Design and Research on Human-machine Comfort of Baby Carriage for the Elderly with Grandchildren

Abstract

With the development of aging society, more and more elderly people choose to take care of their grandchildren after retirement. Therefore, how to make these people take better care of their grandchildren, especially when using baby carriages, has become an urgent problem to be solved. This study focuses on the ergonomic design of comfort for the elderly with grandchildren when using strollers, and explores and understands the physiological and psychological needs of the elderly when using strollers. Through in-depth interviews, questionnaires and field observations, a detailed needs analysis of the target user groups was conducted. At the same time, combined with the physiological characteristics of the elderly, the paper puts forward some design suggestions and evaluation indicators, and proves a more comfortable and humanized baby carriage design through practice.
