Isiqubulo se-Paralympic esithi “Isibindi, Ukuzimisela, Ugqozi, Ukulingana” sithinta kakhulu wonke umdlali we-para-athlete, sibakhuthaza kanye nomhlaba wonke ngomyalezo onamandla wokuqina kanye nokwenza kahle. U-Ines Lopez, inhloko ye-Swedish Paralympic Elite Program, waphawula, “Umdlandla wabadlali be-para-athlete ufana nowabadlali abangakhubazekile: uthando lomdlalo, ukuphishekela ukunqoba, ukwenza kahle, kanye nokwephula amarekhodi.” Naphezu kokukhubazeka ngokomzimba noma ngokwengqondo, laba badlali bahlanganyela kwezemidlalo ezifana nezabo abangakhubazekile, besebenzisa imishini ekhethekile futhi belandela imithetho yokuncintisana eguquliwe eyenzelwe ukulinganisa inkundla yokudlala.
Ngemuva kwezigcawu zeMidlalo yama-Paralympic, izinto ezintsha zobuchwepheshe ezifanaamabhereyi ebholaEzinhlanganweni zokugijima izihlalo zabakhubazekile ziyashintsha indlela abasubathi abancintisana ngayo. Lezi zingxenye ezibonakala zilula zemishini, empeleni, ziyizimangaliso zobuchwepheshe ezithuthukisiwe ezithuthukisa kakhulu isivinini nokulawula izihlalo zabakhubazekile, okwenza abasubathi bakwazi ukufeza amazinga okusebenza angakaze abonwe. Ngokunciphisa ukungqubuzana phakathi kwe-axle yesondo nohlaka, ama-ball bearings athuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kokushelela kanye nesivinini, okuvumela abasubathi ukuba basheshise ngokushesha futhi bagubhe amabanga amade ngokuzikhandla okuncane ngokomzimba.
Ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezidingo ezihlukile zemidlalo yama-Paralympic, ama-ball bearing aye athuthukiswa kakhulu futhi athuthukiswa. Ngokusebenzisa izinto ezilula nezinamandla aphezulu njenge-ceramics noma ama-alloy akhethekile, la ma-bearing awagcini nje ngokunciphisa isisindo sonke sesihlalo sabakhubazekile kodwa futhi athuthukisa ukuphendula kanye nokunyakaza. Imiklamo evaliwe iqinisekisa ukuqina nokuthembeka ezimweni ezahlukahlukene, inikeza abasubathi ulwazi olungenakukhathazeka.
Kusukela ngo-2015, i-SKF ibilokhu ingumxhasi oziqhenyayo we-Swedish Paralympic Committee kanye ne-Swedish Paralympic Sports Federation, enikeza ukwesekwa kwezezimali nobuchwepheshe. Lobu budlelwano abuzange busize nje kuphela ukukhula kwezemidlalo ze-para-sports eSweden kodwa futhi bube negalelo ekuthuthukisweni kwemishini ethuthukisa ukusebenza kwabasubathi. Isibonelo, ngo-2015, isihlalo sabakhubazekile somsubathi ophambili uGunilla Wahlgren sasifakwe ama-bearings e-ceramic ahlanganisiwe e-SKF, anamabhola e-ceramic kanye nekheji le-nylon. Lawa ma-bearings, anokungqubuzana kwawo okuncishisiwe uma kuqhathaniswa nama-bearings ensimbi yonke, enze umehluko omkhulu ekuncintisaneni kwabasubathi.
Ngokusho kukaLopez, “Ukubambisana ne-SKF kubaluleke kakhulu kithi. Ngenxa yokusekelwa yi-SKF, imishini yethu ithuthuke kakhulu ekhwalithini yezinto ezibonakalayo, futhi abasubathi bethu bathuthuke kakhulu ekusebenzeni.” Ngisho nomehluko omncane ngesikhathi ungenza umehluko omkhulu emiphumeleni yemincintiswano evelele.
Ukusetshenziswa kwama-ball bearings ezihlalweni zabakhubazekile zomjaho akuyona nje inhlanganisela yobuchwepheshe kanye ne-biomechanics; kuyisibonelo esijulile somoya we-Paralympic. Kubonisa indlela ubuchwepheshe obunganika ngayo amandla abasubathi ukunqoba izithiyo zomzimba nokukhulula amandla abo aphelele. Wonke umdlali unethuba lokubonisa isibindi sakhe, ukuzimisela, namakhono akhe esiteji somhlaba wonke, okufakazela ukuthi ngosizo lobuchwepheshe, abantu bangadlula imikhawulo yomzimba futhi bafisele impumelelo ephezulu, esheshayo, neqinile kwezemidlalo.
