2
Create device to make surrey accessible to people in wheelchairs Find the most cost-effective solution Device should be simple to use
3
(More specific details in handout) Customer Requirements Minimize additional turning resistance Mount on two different surreys Install/Remove the device quickly No seating modification Cost less than $500
4
Additional Requirements ◦ Minimize: Weight Length Or exclude frame modification ◦ Unloading mechanism (ramp) travels with surrey
5
Rear Mounted Concepts Allow surrey to travel over uneven terrain while preventing failure at device mounting locations (see chalkboard).
7
November ◦ Present design approach ◦ Based on feedback, focus design ◦ Materials Research
8
