Abstract: The invention relates to a power-assisted wheelchair (1) having an
electric motor (32), a potentiometer (27) as means for detecting human power
applied to wheels (2), and a controller (31) as means for controlling the electric
motor (32) according to the detected human power so as to set the time-attenuation

result, small indoor movements with a small turning radius are made possible,
a sufficient coasting amount is secured for an outdoor running. Therefore,
