Gearwheel
More power and increased safety
GEARWHEEL's interchangeable wheelchair wheels are adapted for manual wheelchairs.
Gearwheel
The patented solution combines the ability to switch smoothly and easily between the two gears that are built into each wheel and also includes a backstop, which prevents the wheelchair from rolling backwards when used in uphill positions.
The use and design do not differ significantly from ordinary wheelchair wheels. Driving uphill or in different environments only gets smoother and safer. Gearwheel provides 40% more power in downshifted position and the backstop provides increased safety.
Good on slopes
"The possibility of varying gears makes everyday life easier. The downshift gives more power and with the backstop locked, the wheelchair does not roll backwards and gives time to take a new grip or rest on slopes."
THAT IS HOW IT WORKS
Shifting is done by turning the gear lever located on the outside of each wheel. The only thing that needs to be mounted on the wheelchair is an adapter and with it it is possible to switch to the standard wheels if the need arises.
GEARWHEEL wheels have three gear positions.
-1: 1 (traditional)
-Disconnected
-Developed + reverse lock
The downshift gives about 40% more power to the drive ring when driving.
