DESIGN IMPROVISATION AND FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF LIFT FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITY USING HYDRAULIC POWERED MOVEMENT SYSTEMS
Abstract
A lift is really helpful for disabled people but sometimes there not enough room for a wheelchair. The needs for public access for this facility is crucial. To ease the availability of lift for the disabled especially in a wheelchair comes the lift with hydraulic powered movement systems. The research activity is conducted at T.M.C Industrial Public Co., Ltd. As one of the leading Industry in Thailand and ASEAN, T.M.C is suppliers and manufacturers of hydraulic based technology and other types of machinery. This research is focused on the hydraulic systems development for the lift. A suitable design for the structure and the systems is essential to the development of this research. The goal of this research is creating the design aspect for the lift that suits the specifications so that the outcome is a design with the improvement that can be manufactured in T.M.C. Finally, Finite Element Analysis is used to determine whether the design is within the safety factor boundaries for the structure and in the critical parts of the lift assembly.
