目的 针对当前适老化可穿戴下肢助行产品缺乏实际需求支撑、难以精准匹配老年用户核心诉求的问题,结合人口老龄化背景下老年群体对可穿戴助行产品的迫切需求,开展适老化可穿戴下肢助行产品设计研究。方法 以老年助行产品用户为调研对象,运用统计学方法,将探索性因子分析(EFA)、验证性因子分析(CFA)与结构方程模型(SEM)递进融合,提取并验证适老化可穿戴下肢助行产品设计的4个前因维度与一个结果维度,明确各前因维度对用户满意度的影响程度。结果 基于权重优先级,完成适老化可穿戴下肢助行产品方案设计,涵盖辅助行走等核心功能,优化材质、尺寸与人机适配细节,实现设计方案与老年用户需求的精准对接。结论 EFA-CFA-SEM方法可为适老化可穿戴下肢助行产品设计提供科学的量化支撑,有效提升产品设计的针对性与合理性,研究成果可为同类适老化产品的精准设计提供参考与借鉴。
Abstract
To address the problems that the current design of aging-adaptable wearable lower limb walking assistance products lacks support from actual demands and is difficult to accurately match the core demands of elderly users, combined with the urgent needs of the elderly group for wearable walking assistance products under the background of population aging, the work aims to study the design of aging-adaptable wearable lower limb walking assistance products. With elderly users of walking assistance products as the research objects, statistical methods were adopted to integrate EFA, CFA and SEM progressively. The four antecedent dimensions and one outcome dimension of aging-adaptable wearable lower limb walking assistance product design were extracted and verified, and the influence degree of each antecedent dimension on user satisfaction was determined. According to the weight priority, the design scheme of aging-adaptable wearable lower limb walking assistance products was completed, including core functions such as walking assistance. The materials, dimensions and human-computer adaptation details were optimized to realize the accurate matching between the design scheme and the demands of elderly users. The EFA-CFA-SEM method can provide scientific quantitative support for the design of aging-adaptable wearable lower limb walking assistance products and effectively improve the pertinence and rationality of product design. The research results can provide reference for the precise design of similar aging-adaptable products.
