Rapporten behandlar utvecklingsarbetet av ett nytt gåbord i samarbete med Skaraborgs sjukhus. Målet med arbetet var delvis att lokalisera och lösa de problem som fanns med det befintliga gåbordet. Samt utöver detta utveckla och göra bordet ergonomiskt anpassat för både vårdare och patient. Arbetet är uppdelat i bakgrund, förstudie, idégenerering, konceptutveckling och till sist ett resultat. I förstudien har de olika gåbord som finns på marknaden studerats och vilka problem det finns med dessa genom intervjuer med berörda parter. Genom en innehållsrik kravspecifikation och riktlinjer från Svensk standard (ISO-11199, 2005) har arbetet haft tydliga ramar för den utvecklande processen. Med hjälp av ett antal kreativitetsmetoder har ett stort antal lösningar hittats som efter en utvärdering gallrats till ett fåtal kvarvarande. Efter det följande utvecklingsarbetet har dessa idéer förbättrats till ett slutgiltigt koncept, en produkt som möter de krav som satts upp. / This report deals with the development of a new walking table in cooperation with the hospitals in Skaraborg. The goal was partally to locate and solve the problems that existed with the walking aid, and with a usability outlook develop the table to suit both nurses and patients. The work is divided into a literature study, idea generation, concept development and finally a result part. In the preliminary study, the group looked at various walking tables available on the market today and what problems there are with them through interviews. Through a comprehensive specification of requirements and guidelines from the Swedish standard association, the work could go on to the developing process. With the help of some different creativity techniques, a large number of solutions where found, and after evaluating these solutions a smaller amount of concepts could be developed futher. After improvement of these ideas, the project resulted in a product that met the requirements set by the user and project team.

This is a product development project which has developed a prototype in order to facilitate for people using mobility devices when they want to buy a larger quantity of groceries. The prototype is a shopping cart composed with the upper part of a walker.Today there are many different types of mobility devices used by elderly and people with physical impairment. According to Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap (MSB) are accidental falls the most common cause of accidents in Sweden.This project has been using Computer Aided Design (CAD) as a tool to create a visual image of the prototype. The advantage of this is to modify the functionality and performance of the prototype on the computer before the modification takes place in the real model. Using human manikins, the CAD model was rendered in natural surroundings to get as true a picture as possible. The prototype is adjustable, why various anthropometric measurements were used to fit to the individual, but not less than the 40th percentile for women, corresponding to a height of 161 cm.The project has resulted in a CAD model and a functional prototype. The prototype has been tested by a user group at Alla Hjärtans Hus (AHH) and received positive feedback. The prototype also received constructive criticism from users, so suggestions can be applied. Suggestions for further development of the prototype have been developed. The prototype needs to be modified and components must be added before it can be used in grocery retailers.
