Abstract

Children who are suffering from disabilities experience learning difficulties and need some extra care. Cerebral palsy (CP) is classified as one of the physical disabilities that occur among children. Children with physical disabilities most likely have difficulties in moving from one place to another. Although there are many aid tools that available in Malaysia to help them in their daily life, children with physical disabilities still have problem in moving around freely like other normal children. Therefore, the purpose of this project is introducing and develop an ergonomic walking chair to help them performing their daily life much easier. This new mechanism of walking chair also help them in rehabilitation for their own good. The process of this project started with an observation at Pusat Pemulihan Dalam Komuniti (PDK) to look closely for their difficulties in their daily life. House of Quality been produced to convert the customer requirement into engineering characteristics based on the observation. Then, Morphological Chart been made to translate it into some conceptual designs. In addition, final design was selected among the conceptual designs using Weighted Decision Matric. After that, 3D model of the final design was produced by using Solidworks 2016. Analysis and simulation been carried out to make sure the product design is safe to be use. The simulation and stress analysis has been running in the software to determine the safety of factor of the product. This mechanism of the product is far the most convenient for children with physical disabilities in Malaysia to use for their daily task and low maintenance.
