Convaid wheelchairs use a patented "spring loaded" frame design that
allows some frame flexibility for bumps and uneven surfaces. This revolutionary
concept also reduces frame stress and provides natural shock absortion. |
 |
To
test this, Convaid has developed a frame wracking test
machine. Basically, this machine grabs the wheels and twists
the frame back and forth. After 10,000 cycles at 8 degrees
deflection, all wheelchairs tested still tracked straight.
Convaid is the only wheelchair manufacturing company that
subjects its designs to the Wrack Test. Tested Models include
the Cruiser,
Metro,
EZ
Rider, Scout,
Safari,
Convertible, and the Rodeo.
