RANCANG BANGUN KURSI RODA ELEKTRIK UNTUK KONDISI NAIK TURUN TANJAKAN

Abstract: This  study  aims  to  find  out/design  and  electronic  wheelchair  that  can  go  up  and  down  a slope, as an aid facility for people with disabilities and elderly people. The wheelchair uses a relay motor control program applied in a microcontroller controlling a DC Motor. This study is intended to inprove the writer’s skills in designing  electric  wheelchairs  that  can go  up  and down  a  slope.  In  terms  of  academic  purpose,  it  is  expected  that  this  research  can  provide additional  knowledge  for  students,  especially  the  students  of  Mechanical  Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Hasanuddin University about wheelchair design that can be  beneficial  in  increasing  production  through  automation  in  the  field  of  science  and technology.  The  electric  wheelchair  is  equipped  with  a  microcontroller  that  can  receive instructions  from  a  mover  stick.  It  also  has  a  visual  equipment  that  can  facilitate  the wheelchair  user.  The  instruction  from  the  mover  stick  will  be  directly  sent  because  it  is connected to the microcontroller by using a serial cable. The results reveal that the manual wheelchair  stick  /  drive  shaft  driven  directly  by  the  user  sends  instructions  to  the microcontroller  in  accordance  with  the  desired  wheelchair  movement.The  signal  will  be forwarded to the driver that will drive the motor. In this system, the mover stick functions as a  user  interface  connected  to  the  control  system.  The  control  system  consists  of  several electronic chains that function to control the electric wheelchair equipped with components of interface input/output and a driver as the actuator.
