What are the functional classifications of electric wheelchairs

Can stand or lie down
Features:
1. It can stand upright or lie flat. It can stand and walk, and it can be turned into a reclining chair. The sofa seat is more comfortable.
2. Adopt the world’s top gear box two-stage variable speed motor to give the wheelchair a sufficient and matching horsepower, more powerful climbing and more durable power
3. Equipped with a variety of user-friendly functions, such as dining table, upturned armrests, double-back seat belts, knee pads, adjustable headrests, and 40ah large-capacity batteries.
4. Equipped with anti-forward and anti-backward small wheels, and the 8-wheel configuration ensures safe use when standing and going uphill.
5. Adopt the latest international top control system, fully automatic
6. Five-speed speed change, the maximum speed is 12KM per hour, 360° arbitrary steering (walking freely in front, back, left and right).
7. Simple structure, strong electric power, electromagnetic brake (automatic parking brake, parking on half slope)

Can climb stairs
There are two main types of electric wheelchairs for climbing stairs: continuous and intermittent. The continuous stair-climbing electric wheelchair is widely used because its main feature is that there is only one set of support devices during the stair climbing process, and the function of the wheelchair going up and down the stairs is realized by the continuous movement of this set of support devices. According to its motion actuator, it can be divided into two types: star wheel mechanism and crawler wheel mechanism. The main feature of the intermittent stair climbing electric wheelchair is that it has two sets of support devices, and the two sets of support devices are alternately supported to realize the function of going up and down stairs. The stair-climbing process of this mechanism is similar to the process of people going up and down the stairs, and it is also called a walking stair-climbing wheelchair. Among them, the application of crawler wheelchair is relatively mature, but its movement on flat ground is far less than that of conventional wheelchair, and its body is relatively bulky.

At the 2010 China (Suzhou) International Biotechnology Exhibition, an electric wheelchair capable of climbing stairs was displayed. This wheelchair is not as wide as ordinary wheelchairs, it looks very thin and tall, with a height of 1.5 meters. After an experiencer got into a wheelchair, he was pushed to the stairs by the staff. Afterwards, the staff started to operate the buttons, only to see two pairs of wheels, one large and one small, at the bottom of the wheelchair, began to rotate alternately. With this alternating rotation, the wheelchair climbed three stairs in a row. According to the staff, the main technology of this wheelchair is concentrated on the wheels at the bottom. Don’t look at the two pairs of wheels, one large and one small, it can correctly sense whether there is an obstacle in front of it, and then automatically fix it to achieve smooth up and down stairs, effectively reducing the workload of the nurses. This kind of wheelchair mainly relies on pure imports, and the price is not cheap, up to 70,000 yuan.
