Custom Wheelchair For Obese Person
by Arman Panji
Brooke decided that he needed a wheelchair. Crutches is no option since, you see, he weight almost 300 pounds. So its kinda heavy on his arms. After dinner he turn on his laptop, open up his favorite search engine and start his research (with a little notebook and pencil to write down important stuff).
After a couple of hours he completed his note and decided that he need get a special wheelchair for obese person.
These are a couple of Brookes notes. Have a look if youre interested :
1. A wheelchair of obese person have the seating reinforced with steel frame. It is required to withstand the weight of an obese person riding on it.
2. On some model the tires no longer have air in it. Instead, durable materials such as urethane is used to fill the tires and this makes the wheelchair more robust.
3. Common wheelchairs have a narrow wheelbase and can be hard to maneuver . A wheelchair for obese person have a wider wheelbase thus its easier to handle.
4. Custom wheelchair for obese person have a wider wheel which means better support.
So, after making the decision about the wheelchair He start selecting on which type to use. He understand that with a manual wheelchair he can get a constant exercise though it will only impact his upper part. With an electric wheelchair he can move easily without breaking a sweat.
After a while he decided to go for the electric. 'If I want a workout then ill just go to the gym', thats what he think. And hes right. A wheelchair is a mobility device and even if a person is wheelchair bound it should not be considered as an exercise equipment.
After finishing his research Brooke went to bed. He dream about riding his new wheelchair, chasing his kids around the house and get scolded by his wife. 'Sorry dear', he mumbled in his sleep.
