Abstract: An exemplary wheelchair comprises a main frame and a seat frame. Drive wheels and pivoting caster wheels are affixed to and support the main frame. The seat frame is connected to the main frame via left and right rear linkage arms, each rear linkage arm having a first end pivotally connected to the main frame and a second end pivotally connected to the seat frame, thereby allowing the seat frame to pivot relative to the main frame around a virtual pivot point. A seat plate having right, left, front, and rear sides is supported by the seat frame. A backrest frame is also connected to the seat frame. Left and right guide slots of the seat frame receive left and right guide rollers rotationally arranged at each end of a laterally oriented shaft connected to the main frame. The rear linkage arms and guide slots are configured so the virtual pivot point of the seat frame moves rearward when the seat frame is moved from an upright position to a tilted position.

Abstract: A handle brake device comprising: —a housing fixable onto the handlebar of the wheelchair or the wheeled walker, —a brake lever rotatably installed on said housing , —a transmission cable connected to said brake lever through a cable connector, said cable connector defining a connecting point, characterized in that the brake lever comprises a first arc hole and a second arc hole, inside each of which a pivot pin fixedly connected to said housing is slideably engaged in such a manner as to provide dual pivot for the brake lever, respectively a first pivot and a second pivot.

Abstract: The invention concerns a handle brake device (10) suitable for being installed on a handlebar (11) of a wheelchair, a wheeled walker, a bicycle, a motorbike, a scooter or any type of transportation device that makes use of a manually driven brake to control a transmission cable connected at one end to the hand brake device (10) and at the other end to a brake mechanism mounted on a wheel of the wheelchair or the wheeled walker comprising:—a housing (1) fixable onto the handlebar (11) of the wheelchair or the wheeled walker,—a brake lever (2) rotatably installed on said housing (1),—a transmission cable connected to said brake lever (2) through a cable connector (4), said cable connector (4) defining a connecting point, characterized in that the brake lever (2) comprises a first arc hole (16) and a second arc hole (17), inside each of which a pivot pin (13?, 13?) fixedly connected to said housing (1) is slideably engaged in such a manner as to provide dual pivot for the brake lever (2), respectively a first pi
