A detachable wheelchair is a versatile mobility aid designed with removable or detachable components, such as armrests, footrests, and sometimes wheels, for easier transport, storage, or customization. This type of wheelchair allows users to remove parts to make it lighter or more compact, making it easier to transfer into vehicles, fit through tight spaces, or customize based on the user’s needs.
Key features of a detachable wheelchair include:
- Removable armrests: Allows for easier side transfers and better accessibility.
- Detachable footrests: Can be removed for comfort or space-saving purposes during transportation.
- Folding frame: Often designed to fold for easy storage and transportation.
- Lightweight: The detachable parts make it easier to transport and carry.
- Customizable: Allows the user to adjust the wheelchair to their preferences, whether for comfort or specific needs.
Detachable wheelchairs are commonly used in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, or for personal use to offer greater convenience, flexibility, and adaptability for individuals with mobility challenges.
