Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a foot-driven type wheelchair used by a user who can move his/her feet in a small area. SOLUTION: The wheelchair is equipped with a main body of a chair part, an auxiliary wheel, driving wheels with a larger diameter than the auxiliary wheel, a driving mechanism for driving the driving wheels, and a braking mechanism for braking the driving wheels. The driving mechanism comprises pedals mounted to make reciprocating movements along a straight line perpendicular to a plane to press on, a transforming mechanism for transforming the reciprocating movements transmitted from the pedals to rotations, and a power transmitting mechanism for transmitting the rotations to the driving wheels.
