Many people have a misunderstanding about lightweight electric wheelchairs: they think that lightweight electric wheelchairs are less stable than heavy ones and are not safe for the elderly. But in fact, the safety of an electric wheelchair has little to do with its own weight, it mainly depends on the material and structure of the wheelchair. In terms of materials, lightweight electric wheelchairs use at least aluminum alloy, and some use magnesium alloy or even carbon fiber. These materials are special materials for aerospace applications and there is no need to worry about their lightness and safety.
In terms of design, lightweight wheelchairs have a lower center of gravity than heavy wheelchairs. This design allows the lightweight electric wheelchair to ride more smoothly on the road and be less prone to rollovers or other accidents. At the same time, lightweight electric wheelchairs are also equipped with many protective measures, such as seat belts, non-slip wheels, non-slip tires, shock absorption designs, electromagnetic brakes, etc., which further improve the safety of wheelchairs. lightweight wheelchairs. . It should be remembered that due to their light weight and small chassis and wheelbase, lightweight electric wheelchairs should not drive too fast. When you encounter obstacles on a flat road, take detours to avoid them. Pay attention to adjusting the center of gravity when climbing. or go down slopes, and do not go up slopes that are too steep, and do not brake suddenly when going down a slope, as it is easy to fall forward. Finally, I would like to share with you two lightweight and cost-effective electric wheelchairs: the first is an aluminum alloy electric wheelchair and the other is a carbon fiber electric wheelchair. 1. TEW007D Aluminum Alloy Wheelchair
Maximum speed: 6 km/hour
Load capacity: 100 kg Advantages: Aluminum alloy structure, very light, the whole vehicle is light and flexible, the center of gravity is low, easy for the elderly to control; foldable, does not take up space; seat width is 45cm, suitable for large users Disadvantages: Net weight 27.28kg, cannot be carried on the plane 2. TEW112B carbon fiber wheelchair Endurance time: 10-15km Advantages: Structure Made of aluminum alloy with carbon fiber surface treatment technology, more beautiful appearance; the leather seat cushion is thicker and more comfortable; equipped with electromagnetic brake, high-speed response, braking response is faster; The net weight is only 23.5kg, it can be carried on the plane and used for travel.
