Motion-support machines for the elderly and physically handicapped include electric carts. However, these carts have an oval steering handle mechanism, which requires great flexion of the wrist joint at both grips of the handle. As operator moves his upper part to avoid this inconvenience in turning the handle, the center of gravity of the cart and the operator is moved to the extreme centrifugal direction. To resolve this problem, we propose a new type of handle, which has a structure of four parallel linkages instead of the usual oval shape. In this report, we described the verification results of operational performance and synthetic view on new type of handle, which was efficient to keep operator's posture stable with simple operation as the forward and backward motion of operator's arm. It can be perform comfortable operation for electric carts by this handle.
