P14042: Una-Crutch Right Move, Right Place, Right Time Detailed Design Review Ana Allen Joanna Dzionara-Norsen Beverly Liriano Dan Sawicki
Pros: • Lightweight • Easy to manufacture • Sliding button connective mechanism • Cons: • Design resembles standard axilla crutch Crutch A Sliding button
Pros: • Aesthetically different from standard axilla crutch • Pads tested during user feedback • Cons: • Complicated to connect • Hard to Manufacture Crutch B
2 1 The Six Key Components of the Una-Crutch 5 6 3 4
1 Shaft Static FEA • Assume and no friction. • Material: 1060 Al Alloy • YS = 27.6 MPA • Load at Point 1, P=150lb due to E.R. #2. • Constraints: • Fixed at Point 2 • Roller at Point 1 1 2
Shaft Von Mises Stresses Max stress < YS, Thus no failure.
Axilla Pad Frame Characteristics Magnets TBD Analysis to be completed by Gate Review
Axilla Pad Frame Static FEA • Assume and no friction. • Material: Nylon 6/10. • YS = 139 MPA • Distributed load of P=300 lb split across surface 1 due to E.R. #2. • Constraints: • Fixed at Holes 2 and 3. 1 2 3
Axilla Pad Frame Von Mises Stresses Max stress < YS, Thus no failure.
Adjustment Shaft Static FEA 2 1 • Assume and no friction. • Material: Al 1060. • YS = 27 MPA • Distributed load of P=300 lb at hole 1 due to E.R. #2. • Constraints: • Roller at Surface 2. • Fixed at Surface 3. 3
Adjustment Shaft Von Mises Stresses Max stress < YS, Thus no failure.
Tip Characteristics Note: FEA Analysis neglected for Tip since part rests on Adjustment Shaft
Handle Static FEA • Assume and no friction. • Material: Nylon 6/10. • YS = 139 MPA • Distributed load of P=300 lb along Surface 1 due to E.R. #2. • Constraints: • Fixed at Shaft Surface 2. • Roller at Shaft Surface 3. 2 1 3
Handle Von Mises Stresses Max stress < YS, Thus no failure.
Base Connection Analyses 3 3a • Material: Nylon 6/10. • YS = 139 MPA • Constraints location 1,1a, and 2 are fixed • Load of 300lb were places locations 3 and 3a 1 1a 2
Base Connection Von Mises Stresses Max stress < YS, Thus no failure.
Buckling • Components and Materials: • Shafts: Aluminum • Base Connection: Nylon 6/10 • Adjustment Shaft: Aluminum • Assumptions: • Half round cross-section and half round hollow cross-section • Pin-pin • Use Euler formula:
Buckling Results • For no buckling to occur, load applied must be less than the critical load • Shafts: • Base Connection: • Adjustment Shaft:
