For those reliant on wheelchairs, the word "freedom" often carries a heavier weight - it might be the sweat that soaks through a gentle slope, the cautious exploration of bumpy roads, or the regret of wanting to run with their children in the park but having to wait in place. Today, ELESMART want to inject new possibilities into this "freedom" - the wheelchair power attachment, an intelligent power solution designed specifically for manual wheelchairs. It aims to break down mobility limitations with technology, allowing every user to easily control their direction and enjoy an unrestricted travel experience.
Manual wheelchairs serve as a "second leg" for many people with mobility impairments, accompanying them through every step of their daily lives. However, in practical use, the limitations of manual wheelchairs often become stumbling blocks to travel. These pain points not only affect travel efficiency but also invisibly shrink the user's living radius:
Whether it's grocery shopping, going to the supermarket, or taking a walk in the park on the weekend, manual wheelchairs require users to rely on their arm strength to propel the wheels forward. Short distances are manageable, but once the distance exceeds 1-2 kilometers, the soreness in the arm muscles gradually intensifies. This is especially true for elderly people or people with disabilities who have weaker muscles, for whom long-distance travel often means giving up halfway. Not to mention scenarios requiring a round trip, the physical exertion of the outward journey makes the return journey a huge challenge, ultimately forcing them to abandon their original travel plans.
City roads are not always smooth. Raised paving stones on sidewalks, gentle slopes at the entrance of residential areas, cobblestone paths in parks... These road conditions, which seem "insignificant" to ordinary people, can be "problems" for manual wheelchair users. On gentle slopes exceeding 10°, manual wheelchair users need to push with all their might, and the wheels can easily slip backward. On uneven surfaces, the wheels can easily get stuck, causing the wheelchair to wobble and potentially leading to loss of balance and falls.
Many manual wheelchair users require assistance from family, friends, or caregivers, especially in physically demanding or challenging situations, making independent travel nearly impossible. This dependence not only burdens those around them but also deprives users of autonomy in their mobility—they must rely on others' schedules to go out and are unable to handle emergencies independently. Over time, this leads to decreased travel frequency and even a "stay-at-home" lifestyle.
Recognizing these real pain points, our team spent three years developing and refining the product details, ultimately launching the wheelchair power attachment. This product is not simply a "power-upgraded" system; rather, it addresses the actual needs of users by employing an intelligent and lightweight design to perfectly solve the mobility challenges of manual wheelchairs, making "independent mobility" a reality.
We firmly believe that good products should be "people-oriented." In designing the Wheelchair Power Attachment, we focused on three core objectives: "lightweight, intelligent, and safe," deeply integrating technology with human-centered design principles to ensure every detail safeguards the user's mobility:
Many users worry that "power units will make wheelchairs heavier and more cumbersome," but the Wheelchair Power Attachment completely eliminates this concern. The product weighs only 5.8kg, equivalent to the weight of a regular backpack, making it easy for both male and female users to remove and install from the storage box.
The installation process requires no tools and only three simple steps:
Align and fasten the power unit's clips with the wheelchair's rear axle;
Secure the device by adjusting the knob to ensure a snug fit;
Connect the battery to the power system and press the start button.
The entire process takes no more than 2 minutes and will not cause any damage or modification to the wheelchair itself. When the power function is not needed, it can be quickly disassembled and stored without affecting the original use of the manual wheelchair—retaining the flexibility of manual mode while adding the convenience of power mode, truly achieving "on-demand switching."
The core highlight of the wheelchair power attachment is its intelligent adaptive power system. This system automatically adjusts the power output based on the user's pushing force and changes in road conditions, making every movement "effortless and smooth."
Force Sensing Adjustment: When the user gently pushes the wheelchair armrest, the power system immediately senses the force signal and outputs matching power. The user does not need to exert full force; applying only 1/3 of the usual force is enough for the wheelchair to move smoothly. The greater the pushing force, the stronger the power output; when the handlebars are released, the power system automatically decelerates and stops to prevent "uncontrolled gliding."
Road Condition Adaptation: The system's built-in pressure and slope sensors detect road conditions in real time. When encountering an uphill slope, the sensors automatically identify the gradient (capable of handling steep inclines up to 15°) and increase power output to help users climb easily without worrying about wheel slippage. When encountering bumpy surfaces, the power system automatically reduces speed and uses a shock-absorbing structure to reduce wheelchair jolting, ensuring a comfortable ride. On flat surfaces, the system maintains a constant speed output, making long-distance travel easier.
Furthermore, we have equipped the product with 3 power modes, which users can freely switch between using buttons on the handlebars:
Low Speed Mode (0-3km/h): Suitable for indoor use, crowded supermarkets, or sidewalks, ensuring safe operation;
Medium Speed Mode (3-6km/h): The best choice for short daily trips, balancing efficiency and safety;
High Speed Mode (greater than 1km/h): Suitable for open spaces such as parks and squares, meeting the needs of long-distance, fast travel.
Safety is always the top priority when traveling. The wheelchair power attachment features comprehensive safety design:
Dual Braking System: In addition to the wheelchair's built-in brakes, the power unit is equipped with an electromagnetic braking system. When the user releases the armrest or presses the brake button, the electromagnetic brake activates immediately, ensuring the wheelchair stops smoothly within 0.5 seconds, preventing backward slippage even on slopes.
Battery Safety Guarantee: Utilizing a high-quality lithium battery, it features overcharge protection, over-discharge protection, and short-circuit protection. The battery casing is made of fire-retardant materials to prevent safety issues caused by battery malfunctions. A full charge provides 40-60 kilometers of continuous use (depending on road conditions and power mode), fully meeting daily travel needs. Even during a full day out, there's no need to worry about running out of power.
Waterproof and dustproof design: The product meets the IP54 waterproof standard, so rain splashes will not affect the normal operation of the power system during rainy weather. The dustproof design effectively prevents dust and mud from entering the device, extending the product's lifespan. It is suitable for outdoor use in parks, residential areas, and other similar locations.
Currently, the Wheelchair Power Attachment is compatible with over 90% of manual wheelchairs on the market, including folding and fixed wheelchairs. As long as the wheelchair axle diameter is between 25-32mm (the standard size for most manual wheelchairs), it can be installed normally. If your wheelchair model is unusual, please contact our customer service team and provide your wheelchair dimensions; we will provide you with a customized fit.
The lithium battery equipped with the product can withstand over 1000 charge-discharge cycles. Based on charging once a day and using it for 300 days a year, the battery life can reach 3-4 years.
We offer a 2-year warranty on the wheelchair power attachment, frame, and motor, and a 1-year warranty on the battery. During the warranty period, if the product experiences quality issues not caused by human error, we will repair or replace parts free of charge. We also provide 24/7 online customer service. No matter what problems you encounter during use, you can contact us at any time. We will respond within 2 hours and provide a solution within 24 hours.
Daily cleaning simply requires wiping the surface of the unit with a damp cloth. Avoid using high-pressure water guns or corrosive cleaning agents. Regularly (recommended every 3 months) check the buckles and screws for looseness; tighten them if necessary. When the battery is not used for a long time, it should be fully charged before storage, and recharged every 3 months to prevent the battery from being depleted and affecting its lifespan.
The wheelchair power attachment's weight and size fully comply with the carrying standards of public transportation (subway, bus, high-speed rail). After disassembly, it can be placed in a dedicated storage bag for easy transport. Furthermore, the product's battery capacity is 7.8Ah, which falls under the category of "non-dangerous lithium batteries" permitted by the Civil Aviation Administration of China. If you plan to travel by air, simply inform the airline in advance and carry the battery with you (it cannot be checked in).
