Improving the durability of electric wheelchairs can be mainly achieved through the following aspects:

1. Regular maintenance and conservation

Periodically check the condition of the battery and charge and replace it according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Clean wheelchairs, especially wheels, motors and other mechanical components, to prevent the build-up of dust and dirt from affecting their performance. Check the tire pressure of the power wheelchair to ensure that it is inflated to the proper pressure to prevent further wear caused by the tire being too underinflated or too full. Periodically lubricate all moving parts of the power wheelchair to reduce friction and wear.

2. Correct use

Avoid prolonged use of power wheelchairs on roads with adverse or extreme weather conditions, such as ice, waterlogging, and gravel roads. Do not overload the use of electric wheelchairs and strictly follow the manufacturer's maximum load range when using electric wheelchairs. Avoid hitting hard objects, try to avoid obstacles as much as possible and reduce the impact on the wheelchair frame.

3. Timely maintenance

Once any abnormal situation is found in the electric wheelchair, such as abnormal noise, unstable driving, rapid decrease in battery level, etc., it should be stopped immediately and professional personnel should be sought for maintenance in a timely manner. For vulnerable components such as tires, brake systems, controllers, etc., replace them timely according to the degree of wear.

4. Choose high-quality products

When purchasing, choose a reputable brand, whose products usually have more guarantees in terms of quality of materials and production technology. According to the actual needs and use environment of users, choose electric wheelchairs with reasonable design, strong materials and excellent manufacturing.

5. Pay attention to storage methods:

When not in use for a long period, store the electric wheelchair in a dry and ventilated place to avoid direct sunlight and rainwater erosion. If there is a folding function, fold it and store it properly to reduce stress damage caused by standing for a long time.
