Abstract

Standing-up motion assistant machine is a new type of assistant device for the care and motion of the semi-disabled, which can replace the manual motion mode to a great extent and reduce the workload of the care-givers. After a detailed analysis of shortcomings of the structural design of the existing standing-up motion assistant machine in the practical application in elderly institutions, this paper proposes a design scheme and mechanical structure of the hanger. The optimized product is verified based on ergonomics theory. Results show that the design scheme and structure of the hanger of the motion assistant machine proposed in this paper can satisfy the requirements of occupant comfort on the premise of ensuring safety, as well as effectively expand the application of the standing-up motion assistant machine in elderly institutions of varied facility levels.
