Changzhou City, China, June 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jin Medical International Ltd. (the "Company" or “JinMed”) (NASDAQ: ZJYL), a Cayman Islands holding company with Chinese operating entities that manufacture and develop wheelchairs and living aids products, today released a new ultralight electric wheelchair model and a new electric mobility vehicle model for the elderly. The two new models have been developed in collaboration with Nanjing Tech University (“NJTech”), which is a top-tier university with over 100 years of history and is well-known for its training programs for engineers in China. JinMed is responsible for the development and manufacturing of the new models’ electrical components, while NJTech oversees the new models’ style and industrial design.

Automatic Folding Wheelchair
The newly released ultralight and portable wheelchair model is equipped with dual brushless motors and an electromagnetic safety brake system designed to offer reliable performance on slopes with optimal safety. Its large-capacity battery allows for an extended single-charge range of over 25km, while the quick-release battery box design offers both convenience and security.
The new model has a compact and user-friendly interface, which enables 360-degree remote control and a USB plug for powering mobile devices. The new model is made of high-strength aluminum alloy materials but weighs only 21.5kg. It also features a one-button reclining function for the backrest (up to 130 degrees) and an adjustable headrest, providing users with the option to rest in a lying position.
The newly released electric mobility vehicle model is a branded “E-Scooter” which incorporates multidimensional folding technology, so it can be folded into a compact size. Also featuring a powerful motor, safety brake design, the E-Scooter has a large display screen for precise route measurement that is powered by a GPS positioning system to facilitate a worry-free travel experience. The model provides an extended battery life, while the LED headlights are designed to make night-time travel safer. The E-Scooter's design comes in a range of colors and is also made of high-strength lightweight aluminum alloy and a carbon fiber structural skeleton.
Mr Erqi Wang, Chairman and CEO of the Company commented: “Currently electric wheelchairs products attribute to a small portion of our sales and are only sold to a few selected customers to test the markets for these products. We believe the new products being introduced this time represent an important milestone of JinMed’s electric wheelchair and electric mobility scooter products. They represent a significant addition to our existing line of wheelchairs, and address the current market demand for convenient mobility solutions. We expect that these products will provide customers with a superior and more enjoyable experience. Through our collaboration with NJTech, we have developed a cutting-edge product that combines style, functionality, and practicality. NJTech brings their expertise in product styling and industrial design, while JinMed contributes its expertise in electrical components design, resulting in products that we are proud to bring to market.”
“Based on pre-sales order demand, we expect to sell about 2,000 units of the new ultra-lightweight electric wheelchairs and 3,000 units of the new mobility scooters annually.”
“Our commitment to quality and innovation drives us forward as we continue to develop products that meet the needs of our customers. We expect that our partnership with NJTech will yield more groundbreaking products in the future and we look forward to sharing them with our stakeholders.”
