ABSTRACT:
A wheel chair motor control circuit for a wheel chair having two independently controllable motor-driven wheels. The user has a "joystick" control operable from a datum position to move the wipers of two potentiometers both independently and simultaneously from their corresponding datum positions. A first, proportional control circuit is provided for each motor to supply it with drive power proportional to the magnitude of the deviation of its corresponding potentiometer wiper from datum and a second reversing circuit is provided for each motor to operate a reversing relay connected thereto in accordance to the direction of the deviation of its corresponding potentiometer wiper.
