It is difficult for the hemiplegic patients to move the side of the body paralyzed due to apoplexy. And they need to recover their motor function through a course of rehabilitations. While, the wheelchair is used as a self-supported transfer by the hemiplegic patients. It is likely to driven by the healthy side on their own. However, if the hemiplegic patients continue to drive the wheelchair by limbs on the healthy side, the muscular force of the affected side will be weakened with a risk of a slow recovery. In this paper, we design and manufacture the wheelchair that gives the paralyzed limbs gait training motion for hemiplegic patient. This gait training motion is generated by the healthy side as driving wheelchair. Giving the repeated motion to the affected side, the wheelchair is expected to bring an effective rehabilitation. We measure the angular displacement of hip joint and knee joint and examine the effect of the wheelchair.
