Abstract

This paper shows the mechanical design of a mechatronic system focused on providing assistance to older adults with motor disabilities. The main objective is to keep these people standing on their lower extremities, facilitating their mobility and at the same time providing greater support to their body structure. The mechanical design of the permanent station was developed using CAD (Computer Aided Drawing) software, including concept design, structural analysis and selection of mechanical actuators; elements designed for this mechatronic system. In addition, it shows the study to ensure ergonomics and safety for users using standards UNE-EN ISO 10535-2006, UNE-EN IEC 60601-1-2010 and EN 13480-2-2002 with the compliance of a structural safety factor through the software CAE (computer-assisted engineering), as well as the adaptability of the design of the system to the various anthropometric measures of the world demographic environment.
