Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1374818A1] A portable folding wheelchair includes a front U-shaped tube and a rear U-shaped tube pivotally coupling with each other through a pin to form a X-shape. The front U-shaped tube has an upper end on two sides to fasten to a connection plate. The connection plate connects to a backrest. The front U-shaped tube has a lower section on two sides to pivotally engage with an upright tube. The upright tube and the rear U-shaped tube have an upper end bridging a sleeve. The wheelchair has a simple structure and may be folded in forward, rearward, upward and downward directions to become a smaller size to facilitate carrying or storing in a car to enable disabled people to use in travels and trips. <IMAGE>
