When sitting down, the part of the elbow can not only allow the user to maintain a relaxed sitting posture, but also provide support during sitting and standing up.
[side baffle]
The baffle part under the armrest prevents the user's clothes from getting entangled in the tire.
[cushion]
The part where the user sits down, because it is easy to get tired after sitting for a long time, many people will choose the thickened cushion, which is an important part to determine whether the wheelchair is comfortable or not.
