A vehicle includes a vehicle-body frame, a seat, wheels, a power source to generate a force to drive one of the wheels, a controller, and an inclination sensor to detect an inclination, in at least one of pitch or roll of the vehicle-body frame. The controller is configured or programmed to control a vehicle speed in at least one of a direction of advancing or reversing of the vehicle generated by driving the one wheel by the force from the power source depending on the inclination of the vehicle-body frame detected by the inclination sensor.

The present invention is a self-propelled transporter with motorized drive wheels which is particularly designed to transport patients from one location to another. The transporter includes an undercarriage having a first set of wheels pivotally connected at a bottom and proximal to a front of the undercarriage, and a second set of wheels non-pivotally connected at a bottom and proximal to a rear of the undercarriage. The transporter further includes one or more electric motors coupled to the second set of wheels. The transporter includes a base supported on the undercarriage. The transporter further includes two or more seats installed on the base to allow for patients to sit thereon.

A system, method, and device for operations of an electrically motorized vehicle. The vehicle can utilize an electrically motorized wheel to convert a non-motorized wheeled vehicle to an electrically motorized wheeled vehicle. One system includes a server in communication with the device of each of a plurality of electrically motorized wheels, the server operable to track a position of each of the electrically motorized wheels and communicate the position thereof to a transportation network.

A connector structure in an electric mobility device including a mobility body driven by a motor, a seat unit which includes an operation unit to control the motor and which is detachably attached to a seat attachment member of the mobility body, and a seat height adjustment mechanism which adjusts a height position of the seat attachment member to adjust a height position of the seat unit relative to the mobility body. The connector structure connects a signal line provided in the seat unit to a signal line of the mobility body, and includes a first connector attached to the seat unit and connected to the signal line which is connected to the operation unit, and a second connector attached to the seat attachment member and connected to the signal line of the mobility body.

An apparatus including a first electrical connector; and a second electrical connector. The first and second electrical connectors have magnets to provide a magnetic holding force with each other and provide alignment of the electrical connectors to hold the second electrical connector against the first electrical connector at a predetermined position. Magnetic poles of the magnets are configured to limit orientation of the second electrical connector on the first electrical connector. The second electrical connector includes two power contacts and an interruption detector contact, where the power contacts are movably mounted on the second housing and configured to disconnect from electrical contacts of the first electrical connector, when the second electrical connector is being disconnected from the first electrical connector, only after the interruption detector contact of the second plurality of electrical contacts disconnects from an electrical contact of the first electrical connector.

An electric vehicle includes a first instructor operated by a first operator; a second instructor operated by a second operator; a third instructor performing an instruction of deceleration or stop by determining a possibility of collision; a controller for selecting one of instructions from the first instructor, the second instructor, and the third instructor; and a driver driving according to the instruction from the controller, in which in a case of receiving the instructions from at least the first instructor and the third instructor, the controller preferentially selects the instruction from the third instructor to the instruction from the first instructor.

Electric trolley includes safety controller that determines whether or not to stop the driving of driving wheel, and driving commander that outputs, to the motor driver, (i) an operation permission signal for permitting motor to be operated and (ii) a control signal for controlling an operation of motor, in which safety controller performs control to stop inputs of the operation permission signal and the control signal to motor driver when the safety controller determines to stop the driving of driving wheel.

The present invention is intended to provide an EMG signal controller or a wheelchair using an EMG signal controller to allow full vehicular direct drive control, and wheelchair accessory control, by using one or more EMG sensors applied to certain muscles of a subject, and translating the movement of the muscles of the subject that the EMG sensors are connected, to electrical signals causing for the operation of a motorized wheelchair. The controller and wheelchair are designed specifically for paralyzed individuals with limited motion, but may be used by any subject with or without any physical or nervous system disabilities. The present invention further provides an emergency stop which is activated in the event that the subject using the wheelchair experiences a seizure or other neurological shock.
