Lightweight Folding Wheelchair For Easy Storage

Transport wheelchairs or companion chairs are companion wheelchairs where the purpose is for a companion to push the user. Most of the transporters have swing-away leg rests, fixed armrests, and side panels. Instead of the usual ‘large back – small front’ wheels typical of most wheelchairs, light travel chairs have four small wheels providing much easier maneuverability of the chair.  The wheelchair is compact folding for easy storage and ultra lightweight to reduce strain on caregivers.  The integrated contoured seat and adjustable trunk support help to achieve proper positioning. The transport chair is a lightweight device used to transport a person when they are unable to walk. It is generally lighter and more compact than a wheelchair making it portable and easy to store. It requires a second person to push the chair as opposed to a wheelchair that is self-propelled by the user. The Transport Chairs has four small wheels, whereas a wheelchair has large rear wheels that provide stability making it easier to push. The transport chair is ideal for occasional use or short trips.

Portable Wheelchair Provides Stage Accessibility

Portable chair frames can be constructed of either steel or aluminum and have weights anywhere from 15 lbs. and 45 lbs. depending on the model. All chairs will fold from side to side and some have folding back the make transporting and storage easier. Most chairs have weight capacity of 250 lbs. But the heavy duty models will hold up to about 450 lbs. Of course, a chair which will hold 450 lbs. Will be a much more heavily constructed and will push the weight towards the 45 lb. weight. The most common wheel configuration for Portable Wheelchair is four 8\" casters with solid tires. The front two casters will swivel to enable turning. On some models the rear two wheels may be 12\" in diameter instead of 8\" and have air tires instead of solid tires. The larger wheels will give a little bit softer ride and traverse rough terrain a little better. They fold up in interesting ways to collapse to the size of a suitcase when not in use and are usually large enough to cover one or two stairs when extended. It is important to consider their weight and the person who would most often be carrying the ramp and setting it up.

Folding Power Wheelchairs

Folding power wheelchairs are designed to be suitable for all day use while at the same time offer some portability. The frame of the folding power wheelchair is basically the same as the frame of a conventional folding manual wheelchair frame.

With very few exceptions, folding power wheelchairs are available with all the configuration options and are suitable for the many different types of seating systems available for manual folding wheelchairs.

To fold these power wheelchairs the user, or a caregiver, must remove the battery pack(s) and any seating products used. Once these items are removed from the wheelchair, it can be folded from side to side just as one would a manual wheelchair. The Folding Power Wheelchair, when folded, will be substantialy heavier than a manual wheelchair because the joystick, electronic control box and motors will still be attached to the frame but it can be done.

Batteries and Performance:

Because these power wheelchairs are intended to be folded and and lifted for transporting, the batteries are generally as small as practicable but there will be two of them which deliver each 12 volts and are wired together in series to provide 24 volts to the motors and controllers. The combined weight of the standard batteries will be somewhere between 45 lbs. and 60lbs. but the user should be able to separate them when loading them into a vehicle.

Battery Range:

Manufacturers will advertise their Electric Wheel Chairs of this category will provide anywhere from 15 to 25 miles on a full battery charge. The range promoted should be taken with a grain of salt as weight of user, age of batteries, number slopes that are climbed and condition of the power wheelchair all have an effect on the range that can be expected. The range indicated on any power wheelchair will be the "best case" scenario and can not usually be expected with normal use.

Speed:

The speed of these smaller sized power wheelchairs are lower than what can be expected with full sized power wheelchairs and range from 4 mph to 6 mph. Again, this specification will be affected by user weight, terrain, slope and battery condition.

Seats:

The seats for folding power wheelchairs are the same as manual wheelchairs and come in sizes between 14" and 22" wide by 16" or 18" deep depending on the model however added or reduced seat depth can be attained by how the wheelchair seating is set up.

Frames and Weights:

The frame of this category of Electric Powered Wheelchairs can be steel or aluminum and has a crossframe connecting the two sides together that allow the wheelchair to fold. The wheels, motors and electronics will also remain attached to the frame. Weight capacities for folding power wheelchairs are usually between 250 lbs. and 300 lbs. and in total weigh anywhere from 120 lbs. for the lightest of models and as much as 170 lbs. for the heavier models.

Turning Radius:

The turning radius is the amount of free space required in each direction around the power wheelchair when turning a complete circle. The radius is one half of the diameter of the total circle. The smaller the turning radius, the more manoeuvrable the power wheelchair will be indoors. The range for the turning radius for this type of power wheelchair will be between 30" and 36".

Wheels:

The rear wheels are normally 12½" in diameter and have either solid rubber or air filled tires and the front casters will likely be either 5" or 6" in diameter with solid tires. The use of these smaller wheel sizes will help reduce the size and weight of these wheelchairs and aid manouverability but will limit the use of the Powered Wheel Chairs to more solid surfaces.
