Automated stretcher convertible to wheel chair
Project Area of Specialization Biomedical EngineeringProject SummaryWe aim to develop a concept for an automated stretcher convertible to wheel chair with the motivation of seving humanity, saving space and precluding exertion by the patient.
The conversion of this machine makes patient mobility easier. This project combines the concept of patient mobility and patient transfer. This is an excellent choice for a person seeking for two features, rather than going for two different products, he can choose our automated stretcher convertible to wheelchair integrated with two different features.
Taking in account all the considerations related to physically handicapped people our design provide simple and cost effective construction. On the basis of marketing survey and all problems of complexity and economy, we design new product which is user-friendly and automated.
Our study shows that it is possible to save space by our project design. The product will thus likely be an efficient mobility aid in hospitals.
Project ObjectivesTo provide disabled people an Automated Mode of technology and a better way for a handicapped to peruse his disability into manufactured ability.
A person having disability to move from one place to another without assistance can have vision of independency to move.
A paralyzed or a handicapped person who are financially weak and cannot afford a power wheel chair for themselves can now afford a cost effective project made by our team.
In a pandemic situation as like covid-19 the limited number of beds in every hospital especiallly in pakistan were occupied and had shortage for new incoming patients for the treatment. Due to scarcity of beds patients were forced to lie on the floor.
Our project "stretcher convertible to wheel chair or wheel chair convertible to stretcher" can solve this issue in a better way.
As we are starting through literature review,we will design a recliner mechanism and a lead screw will rotate with the help of motor and the designed mechanism will work.
Then we will place our gear motors to the wheel which will move at a speed of 5 mph to 10 mph.
we will place an ultrasonic sensor which will provide us a automatic braking system in case of obstacle presence.
we will implement our code for gesture control mode to accelerate the wheel chair.
Benefits of the ProjectACCESS TO MORE PLACES:
Electric wheelchairs can be utilized inside or outside, offering steady help for individuals who need them over the course of the day.
Controlled seats likewise offer a tight turning sweep which implies they are great for arranging more modest spaces.
You likewise have opportunity to arrive at statures you may never have thought conceivable in a manual seat. Steep grades are in a flash simpler to get to and the equivalent goes for interesting territory, which might discourage clients from following a specific way.
We offer a progression of electric wheelchairs which are planned with a 16-inch back tire drive framework to offer a smooth ride entrances and slopes.
EFFORTLESS TRANSPORT:
Numerous electric wheelchairs are lightweight making them simple to escape the vehicle.
COST EFFECTIVE:
The main concept for this project is to make cost effective project that can provide affordibility for most of the people/lower class in pakistan.
SOLUTION FOR PANDEMIC SITUATION:
In a pandemic situation as like covid-19 the limited number of beds in every hospital especiallly in pakistan were occupied and had shortage for new incoming patients for the treatment. Due to scarcity of beds patients were forced to lie on the floor.
Technical Details of Final DeliverableFirstly,we will design a recliner with the help of lead screw,we are using lead screw because it is very easy to use.
secondly we will use gear motors because the gear motors are able to work efficiently.these motors will move the wheel chair and are good at load bearing.
Thirdly,we will provide an automatic braking system by using ultra sonic sensor.
Furthermore,we might think of adding different modes to accelerate the wheel chair,Those modes are like gesture control,remote control and voice control modes.
