Resumo(s)
The physical wear of health professionals arises mainly from the movement
of people with reduced mobility, transport of stretchers, hospital beds and
hospital carts. There is a lack of equipment that helps these professionals
to move patients in hospital beds or stretchers. This work aims to design
an equipment that removes health professionals’ function of moving
patients from beds to stretchers, being able to move patients around the
hospital in a bed. Added to this challenge was the diversification of models
of hospital beds, making it necessary for the equipment to adapt to all
beds. The design process included several finite element method analyses
to validate the structure, and also a structural optimization, to reduce costs
and reduce the weight of the equipment. This work successfully designed
an optimized automated solution that can improve working conditions in
the healthcare industry.
