Abstract:

In order to meet the increasing requirement of family nursing at present in China,a roboticized multi-function nursing bed controlled by sound or keyboard is developed by applying the multi-shaft coordinating control technology in robotics.Different nursing poses are implemented by the coordinative motions of bed boards in single acting or cooperative acting modes.The control system of the nursing bed consists of two modules:the main control module and the assistant control module.The former uses a single chip to reduce the cost and ensure the flexibility and reliability of the nursing bed,and the latter possesses the functions of sound identification and playing-back.Practical application shows that the proposed nursing bed is of practicability and efectiveness.

Key words: roboticized nursing bed, control system, sound identification, singlechip
