I’m Usa-chan, the “wheelchair x beauty” funny x model! In DisabilityLog, as a SNS influencer, I hope to provide lots of useful information for people with disabilities. I will also enjoy providing information about beauty, travel, sightseeing, music, photography, and other hobbies.

What wheelchair manufacturers do you know?

The electric wheelchairs I have introduced so far are from Yamaha and WHILL, but there are other wheelchair manufacturers as well.

The International Home Care & Rehabilitation Exhibition (HCR) is held at Tokyo Big Sight, and wheelchair users visit the event to find a wheelchair supplier that suits their needs and to use the information as a reference when purchasing a wheelchair.

I am very curious. Please let me know!

Who are the four major manufacturers of wheelchairs?

Currently, there are four major Japanese wheelchair manufacturers (Miki, Kawamura Cycle, Nissin Medical Equipment, and Matsunaga Seisakusho).

Wheelchairs made by these top Japanese manufacturers undergo rigorous safety and durability testing in accordance with JIS standards.

Other than Yamaha’s and WHILL’s electric wheelchairs, what else is there?

Permobil

What kind of electric wheelchairs does Permobil make?

The Permobile electric wheelchair is recommended for those who need to move seats.

Permobil Power Wheelchairs – 車いすのプロショップ「イフ」
北欧スウェーデンに本社を置く「ペルモビール(Permobil AB)」は、約50年以上に渡り電動車いすのリーディングカンパニーとして発展を続け、今では世界70カ国以上にグローバルな事業を展開しています。

For electric wheelchair users, electric sit-to-stand functions, including lift and tilt, are necessary not only to maintain and improve health, but also to enhance quality of life, right?

Advantages

There are functions that allow this electric wheelchair to recline (the ability to fall backward), standing posture (the ability to stand) and seat elevation (the seat of the wheelchair can be raised or lowered).

They are recommended not only because they reduce the risk of secondary complications from prolonged sitting in a wheelchair, but also because they provide many social and psychological benefits, such as the ability to enjoy communication with a higher eye level, reach higher places, and promote user independenc

Disadvantages

However, because of its high-performance features among electric wheelchairs, it is considerably more expensive than ordinary electric wheelchairs, and even with subsidies, it is still quite expensive, which can be a hindrance to its purchase.

Incidentally, the amount is said to be more than 1 million yen.

Now that you know more about other wheelchair manufacturers, what do you think of their wheelchairs?

I hope you will all try to choose the wheelchair that is right for you.

Past WHILL Model articles

Since “WHILL Model F” and “WHILL Model C2” have become mainstream, we introduced their “features” and “types of arm cover colors.

I introduced “mileage” and “battery charge time.”

The differences between WHILL’s electric wheelchairs “WHILL Model F” and “WHILL Model C2” were introduced.
