Unique to wheelchairs, the diameter is generally 5cm smaller than the large wheels. When hemiplegia is driven by one hand, add one smaller diameter for selection. The handwheel is usually pushed directly by the patient

If the function is not good, the following modifications can be made for easy driving:
