The Push Handles mount to the backrest hinge and allow the wheelchair to be pushed by a caregiver (to fine tune the position of wheelchair for vehicle transport, when the power source is depleted, etc.) For configurations with a low 20″ backrest, the push handles can provide a place to hook the elbow to provide pressure relief, stability and promote safe forward or lateral reach.
Power wheelchairs offer unmatched independence, but having manual control options is equally crucial for daily maneuvering, caregiving routines, and vehicle transport. Whether fine-tuning your wheelchair’s position in tight quarters or navigating unexpected power loss, having dedicated handles makes handling your powerchair effortless and safe.
Corpus 3G Push Handles are engineered specifically for Permobil wheelchairs equipped with the Corpus 3G Seating System. Mounting directly to the backrest hinge, these rugged handles provide caregivers with a reliable leverage point while offering wheelchair users enhanced upper-body stability during everyday activities.
Powerchairs are heavy, precision-engineered machines. Attempting to push or guide a powerchair by grabbing the seat backrest or armrests can damage delicate electronics, misalign power positioning hardware, or cause injury to caregivers.
Seamless Vehicle Transport: Easily guide your powerchair into vans, accessible buses, or onto wheelchair lifts where precise, small manual adjustments are needed.
Emergency Maneuvering: Push the chair smoothly when the power source is turned off or fully depleted.
Caregiver Ergonomics: Placed at an optimal height to reduce back strain and wrist fatigue for attendants and family members.
Preserves Seating Hardware: Avoids applying uneven manual pressure to sensitive power tilt-and-recline actuators.
Generic bolt-on handles often shift, loosen, or flex under heavy loads. The Corpus 3G Push Handles are designed as an integrated component of Permobil’s seating architecture, mounting securely to the backrest hinge.
Heavy-Duty Construction: Built to handle the weight of heavy powerchair bases without bending.
Clean Aesthetic: Matches the sleek design profile of Corpus 3G power seating systems.
Unobstructed Function: Positioned to avoid interfering with rear accessories, ventilator trays, or battery holders.
Beyond caregiver assistance, Corpus 3G Push Handles offer significant functional benefits directly to the wheelchair user especially when paired with low-profile backrest options.
This simple physical anchoring technique helps users:
Perform Independent Pressure Relief: Hooking an elbow provides leverage to shift body weight and unload pressure from seating contact points.
Promote Safe Forward Reach: Creates a stable anchor point when leaning forward to grab items from tables, desks, or counters.
Improve Lateral Stability: Helps maintain trunk balance when navigating uneven outdoor surfaces or side slopes.
Choosing genuine Permobil seating components guarantees perfect fitment and structural integrity. Corpus 3G Push Handles seamlessly combine caregiver convenience with functional user positioning, making them a smart, practical addition to any Corpus powerchair setup.
