The safety of electric wheelchairs today is mainly reflected in the following key parts. 1. Selection of electric wheelchair controller. The controller controls the direction of the wheelchair and cooperates with the universal wheel in front of the wheelchair to achieve 360° rotation and flexible driving. A good controller can achieve very precise movements. The friend who bought our electric wheelchair told me that once, when I went shopping in a wheelchair, there was no barrier-free access at the door, so I simply placed an iron plate. The visual width is about the same as that of an electric wheelchair, only a centimeter or two more than left and right, and then I succeeded.
In comparison, domestic controllers are worse than imported controllers. The imported controllers currently recognized in the industry are mainly British PG and New Zealand’s Dynamic. When choosing a controller, try to choose an imported controller with sensitive operation, high precision, and good stability.
Secondly, the braking system of the electric wheelchair. We must choose smart electromagnetic brakes, which I won’t discuss here, especially for electric wheelchairs or scooters used by the elderly, because the reaction of the elderly is not as fast as that of the young. The smart electromagnetic brake brakes when the power is off. Even if you are climbing a mountain, you can stop smoothly without slipping.
Some electric wheelchairs for the elderly do not use smart electromagnetic brakes, so there is no problem walking on flat roads, but they are prone to danger when climbing mountains.
Third, electric wheelchairs are equipped with motors. As the driving device of an electric wheelchair, the motor is one of its core components. Its performance is directly related to the driving safety of electric wheelchairs. Motors with good performance have strong climbing ability and low failure rate. Just imagine, if the motor breaks down while driving, stopping in the middle of the road is not only embarrassing, but also unsafe.
