Safex Inc wheelchair is a mobility device used by individuals who have difficulty walking or moving around independently due to a variety of reasons, including injury, disability, illness, or age-related mobility issues. Wheelchairs provide users with the ability to move from one place to another with greater ease and independence. Here are some key features and considerations regarding wheelchairs:

1. Seat and Frame: The seat of a wheelchair provides a supportive platform for the user to sit on, while the frame serves as the structural backbone of the wheelchair. Wheelchair frames are typically made from materials such as steel, aluminum, or titanium, with varying degrees of durability, weight, and portability.

2. Wheels: Wheelchairs have two large rear wheels and two smaller front wheels. Rear wheels are usually larger to provide greater propulsion and stability, while front wheels are smaller for maneuverability. Some wheelchairs may have additional anti-tip wheels or casters for added stability.

3. Propulsion: Manual wheelchairs are propelled by the user pushing the wheels with their hands, while power wheelchairs are electrically powered and controlled by a joystick or other input device. Manual wheelchairs offer greater exercise and control for the user but require physical exertion, while power wheelchairs offer convenience and ease of use.

4. Folding vs. Rigid Frame: Wheelchairs may have folding frames that allow them to collapse for storage and transportation, making them more portable. Rigid frame wheelchairs have a fixed frame for increased durability and performance but are less compact for travel.

5. Seating Options: Wheelchairs come with various seating options to accommodate different user needs and preferences. These may include standard sling seats, contoured seats, or specialized cushions for pressure relief and comfort.

6. Adjustability: Many wheelchairs offer adjustable features such as seat height, backrest angle, armrest height, and footrest position to accommodate individual user dimensions and comfort requirements.

7. Weight Capacity: Wheelchairs are available in different weight capacities to accommodate users of varying sizes and body types. It's essential to select a wheelchair with an appropriate weight capacity to ensure user safety and comfort.

8. Accessories: Wheelchairs may come with a range of accessories to enhance functionality and user experience. These may include armrest pouches, cup holders, seat belts, oxygen tank holders, and rear-mounted backpacks.

9. User-Friendly Design: Modern wheelchairs are designed with user comfort and convenience in mind. They often feature ergonomic handles, easy-to-operate brakes, and intuitive controls for smooth maneuverability.

10. Regulatory Standards: Wheelchairs must meet regulatory standards and safety requirements established by organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to ensure quality, durability, and safety for users.
