Diseño y simulación de plataforma de elevación para personas con movilidad reducida en silla de ruedas a un vehículo tipo van

Abstract

The present tecnological proposal entitled “Design of a lifting platform for people with reduced mobility in a wheelchair to a Van Vehicle”, is intended for the technological and social field. Looking for an alternative that can be implemented in the future in different places of the Metropolitan District of Quito as an inclusive transportation for this vulnerable group. For its design, different equipment was analyzed that can be easily imported from the foreign market, since in the country it has not been posible to show as such, in adittion, taking different requirements for its design were taken from the international standars applied to this type of elevators ISO 9386, and also, using as a guide requirements set by Ecuadorian standards INEN. The different parts and elements that are part of the equipment were designed in a way that their construction is simple in mechanical workshops, with cuts and bends of metal plates, welds and drilling. Likewise, the electrical control was designed from modules that are easy to connect and acquire in the Ecuadorian Market. Statics simulations performed in Solidworks Software are presented graphically for a better understanding of design results. Fort he simulation of the movement, a library for Labview called SoftMotion has been implemented, wich allows the interconnection between both softwares, simulating the control of the equipment by means of a graphic interface of easy control.
