Assist control device

An assist control device controlling an electric motor assisting traveling of a mobile object, the assist control device comprising:

• an operating switch configured to be turned on when operated by a user, the operating switch configured to be turned off when released from being operated by the user;
• and
• a control part configured to control the electric motor to output an assist force when the operating switch is turned on;
• wherein
• the operating switch includes a forward movement switch and a reverse movement switch, and
• the control part is further configured to control the electric motor to output the assist force for forward movement when the forward movement switch is turned on, the control part being further configured to control the electric motor to output the assist force for reverse movement when the reverse movement switch is turned on.

An assist control device controlling an electric motor assisting traveling of a mobile object, the assist control device comprising:

• an operating switch configured to be turned on when operated by a user, the operating switch configured to be turned off when released from being operated by the user;
• and
• a control part configured to control the electric motor to output an assist force when the operating switch is turned on;
• and
• an angle detection part configured to detect an angle;
• wherein
• the mobile object includes an operating handle extending upward, the operating handle configured to be pivotable,
• the angle detection part is further configured to detect a tilt angle of the operating handle relative to a vertical axis, and
• the control part is further configured to control the electric motor based on the tilt angle detected by the angle detection part.

An assist control device controlling an electric motor assisting traveling of a mobile object, the assist control device comprising:

• an operating switch configured to be turned on when operated by a user, the operating switch configured to be turned off when released from being operated by the user;
• and
• a control part configured to control the electric motor to output an assist force when the operating switch is turned on;
• wherein the control part is configured to execute first brake processing to stop the mobile object when determining that the operating switch is switched off from on during traveling of the mobile object;
• and
• wherein the control part is further configured to execute the first brake processing after elapse of a predetermined waiting time.

• an operating switch configured to be turned on when operated by a user, the operating switch configured to be turned off when released from being operated by the user;
• and
• a control part configured to control the electric motor to output an assist force when the operating switch is turned on;
• wherein
• the operating switch is configured to be turned on as either a first on state or a second on state when operated by the user, the operating switch being further configured to be turned off when released from being operated by the user, and
• the control part is further configured to control the electric motor to output the assist force for forward movement when the operating switch is turned on as the first on state, the control part being further configured to control the electric motor to output the assist force for reverse movement when the operating switch is turned on as the second on state;
• and
• wherein the control part is further configured to execute third brake processing to stop the mobile object when determining that the operating switch is switched between the first on state and the second on state during traveling of the mobile object.
