A kit of parts which when assembled will provide a wheeled chair and include a central frame member to which all other elements are connected.

An apparatus includes a frame assembly configured to be selectively connectable with a seat assembly of a wheelchair assembly once the seat assembly is selectively disconnected and removed from the wheelchair assembly. The frame assembly is also configured to be selectively connectable with spaced-apart wheel assemblies of the wheelchair assembly once the spaced-apart wheel assemblies are selectively disconnected and removed from the wheelchair assembly.

An auxiliary frame system for a wheelchair, the wheelchair having a frame comprising two openings to releasably attach axle portions of rear wheels and defining between them a main rear wheel axis; wherein the auxiliary frame system comprises: a pair of wheel displacing elements; fastening elements to releasably attach each wheel displacing element to the frame of the wheelchair through the openings; wheel holders for bearing respective rear wheels of the wheelchair, wherein each of the wheel holders is associated with a respective wheel displacing element, and the wheel holders define between them a shifted rear wheel axis; at least one anchoring link to releasably secure at least one of the wheel displacing elements to the frame of the wheelchair at an additional attachment point. Also provided are wheelchairs comprising such auxiliary frame system and methods to displace the position of rear wheels of a wheelchair.

A wheelchair comprises a frame and two main wheels each coupled to a hand rim for actuating the wheels in both directions of rotation and for braking.

A wheelchair can comprise a frame and a plurality of wheels rotatably attached to the frame, and a motor coupled to the frame. A power source can be configured to power the motor. A drive shaft can be coupled to the motor. A first sprocket can be coupled to the drive shaft. A second sprocket can be configured to be rotationally fixed to a wheel of the plurality of wheels. A drive belt or chain can extend between the first sprocket and the second sprocket. An input device can be configured to receive an input from an operator and, in response to receiving the input, cause the motor to rotate.

A mobility assistive device includes a first frame including a first support and a first wheel, a second frame including a second support and second wheels, and a connecting structure including first connecting boards connected to the first support. The second support includes a supporting rod and abutting portions. Each first connecting board has a slot for being engaged with the supporting rod, an abutting surface for abutting against the abutting portions, and a perforation. Each positioning member is disposed on one the second support, and includes a positioning portion. When the slots are engaged with the supporting rod and the abutting surfaces are abutted against the abutting portions, the positioning portions are movable between a locked position and a released position. When in the locked position, the positioning portions are inserted into the perforations. When in the released position, the positioning portions are drew out from the perforations.

Disclosed are provisions for enabling a user of a wheelchair to rapidly outfit a first side of the wheelchair with a first implement or a second implement, both implements having adaptive functionalities, and also for enabling the user to perform the same in conjunction with a second side of the wheelchair. Useful implements include those having: A.) ground-contacting functionalities, such as improving navigation over rough terrain and adding forward stability to the wheelchair, and B.) non-ground-contacting elevated functionalities, including holding an umbrella, carrying an electronic device, or supporting a tray, work surface, or other auxiliary load.

A wheelchair frame assembly for a self-balancing board. The wheelchair frame assembly is mountable to the self-balancing board. The self-balancing board includes at least one gyroscopic assembly and includes two wheels on opposing ends of an axle, controlled by two upper surfaces that independently pivot about the axle. Independent pivoting of each of the two upper surfaces controls a speed of an adjacent wheel, and a direction of the self-balancing board. The wheelchair frame assembly includes a seat, a footrest, a forward caster wheel, a rearward caster wheel, a left handlebar, and a right handlebar. The handlebars interface with the two upper surfaces to enable an individual seated in the wheelchair frame assembly to control speed and direction of the self-balancing board by moving the handlebars, thereby pivoting the two upper surfaces and causing the two wheels to independently rotate.

The invention relates to an adaptive attachment wheel for wheelchairs, formed as a unit consisting of: a wheel (5); frame segments (1); adaptation shells (7, 8) for lateral guidance on the wheelchair front tubes; and at least one holding element (6) that can be fastened to the wheelchair; such that, when the adaptive attachment wheel is attached to the wheel-chair, the adaptation shells (7, 8) are brought together with the wheelchair front tubes, the front casters of which are lifted off of the ground, and a three-wheeled wheelchair is produced, the front wheel (5) of which can be steered and braked by means of an one-hand steering system (13).

An auxiliary drive device for a wheelchair has at least one electrically driven drive wheel and a coupling mechanism for coupling the auxiliary drive device to the wheelchair. The coupling mechanism includes a movable locking element which is movably supported in the coupling mechanism. The movable locking element can be in a locking position in which it causes locking in a positive-locking manner so that the auxiliary drive device is coupled to the wheelchair and, by operation of a handle, the locking element can be moved in a release position in which uncoupling of the auxiliary drive device from the wheelchair is possible.
