Abstract(in English) The strength of the wheelchair is prescribed by JIS, and the security of the user is planned. But, the accident that the back is damaged at the time of caster up movement is taking place in the clinical spot. Therefore, we inspected the durability of the wheelchair at the time of the caster up movement. As a result, it was revealed that the load that pushed a handle right below is bigger than attracted a handle horizontally. Therefore, we think that it is necessary to add the method to push the handle right below, in a caster up test.
