How Electric Wheelchairs Work and How They Aide the Disabled http://www.electricwheelchairscooter.com/electr... Electric wheelchairs are manufactured for people who have trouble using manual wheelchairs. The advantage of electric wheelchairs is that it has internal power and therefore does not have to be pushed. The benefit is that chair user is more independent and both does not have to push themself and does not have to depend on others to move around. Instead of pushing yourself, you simply use knobs and adjusters to control the chair.
The two major types of chairs are powered by gears or belt drives. Gear drives are more modern and quiet and the maintenance is minimal. The disadvantage with gear power is the belts wear down fairly rapidly and becomes noisy. The older type of electric wheelchair are powered by belts where maintenance is high.
