PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a walking aid vehicle control method for improving the stability during turning of a walking aid vehicle comprising a driving mechanism such as a motor.SOLUTION: A walking aid vehicle 101 comprises: a base body 1 wheels 3 and 4 provided on the right and left of the base body a driving part 5 for driving the wheels a turn detection part for detecting the turn of the substrate and a movement control part which suppresses the speed of the base body by controlling the driving part in the case of detecting the turn of the base body. The control method detects the acting force applied by a walking person and the rotation speed of the wheels and suppresses the speed of the base body when the rotation speed is not less than a threshold.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】モータ等の駆動機構を備えた歩行補助車の旋回時における安定性を向上させるための、歩行補助車の制御方法を提供する。【解決手段】基体1と、基体の左右に設けられた車輪3、4と、車輪を駆動する駆動部5と、基体の旋回を検出する旋回検出部と、基体の旋回を検出した場合に駆動部を制御して基体を抑速させる移動制御部を備えた歩行補助車101。また、歩行者の作用力および、車輪の回転速度を検出して、回転速度が閾値以上の場合に、基体を抑速させる制御方法。【選択図】図1
