Diseño y construcción de un prototipo Bipedestador automático para personas con diversidad funcional en sus extremidades inferiores

Abstract

In the present degree work, the design and construction of an automatic stander prototype for people with functional difficulties in their lower extremities is carried out, this mechanism is built with the purpose of allowing this group of people within society to develop a bipedal position without having to ask for help, with this, it is also sought to provide support towards the different health problems that can be caused by sitting all the time. To achieve the bipedal position, it will be done with a smooth movement avoiding complications for the user, this movement will be executed by means of a linear actuator such as an electric cylinder, with this type of actuator the movement of the bipedal position can be carried out in the same way. In this way, it is possible to return to the initial position, that is to say, to the position where the user remains seated. On the other hand, the user will be able to move from one place to another using scooter technology since the design of the standing chair will be implemented in an electric scooter, thus avoiding fatigue and the effort that the user makes pushing a wheelchair. with his arms. In addition to this, there will be a mobile application which will allow the standing and sitting positions to be achieved in a time of 19 seconds for both cases.
