Active wheelchairs in all variants

Advantages of active wheelchairs / adaptive wheelchairs

The “active” in the word active wheelchairs is actually self-explanatory. These wheelchairs are actively propelled by the wheelchair user and can be individually adapted to the user’s needs at any time. They enable users to be an active part of society in everyday life. The more precise the customization, the more active and independent the users are. Active wheelchairs are usually lighter, highly maneuverable models that can be moved with less effort. At the same time, they offer very good seating and riding characteristics. The greatest advantage is therefore the individual adaptation options for maximum independence and mobility in everyday life.

The term ” active wheelchair ” has been replaced by ” adaptive wheelchair” in official usage, at least in the GKV list of aids and also by the cost bearers. The term adaptive is a synonym for “adapting”, which describes these wheelchairs perfectly. Adaptive or active wheelchairs are divided into two types, namely models with a folding or rigid frame. Folding wheel chairs are often somewhat heavier than comparable rigid-frame wheelchairs due to their folding mechanism. Active wheelchairs with a rigid frame are usually more stable than folding wheelchairs and the drive power used is transmitted directly. In addition, the rigid active wheelchair is usually lighter than a foldable active wheelchair, as no folding mechanism is required

Active wheelchairs for children and young people

Children’s wheelchairs and cantel wheelchairs can also be active wheelchairs or adaptive wheelchairs. A wide range of customization options are particularly important for these models. SORG Wheelchair Technology offers special children’s active wheelchairs with a wide range of equipment, allowing the wheelchairs to be individually adapted to the youngest of the young and giving them the opportunity to participate in life independently.

What types of active wheelchairs are there?

Kind Use
Rigid frame wheelchair

Everyday wheelchair with high stability and direct power transmission. This means that it can be driven with little effort and is very maneuverable. It is also usually lighter than the other variants.

This is the most common variant in the active sector.

Foldable wheelchair

The foldable wheelchair is the right companion if you need the smallest possible pack size for traveling or in the car.

Due to the folding mechanism, a foldable wheelchair is less torsion-resistant and usually heavier than a rigid-frame wheelchair. It therefore scores highly in situations where space is at a premium.

Tiltable active wheelchair An active wheelchair that allows you to switch to a passive “resting position” if required is particularly useful for children. (see Mio Move). The Tilty Vario and Loop RS also master the balancing act between self-driving and relaxing while tilting wonderfully.
Sports wheelchair Whether tennis, wheelchair rugby, basketball or one of the other sports. Many sports have their own type of sports wheelchair that is adapted to the sport being practiced.
