Abstract

In recent years, the aging of our country has intensified, and the needs of the elderly have been paid more and more attention. In order to meet the travel needs of the elderly, the old-age walking vehicle came into being. However, there are many problems with the old-age walking vehicle on the market. The paper started from the angle of human body size and psychological and behavioral characteristics of the elderly, based on the design concepts of humanization, emotional design and green design, then uses Solidworks software to design the ring steering wheel structure, and uses ANSYS finite element analysis to carry out mechanical analysis and modal analysis of the ring wheel mechanism of the elderly generation walker. The results show that the designed indicators meet the requirements of the work.
