Power Wheelchair Uses for Handicap Person

A motorized wheelchair, power-chair, Electric Wheelchair or electric-powered wheelchair (EPW) is a wheelchair that is propelled by means of an electric motor rather than manual power. Motorized wheelchairs are useful for those unable to propel a manual wheelchair or who may need to use a wheel chair for distances or over terrain which would be fatiguing in a manual wheelchair. They may also be used not just by people with 'traditional' mobility impairments, but also by people with cardiovascular and fatigue based conditions.

Power Wheelchair at 49999 in India with Free Shipping

Folding-Power-Wheelchair
Our Price : Rs 49999
A motorized wheelchair, powerchair, electric wheelchair or electric-powered wheelchair (EPW) is a wheelchair that is propelled by means of an electric motor rather than manual power. Motorized wheelchairs are useful for those unable to propel a manual wheelchair or who may need to use a wheelchair for distances or over terrain which would be fatiguing in a manual wheelchair. They may also be used not just by people with 'traditional' mobility impairments, but also by people with cardiovascular and fatigue-based conditions.

The electric Power Wheelchair was invented by George Klein, who worked for the National Research Council of Canada, to assist injured veterans after World War II.

Design
Powerchair design may be categorized by drive system/chassis, battery, controller, seat, and use.

Drive System/Chassis
Powerchairs are generally four-wheeled or six-wheeled and non-folding, however some folding designs exist and other designs may have some ability to partially dismantle for transit.

Four general styles of powerchair drive systems exist: front, centre or rear wheel drive and all-wheel drive. Powered wheels are typically somewhat larger than the trailing/castoring wheels, while castoring wheels are typically larger than the castors on a manual chair. Centre wheel drive Folding Power Wheelchair have castors at both front and rear for a six-wheel layout.

Powerchair chassis may also mount a kerb-climber, a powered device to lift the front wheels over a kerb of 10 cm or less.

Power-Wheelchair-Zip-Lite
Our Price : Rs 49999
Some manual wheelchairs may also be fitted with an auxiliary electric power system. This can take one of three forms: integrated with the hub of hand-propelled wheels, so that any force on the pushrims is magnified by the drive system, or mounted under the wheelchair and controlled as for a Power Wheelchair Zip Lite, but with the motive force either transmitted to the main wheels via a friction drive system, or delivered directly through an auxiliary drive wheel.

Some experimental all-terrain powerchair designs have been produced with tracks rather than wheels, but these are not in common use.

Other experimental designs have incorporated stair-climbing abilities and Dean Kamen's iBOT design featured both stair climbing and the ability to 'stand' on its upended chassis via the use of advanced gyroscopic sensors. The iBOT was at one time a production model, but is no longer marketed.

Battery
The electric motors of powerchairs are usually powered by 12 to 80 ampere-hour rechargeable deep-cycle batteries, the smaller batteries are used in pairs to give the chair enough power to last at least one day between charges. These are available in wet or dry options. As wet-cell batteries may not legally be carried on an aircraft without removing them from the wheelchair and securing them in a shipping container, dry-cell batteries are preferred for powerchair use. Many powerchairs carry an on-board charger which can be plugged into a standard wall outlet; older or more portable models may have a separate charger unit.

Controller
A typical joystick controller
Controller
Controller
Controllers are most commonly an arm-rest mounted joystick which may have additional controls to allow the user to tailor sensitivity or access multiple control modes. The controller may be swing-away to aid in side-transfers. For users who are unable to use a hand controller various alternatives are available such as sip-and-puff controllers, worked by blowing into a sensor. In some cases the controller may be mounted for use by an aide walking behind the chair rather than by the user. Capabilities include turning one drivewheel forward while the other goes backward, thus turning the wheelchair within its own length.

'Thought-control' of powerchairs, actually working by the detection of brainwaves or nerve signals via sensors on the scalp or elsewhere, has been demonstrated in the laboratory environment.

Seat
The seating on a powerchair can vary in design. Starting with a basic sling seat and backrest made of vinyl or nylon, some chairs have an optional padding, some have more comfortable cushion and backrest options which may include a head rest. There are companies which can fit their own backrests and seat cushions for people with increased need for stability in the trunk, or at increased risk of pressure sores from sitting out. Finally, specialist seating solutions are available for users who need individually tailored support. Leg rests may be integrated into the seating design and may have powered adjustment for those users who need to vary their leg position. Power chairs may also have a tilt-in-space, or reclining facility for users who are unable to maintain an upright seating position indefinitely. This function can also help with comfort by shifting pressure to different areas for a while, or with positioning in a wheelchair when a user needs to be hoisted in.

Certain high-end powerchairs feature a 'standing' capability in which either the entire seat elevates to bring the user to standing height or the seat-base, seat-back and leg rests move in conjunction to bring the user into an upright position. The powerchair may or may not be able to move while in the elevated position.

Transportation
Most wheelchairs are crash tested to standards 7176, and ISO 10542. These standards mean that a wheelchair can be used facing forward in a vehicle if the vehicle has been fitted with an approved tiedown or docking system for securing the wheelchair, and a method of securing the occupant of the wheelchair.

Use
Powerchairs are generally prescribed for use by users who are unable to use a manual wheelchair. However, in both the US (Medicare and some private insurers) and the UK (National Health Service) powerchairs are generally not prescribed to users who have any ability to walk within the home, even if that ability is so functionally constrained as to be practically useless and where the user is unable to use a manual wheelchair independently. If in doubt, contact your doctor who may refer you for an assessment. Disability rights activists are campaigning for prescription procedures to focus on an individual needs based assessment rather than on inflexible application of prescription rules. The restricted prescribing leads to many users being forced to procure a solution privately, in some cases settling for a powerchair or a mobility scooter that is less than ideal to their needs but which falls within their budget. In the UK, under the NHS, patients are assessed individually and the criteria for prescription are used to guide the assessment process to help achieve a fair and equitable assessment.

The use of Powerchairs is not restricted solely to users unable to use manual chairs. Any disabled person with a mobility, fatigue or pain-based impairment or cardio-vascular issues may find a powerchair advantageous in some circumstances, however existing prescription practises generally means that powerchairs for such use must be privately procured or hired for the occasion. Consult your doctor or local wheelchair service if you are not sure.

Basic Tips for Electric Power Wheelchair Persons

Power wheelchairs are complicated devices.  Using a power wheelchair can be overwhelming at first.  Here are some tips to keep your chair in good condition and working for you!

START SLOW
    Electric_Wheelchair_with_Commode
    Our Price : Rs 62000
  • If you are a new power wheelchair user, take your time to familiarize yourself with the chair and how it operates.  A power wheelchair has very powerful motors, and thus the power of the chair should be respected. 
  • Make sure you always drive the chair on smooth, even surfaces.  Any bump over ½” can cause the chair to lose control easily.  Also be aware of inclines as the Electric Wheelchair could tip over if you do not navigate inclines carefully.  When going down steep inclines, you may find tilting the seat back (if you have that feature) slightly will make the ride more comfortable.  Be aware that some chairs may “lock out” if tilted too far. 
  • Power wheelchair users should be particularly careful with cross slopes – slopes from left to right when facing the slope – as power wheelchairs are not designed to navigate much cross slope.  If it looks steep to the eye – be aware!
  • Picture of diamond shaped safety sign.

BASIC SAFETY
  • Footplates and armrests are not designed to be weight-bearing surfaces and should not be used to take your weight when transferring.  This can cause damage to the chair and possibly severely injure you.
  • Power wheelchair joysticks are “proportional.”  This means that the farther you push the joystick the faster it will go.  Once you push the joystick all the way, it will not go any faster – do not put extra force on the joystick.  Most chairs have some sort of speed control to limit the top speed that the chair will go.  The speed and other features of the chair can be programmed to suit your needs.  Contact your wheelchair provider for assistance in adjusting the speed.
  • When the chair is stopped, the breaks automatically come on.  The breaks will prevent the wheels from turning, even when the power is off.  You cannot manually push a power chair unless you release the motors.  Releasing the motors should only be done in the case of an emergency.  A power wheelchair is very heavy, and you can quickly lose control of the chair if you are pushing it manually.  If you look at the bottom of the chair, you will see release levers.  Some chairs have one on each side, and some only have one.  If you are not sure how to disengage the motors, call your wheelchair provider.
BATTERIES
  • As you use the chair, you will have a regular charging routine.  The chair should be charged when the battery indicator goes below 50% charge.  If you leave the chair unused and not charging for an extended period of time, it will completely lose its charge.  If this happens, the only option is to replace the batteries, which can be costly.  (When in doubt, connect the chair to the charger!)
  • You cannot over charge the chair.  The charger will turn itself on and off as long as it is plugged in.
  • The typical life expectancy of power wheel chair batteries is about three years.  This is very dependent on how you use the chair.  Some people will be able to get much longer use, others much shorter.  If your batteries are not lasting for one day of typical use, call your wheelchair provider.
STORAGE

A power wheelchair should always be kept in a climate-controlled environment.  Extreme heat or cold will damage the batteries and the electronics of the chair.  A power wheelchair should not be stored out of doors or in a garage (or other non-climate controlled space.)

GETTING THE CHAIR WET

A power wheelchair has electronics and batteries that can malfunction if they get wet.  Avoid crossing puddles in the chair that may splash water onto the chair.  Wrap a clear plastic bag over the joystick and controller if you must drive in light rain.  DO NOT OPERATE A POWER WHEEL CHAIR IN HEAVY RAIN.

BASIC MAINTENANCE
  • Listen to the chair and become familiar with the sounds that it makes.  If you notice that the chair is making any unusual noises, contact your wheelchair provider.
  • On a regular basis keep the chair clean by wiping surfaces with a damp towel, using mild detergent when needed.  Do not immerse any part of the chair in water.  Special attention should be made to keep wheels and the bottom portion of the chair clean to avoid debris from damaging the wheels or motors.
  • Do regular checks to make sure all wires and connections are securely connected and free of fraying.  Notify your wheelchair provider if you notice anything out of the ordinary.
