Maintenance of wheelchairs

(1) Before using the wheelchair and within one month, check whether the bolts are loose, and tighten them in time if they are loose. In normal use, check every three months to ensure that all parts are in good condition. Check all kinds of solid nuts on the wheelchair (especially the fixing nuts of the rear wheel axle). If looseness is found, it needs to be adjusted and tightened in time.

(2) The wheelchair should be wiped dry in time if it is exposed to rain during use. The wheelchair in normal use should also be wiped with a soft dry cloth frequently and coated with anti-rust wax to keep the wheelchair bright and beautiful for a long time.

(3) Frequently check the flexibility of activities and rotating mechanisms, and apply lubricant. If the axle of the 24-inch wheel needs to be removed for some reason, the nut should be tightened tightly when reinstalling, so that it will not loosen.

(4) The connecting bolts of the wheelchair seat frame are loosely connected, and tightening is strictly prohibited.

Wheelchairs are the second pair of feet for elderly people with lower body disabilities or mobility issues. Now many people buy wheelchairs like this. As long as the wheelchair does not fail, they generally do not check and maintain it. Rest assured, this is actually a wrong approach. Although the manufacturer can guarantee that the quality of the wheelchair is fine, it cannot guarantee that it will be fine after you have used it for a period of time. Therefore, in order to ensure the best condition of the wheelchair, the wheelchair needs to be maintained regularly.

The most important consideration when choosing a wheelchair is its size. The main parts where wheelchair users bear weight are around the ischial tuberosity of the buttocks, around the femur, around the fossa and around the scapula. The size of the wheelchair, especially the width of the seat, the height of the backrest and the height of the backrest, and the distance between the pedals and the seat cushion will affect the blood circulation of the occupant's relevant parts of the force, and cause skin abrasions and even pressure sores. In addition, the safety of the patient, the ability to operate, the weight of the wheelchair, the location of use, and the appearance of the wheelchair must also be considered.
