Power-Flex is a powered drive attachment that converts a compatible rigid-frame manual wheelchair to joystick-controlled mobility. It is intended for disabled users who can operate both powered and manual wheelchairs. The system replaces the manual chair’s rear wheels while retaining its front casters.
Two motors drive the attached wheels, with a microprocessor controlling speed, acceleration, deceleration and braking in response to the joystick. The drive assembly connects through the chair’s axle receivers and a rear clamp on its rigidizer bar.
Drive Configuration
The system includes batteries, controls, a power supply, stabilizing caster wheels and a manual tilt mechanism that also limits tipping. Its stated maximum user weight is 275 pounds, and it uses rechargeable lead-acid batteries.
