The global population aging problem is getting worse, and people all over the world are facing more severe challenges. The corresponding market for elderly products has also emerged. From daily food, clothing, housing and transportation to elderly medical care, they are all important components of the elderly industry.

Electric wheelchairs are one of the most effective life helpers in the daily life of the elderly. Electric wheelchairs are wheelchairs with an added electric motor and navigation control means. Usually a small joystick is installed on the armrest.

In terms of charging, the electric wheelchair uses a magnetic charging connector solution, which is innovative and challenging. The magnetic connector actively and quickly detaches from the base, with no risk of the rear section pulling off when separated from the frame, and is magnetically held in place when approached, making the process easier, faster and more elegant.

In practical applications, magnetic connector has the following advantages:

  1. Convenience: The magnetic charging connector method allows the electric wheelchair to automatically adsorb and align with the charging port through magnetic attraction when it is close to the charger. There is no need to precisely plug and unplug the charging plug like the traditional charging method. For electric wheelchair users with limited mobility, the operation is simpler and more convenient, reducing the difficulty of use.
  2. Safety: The magnetic feature ensures the stability of the charging port when connected, reducing safety risks caused by accidental touch, interruption of charging or loosening of the port, such as short circuit, leakage, etc. At the same time, some magnetic spring pin charging designs will also add fool-proof design to prevent the positive and negative poles from being connected in reverse, further improving the safety of charging.
  3. High efficiency: Compared with traditional charging methods, the contact resistance of pogo pin magnetic charging is relatively small, which can improve the charging efficiency and reduce the charging time to a certain extent.

The magnetic charging connector solution for electric wheelchairs not only improves the convenience and safety of charging, but also significantly improves the durability and design flexibility of the equipment. It is an important development direction of electric wheelchair charging technology in the future.
