Straight-line Light Wheelchair COLORS
Pamphlet
Our philosophy is to create a community where people of all ages, from children to the elderly, can coexist together regardless of their disabilities. Under the slogan, "Services we would recommend to our loved ones," we genuinely provide services that we would recommend to our own parents and loved ones.
We are developing a variety of new products and services, both tangible and intangible, by identifying local issues and needs through learning in the actual field of welfare. We are working to create open innovation that is not bound by industry or system, such as the "straight-line light wheelchair" that was developed in cooperation with Ota City factories and won the top prize in the Ota City Small and Medium Enterprises New Products & New Technologies Concours , as well as cooperating in the development of medication support and monitoring robots.

Original Wheelchair COLORS
This wheelchair is designed to be easy to maneuver with little effort from caregivers who have limited muscle strength, regardless of the surface slope. The wheelchair can also easily overcome bumps in the road, such as on the shoulder of the road where the sidewalk meets the roadway. The front wheels, which are normally used to change direction, are intentionally fixed, and fifth and sixth rear wheels are installed behind the main wheels. By fixing the front wheels, the wheelchair can travel in a straight line with as little force as one hand, and by applying a slight load to the handle, the rear wheels can be used to change direction, making it easy for even elderly people to operate intuitively. This is a wheelchair with a new mechanism realized through the collaboration of a local factory and a welfare company. Winner of the Grand Prize at Ota City Small and Medium Enterprises New Products & New Technologies Concours. Patent obtained (Patent No. 6664794).
