Advancement of wheelchair hand-rim

凤凰本能正在开发一种先进的轮椅手圈，以达到最高的能源效率，抓地力和舒适性。训练鞋的特性变成了轮椅的推进力。该项目旨在提高自行轮椅使用者的独立性。凤凰本能在移动领域以创造改善生活的产品而闻名。该公司创始人兼首席执行官安德鲁·斯洛兰斯本人也是一名轮椅使用者，他在2015年开发了世界上唯一一款与轮椅兼容的行李系统，并在2020年凭借世界上首款SMART轮椅赢得了丰田移动无限挑战赛。“创新英国”的拨款将允许该企业开发一种被称为“手部训练鞋”的产品。由于自行推进的轮椅是第一次构思，他们已经推动持有一个狭窄的管状轨道安装到车轮。这个最重要的部件，对轮椅的推动和控制是至关重要的，早就应该升级了。安德鲁·斯洛兰斯说，他很高兴有机会继续推动轮椅技术的发展，这是他自1983年脊椎受伤导致瘫痪以来一直在努力做的事情。

Phoenix Instinct is developing an advanced wheelchair hand-rim for ultimate energy efficiency, grip and comfort. The qualities of a training shoe turned to wheelchair propulsion.The project aims to enhance independence for users of self propelled wheelchairs. Phoenix Instinct is known in the mobility sector for creating life enhancing products. Founder and CEO Andrew Slorance himself a wheelchair user developed the World's only wheelchair compatible luggage system in 2015 and in 2020 won the Toyota Mobility Unlimited Challenge with the World's first SMART wheelchair.The grant award from Innovate UK will allow the business to develop what is described as a training shoe for hands. Since self propelled wheelchairs were fist conceived they have been pushed by holding a narrow tubular rail fitted to the wheel. This most essential component, fundamental to how easily a wheelchair is pushed and controlled is long overdue for an upgrade.Andrew Slorance said he was thrilled to have the opportunity to keep advancing wheelchair technology, something he has strived ti do since a spinal injury in 1983 left him paralysed.
