Why there is no robot that helps disabled people to walk? There are many robots which are able to walk and to climb stairs but why no company creates a robot for disabled people who can't walk? Imagine a diabled person walking on his feet with the help of a robot, instead of being on a weelchair. That's not impossible.

Flashes of In Living Color and Handi-Man going thru my head, that show was so great back in the day.
Call me silly, but I just don't see a transformable wheelchair taking the toy market by storm.

Me thinks you're in the wrong place here. This is a Message Board for Transformers, a toy line about transforming robots. We don't discuss actual robotics here.

He's also wrong - there ARE robotic exoskeletons in production for the handicapped.
They just haven't been released to market yet:
