The newly upgraded Zippie IRIS pediatric tile wheelchair features the revolutionary rotation-in-space design and provides a smaller rotational arc ideally matching the pediatric user's center of gravity.
The Quickie Zippie IRIS Tilt now offers the latest in multiple tilt ranges, swing-in swing-out hangers, and easy adjustments making it the premiere rotation-in-space pediatric wheelchair in its class. The result: an astoundingly lightweight, durable, and easily transportable pediatric wheelchair.
Quickie has developed a dramatic new approach to tilting in space. It's called the Quickie IRIS (Intelligent Rotation In Space). Unlike systems that incorporate a fixed pivot-point, dual pivot-point, or linear element, the Quickie IRIS' rotational design is based on the idea of rotating the seat-frame around a user's center-of-gravity. This, combined with up to 60 of posterior rotation and hi-resolution adjustment, provides the ultimate in control, maneuverability, and stability.
Eliminate the need for exposed cables with the Foot Release Tilt Actuator. Never again worry about cable systems getting in the way. It's easy to operate, clean as a whistle and tangle free. With the latest technology and leading designs, Zippie offers a single source pediatric solution by providing the broadest possible option-set making it easier to meet the user's clinical needs.
This super durable hub lock is now 10 times stronger. Rated at 350 lbs, wheels lock securely into place eliminating the dependence on the rear wheel's tire pressure for a secure, locked position. Minimal adjustments are needed and cables are conveniently kept out of the way making engagement of the hub lock a snap. The locking mechanism provides multiple mounting positions for quick and easy access.
The Quickie Zippie IRIS offers the aesthetically pleasing Quickie style height adjustable armrests featuring a contoured arm pad as well as a standard or low mount receiver. The triggers provide a larger surface for all dexterity needs.
Swing-in/Swing-Out Footrests are excellent for confined spaces and are ideal for reduced hand dexterity.
