Project Summary 97% MATCHING BLOCK 1/6 https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/cp/features/cerebra ... Cerebral palsy is a group of disorders that affect a person’s ability to move and maintain balance and posture. This project proposed a wheelchair for Cerebral Palsy that was able to be folded. Wheelchairs nowadays were too bulky in design and some of the parts were not covered. This could lead to the wheelchair not being easily put into a small car for travel purposes. The objective for this project is to analyze a wheelchair that can reduce the bulkiness and be able to be folded easily into a smaller version of it. The consumer will be able to bring it everywhere due to its small size and lightweight. On the other hand, it helps the patient to be more independent when moving around in their wheelchair even with the company of their family members and the guardians. The wheelchair will be designed through the Solidworks Software. At the end of this project, there will be a wheelchair created in a standard mode and easily folded into the ergonomics folding mode. 2. Introduction/Background 90% Arve_IntroBackgroundTheoryAims_TilKI_0109.doc (D4291518) MATCHING BLOCK 2/6 Cerebral palsy (CP) describes a group of permanent disorders of movement and posture, causing activity limitation, that are attributed to nonprogressive disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal or immature brain. Cerebral Palsy is the most common motor disability in childhood. It is caused by the 87% MATCHING BLOCK 3/6 https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/cp/facts.html abnormal brain development or damage to the developing brain that affects a person’s ability to control their muscles. The brain damage that happened during the birth or the abnormal development can be related to the Cerebral Palsy and be called congenital Cerebral Palsy. 57% MATCHING BLOCK 4/6 https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/cp/facts.html The symptoms could be different from person to person. A person with severe symptoms might need to use special equipment or devices to be able to walk and move around. In another case, a person could need the special equipment for lifetime usage since they might not be able to walk anymore. It is so important to determine how the assistance equipment will be able to function optimally on a daily basis for long-term management. Assistive devices such as wheelchairs play an important part in the management of persons who have Cerebral Palsy. Nowadays, there are so many types of wheelchairs for Cerebral Palsy. It requires the person who is using it to push the large rear wheel to make it move. Typically, these types of wheelchair are chosen because of its ease of folding and affordability. Plus, it is a good option for children who are in the process of learning to walk alone and at the same time need additional assistance. 2.1 Literature review Children with Cerebral Palsy have limitations to control the muscle work that causes posture that can slow the process of increasing the ability of the patient and can cause long-term effects such as bone disease [1]. 2/5 100% MATCHING BLOCK 5/6 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4 ... Independent mobility for disabled people and provision of assistive mobility technology (such as wheelchairs) to facilitate this is considered a human right, which calls for all countries to ensure that disabled people are able to access essential assistive mobility technology to promote mobility and independence [2]. Cerebral Palsy with a heavy phase aspect still requires supervision of the pelvis and hips including the addition of a belt to work optimally [3]. Each disabled person who is able to access essential assistive 95% MATCHING BLOCK 6/6 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4 ... mobility impairment has different needs in terms of assistive mobility technology and seating including consideration of posture, pelvic support and head/neck support. For instance, children with cerebral palsy have the highest demand for specialized seating [4]. 2.2 Problem statement and objectives Cerebral Palsy’s patients cannot move or walk on their own due to the lack of ability to control the muscles. Various types of wheelchairs have been created until today. One of them is a foldable manual wheelchair. It helps the patient to move around on their own. Some of the wheelchairs do not prioritize the safety features and condition of the wheelchairs. For example, at every side and edges there are noticeably uncovered parts. Those parts potentially lead to the skin scratches and bleeding. It could be dangerous for them. Next, the size and design of the wheelchairs when folded looks bulky. It could be a problem to fit into a small car and for travel usage. Even Though, there is already a wheelchair that could fold into a smaller unit but it leaves unsafe parts on the wheelchairs. A change of the design and specifications will be created to make the wheelchairs can be folded into smaller and safer versions of the wheelchairs. This will help most consumers to easily fold the wheelchair and friendly use for travel purposes including the safety features in each part of the wheelchairs. Objectives of the project: 1. To design a lightweight wheelchair for cerebral palsy’s patients by using the Solidworks Software. 2. To analyze a wheelchair that can reduce the bulkiness and able to be folded easily into a smaller version of it. 3. To fabricate a customized wheelchair specially for cerebral palsy children. 2.3 Scope and limitation of the project The scope and limitation of this project is the designing only using the Solidworks Software. Solidworks was chosen because it can perform better when it comes to product design and machinery when compared to Catia. Next, Cerebral Palsy has a different age group of people. For this project, the age of the children from the age of 9 years old until 12 years old. 3. Methodology As for the initial, research of the definition for any terms and phrases that are related to this area of studies has been carried out through the internet. After the topic research, some problems have been identified based on the design of the wheelchair nowadays. Next, web searching has been done for the research article, e-books and journal about wheelchair for cerebral palsy. All of the information about how the wheelchair will be functioning based on Cerebral Palsy’s patient needs has been gathered including the product specification of the wheelchair that is suitable for the target group of patients. In order to choose the best ergonomics design, the process proceeded with the conceptual design by creating an initial design through Shapr3d applications. After that, product designing and development has been carried out by using the Solidworks Software. The stress has been tested to check the breaking point of the wheelchair design analysis by using the Solidworks simulation. Reverse back to the conceptual design to change the dimension and design of some of the parts, if the analysis does not work out. Last but not least, all of the information and the output of the result has been inserted into the final documentation. Figure 1.
