheels are mutually independently driven in operation by the motor arrangement. The mobility aid device is self-balancing using the two wheels by employing a control module that controls an electrical signal applied to the motor arrangement, and the wheels are contained within an area that is less than 120% of a seating area of the seat arrangement.
