This paper presents the authors’ contribution in designing and evaluating a transmission system for a robotic wheelchair. The kinematics of the proposed transmission is analysed in order to realize a proper gear synthesis. A 3D model of the transmission and wheelchair are designed in Solid Works, being then used for the dynamic simulation of the system in Adams software. The wheelchair motion simulation is done in Adams in two modes: traction motion and steering motion active. In case of traction motion simulation the resulting trajectory is a straight line displacement, whereas in the case of active steering motion the resulting displacement trajectory is circular. Simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of the developed transmission model and assure successful implementation of this design in a robotic wheelchair.
