Anodized Aluminum Alloy & Pyramid Tower Frame Architecture

Constructed from premium aviation-grade anodized aluminum alloy (incorporating magnesium and silicon alloy elements) with an oxidation surface treatment that resists corrosion, scratches, and outdoor moisture. The innovative pyramid (tower-shaped) reinforced chassis distributes weight evenly across all stress points, providing high structural rigidity and a safe load capacity of up to 100 kg (220 lbs).

Ultralight 8 kg Chassis with Single-Hand 1-Step Quick Folding

Weighing an ultra-light net weight of just 8 kg, this transport chair can be lifted effortlessly with one hand by female caregivers, teenagers, or elderly family members. The pull-latch lock allows users to collapse or unfold the chair in just one step within seconds, eliminating complex folding procedures.

Airline-Approved & Compact Car Trunk Transport (30 × 78 × 48 cm)

Folds down into an ultra-compact footprint measuring only 30 × 78 × 48 cm. The streamlined profile satisfies international commercial airline carry-on/checked luggage specifications and fits easily into tight sedan trunks, taxicabs, subways, and high-speed train luggage bays, leaving ample space for extra travel bags.

280° Vertical Flip-Up Armrests for Barrier-Free Lateral Transfers

Both side armrests pivot backward a full 280 degrees, clearing lateral physical obstructions. This design allows seniors and individuals with lower-limb weakness to perform seamless, zero-barrier slide transfers between the wheelchair, automobile seats, dining chairs, or beds without physical lifting exertion.

360° Swivel Casters, Solid Rear Tires & Dual-Function Handbrakes

Equipped with 6-inch omnidirectional front casters offering smooth 360° turning flexibility in narrow hallways, paired with 8-inch wear-resistant solid rear tires that require zero inflation and eliminate puncture risks. The new dual-function handbrake system provides both active deceleration braking while pushing and a firm parking lock for stationary sitting.

Comfortable Mesh Cushion, Safety Belt & Curb-Climbing Tipper Pedal

Features a high-density, breathable honeycomb mesh seat cushion that prevents heat and moisture accumulation during prolonged sitting. Complete with an adjustable safety restraint belt to prevent forward leaning, foldable aluminum footplates, a rear curb-climbing tipper pedal for stepping over small obstacles, and a backrest storage pocket for personal travel items.
