This has resulted in a phenomenon in which the elderly are forced to make insufficient choices and inappropriate use. As a result of product safety accident analysis, it can be seen that the accident rate of users aged 60 years or older is much higher than that of users younger than 60 years old. As a result of detailed analysis, the most common place was home with 57.2%, followed by public administration and service areas with 14.7% and roads with 9.8%. And by accident type, falls, falls, and slips accounted for 55.3%, collisions and shocks accounted for 7.5%, cuts or tears from objects accounted for 4.5%, and crushing and pinching accounted for 4.0%. In addition, by accident part, 26.4% of the head and face, 24% of the legs and feet, 18.1% of the arms and hands, and 14.7% of the neck, stomach, back, and waist were surveyed (Elderly Safety Status, Consumer Times). , 4-5, October 2007). In particular, as can be seen from the types of accidents involving the elderly, more than half of accidents are related to falls. One of the most representative elderly-friendly products that can prevent falls is the rollator. Until recently, various functionalities have been added to rollators, and various products with improved usability and durability have appeared. Research and development such as a gait state estimation method and apparatus for walking aids of Patent Registration No. 1908176, a stroller rollator of US Patent Registration No. 9974708, and a foldable rollator of US Patent Registration No. 9839571 have been steadily conducted.

However, a design considering ergonomic aspects including the user's body size has not yet been made. The reason for this is that the marketability of walking aids is still poor, and most of the walking aids sold in Korea are imported from China. because it did Most of the conventional technologies are technologies for walking vehicles emphasizing specific functionality, and there is a lack of research and development in how to design a walking vehicle suitable for the user's body size, which is the most important factor in walking vehicles. In reality, it is very difficult to purchase a walking vehicle optimized for dimensions or conditions.

The rollator dimension measurement application may display a plurality of rollator models and product information of each rollator model.

The rollator size measuring application may receive a selection of one of a plurality of displayed rollator models, that is, receive product model selection information.

- Determining whether non-changeable item information exists (S120)

The application for measuring the size of the rollator may determine whether there is item information whose size cannot be changed in the selected rollator model.

Information on items whose dimensions cannot be changed may be set in advance for each product model.

Information on items whose dimensions cannot be changed may be information provided from the manufacturer of each product model.

Items whose dimensions cannot be changed may be at least one of various items related to the positional relationship of the components constituting the rollator model, such as the rollator model's height item, left and right width items, front and rear width items, and handle angle items. there is.

For example, in some rollator models, changes in the positional relationship of components may be limited according to various factors, such as stability of support of a mounted storage space, durability of a frame, and design factors. In some embodiments, depending on various reasons, such as a manufacturer's policy, a specific rollator model cannot be customized and may be manufactured only within various predetermined sizes.

For example, if the dimensions of the left and right widths of the selected rollator model cannot be changed, the left and right width items are items whose dimensions cannot be changed.

- Step of matching the configuration of changeable dimensions of the non-changeable item information and the rollator dimension measuring device (S130)

When the selected rollator model has an unchangeable item, the rollator size measurement application may match the unchangeable item information with the size change configuration of the rollator size measuring device 10.

For example, if the unchangeable item of the selected rollator model is the left and right width items, the application for measuring the rollator dimensions changes the dimensions that determine the left and right width of the rollator model and the left and right width of the rollator size measuring device 10. By matching the horizontal length adjusting unit 580, which is a configuration, with each other, it is possible to generate matching information that cannot be changed in size .

As another example, when the unchangeable item of the selected rollator model is a height item, the application for measuring the rollator size is a handle that is a dimension change component that determines the height item information of the rollator model and the height of the rollator size measuring device 10. The height adjusting unit 680, the frame angle adjusting unit 700, and the frame height adjusting unit 800 may be matched to each other.

- Matching the changeable item information and the dimension change configuration of the rollator dimension measuring device (S140)

The rollator size measurement application may generate size changeable matching information by matching the changeable item information of the selected rollator model with the size change configuration of the rollator size measuring device 10 .

For example, when the changeable item of the selected rollator model is a height item, the application for measuring the rollator size is a dimension change component that determines the height item information of the rollator model and the height of the rollator size measuring device 10. The handle height adjusting unit 680, the frame angle adjusting unit 700, and the frame height adjusting unit 800 may be matched to each other to generate dimension changeable matching information.

As another example, if the changeable items of the selected rollator model are left and right width and front and rear width items, the application for measuring rollator dimensions is the left and right width and front and rear width item information of the rollator model and the left and right width of the rollator dimension measuring device 10 And it is possible to generate dimension changeable matching information by matching the horizontal length adjusting unit 580 and the frame angle adjusting unit 700, which are dimension changing components that determine the front and rear widths, with each other.

As another example, when the changeable item of the selected rollator model is a handle height item, the application for measuring rollator dimensions determines the handle height item information of the rollator model and the handle height of the rollator size measuring device 10. It is possible to generate dimension changeable matching information by matching the handle height adjusting unit 680, which is a changeable configuration, with each other.

- Determining whether change restriction information of changeable items exists (S150)

The application for measuring the size of the rollator may determine whether there is an item having change restriction information of the size among changeable items of the selected rollator model.

For example, when the changeable item of the selected rollator model is height and the change range of the height is from a minimum of 1 m to a maximum of 1.5 m, the corresponding height range may be change limiting information. As another example, when the changeable item of the selected rollator model is the left and right width, and the change range of the left and right width is from a minimum of 0.4 m to a maximum of 1 m, the range of the corresponding left and right width may be change limiting information.

In addition, when the unchangeable item of the selected rollator model is a height item and the changeable item is a front and rear width item, the height item includes a handle height adjustment unit that is a dimension change configuration that determines the height of the rollator size measuring device 10 ( 680), the frame angle adjusting unit 700, and the frame height adjusting unit 800 may be matched. In addition, the frame angle adjusting unit 700, which is a dimension changing configuration for determining the height of the rollator size measuring device 10, may be matched to the front and rear width items. In this case, the frame angle adjusting unit 700 corresponds to a mixed dimension change configuration that determines not only the height of the rollator dimension measuring device 10 but also the front and rear widths.

The rollator dimension measurement application can set items whose dimensions cannot be changed in the mixed dimension change configuration as change restriction information, and according to the above example, the frame angle adjusting unit 700, which is a mixed dimension change configuration, has a change in the height item. It can be limited information.

- Setting the size change range of the rollator size measuring device (S160)

If the rollator dimension measurement application determines that change restriction information exists in the selected rollator model, the rollator dimension measurement device 10 sets the dimension change range of the dimension change configuration based on the change restriction information in the rollator model. can

For example, if the changeable item of the selected rollator model is the left and right width, and the change range of the left and right width is from a minimum of 0.4m to a maximum of 1m, the application for measuring the dimensions of the rollator corresponds to the change range of the left and right width of the selected rollator model. Based on this, it is possible to set the length adjustment range of the horizontal frame 500 by the horizontal length adjusting unit 580 .

- Calculation of correction amount of items that cannot be changed in mixed dimension change configuration (S170)

In addition, in the application for measuring rollator dimensions, when the unchangeable item of the selected rollator model is the height item and the changeable item is the front and rear width item, the frame angle adjusting unit 700 corresponds to a mixed dimension change configuration. And, in the frame angle adjusting unit 700, the height item corresponds to a subordinate item of the front and rear width items. That is, the frame angle adjusting unit 700 is a component for adjusting the front and rear width of the rollator size measuring device 10, and the overall height of the rollator size measuring device 10 is dependently changed according to the adjustment of the front and rear width.

In this case, the application for measuring the size of the rollator may determine whether there is a correction item for correcting the dependent item. Correction items for correcting dependent items here may be a height item of a steering wheel or a height item between the wheel unit 100 and a frame located on top of the wheel unit 100 .

The rollator dimension measurement application may set the height item as change limiting information when an immutable item matched to the mixed dimension change configuration is a dependent item and a correction item for correcting the dependent item exists. Therefore, in the rollator dimension measurement application, when the front and rear widths of the rollator dimension measuring device 10 are changed by the frame angle adjusting unit 700, the height of the rollator dimension measuring device 10 changed accordingly is changed to the original position. The amount of change in the front and rear width of the rollator size measuring device 10 so that the height of the rollator size measuring device 10 can be changed by at least one of the handle height adjusting unit 680 and the frame height adjusting unit 800. An unchangeable item correction amount, which is information on a change in height of the contrast rollator size measurement device 10, can be calculated.

As another example, in the application for measuring rollator dimensions, when the non-changeable items of the selected rollator model are front and rear width items and the changeable items are height items, the frame angle adjusting unit 700 corresponds to a mixed size change configuration. And, in the frame angle adjusting unit 700, the front and rear width items correspond to independent items of the height items. That is, the frame angle adjusting unit 700 is a component for adjusting the front and rear width of the rollator size measuring device 10, and the front and rear width of the rollator size measuring device 10 according to the driving of the frame angle adjusting unit 700. Without a change, the overall height of the rollator dimensioning device 10 will not change. In this case, the application for measuring the size of the rollator may determine whether there is a correction item for correcting the independent item. There is no correction item for correcting the independent item here. Accordingly, the application for measuring the dimensions of the rollator may exclude the mixed dimension change configuration from the dimension changeable matching information when the independent item is an unchangeable item in the mixed dimension change configuration. In some embodiments, the rollator dimension measurement application may exclude the mixed dimension change configuration from the dimension changeable matching information when the subordinate item in the mixed dimension change configuration is an unchangeable item. In some embodiments, the rollator dimension measuring application may exclude the mixed dimension change configuration from the dimension changeable matching information when there is no correction item for correcting the unchangeable item in the mixed dimension change configuration.

- Step of displaying dimension change composition and grouping information (S180)

Referring further to FIG. 14, the rollator dimension measurement application displays a 3D model (3m) of the rollator dimension measurement device 10, and grouping with dimension change configuration information (aci) on the 3D model (3m). Information (gr) can be displayed.

For example, if the changeable items of the selected rollator model are the overall height, handle height, front and rear width, and left and right width items and the unchangeable items are the handle angle items, the application for measuring the rollator dimensions is 3 of the dimension measuring device 10 In the dimensional model (3m), dimension change configuration information (aci ) can be displayed.

In addition, the rollator size measurement application may display grouping information (gr) in which configurations for adjusting common attribute dimensions are grouped.

The handle height adjusting unit 680, the frame angle adjusting unit 700, and the frame height adjusting unit 800 are configured to adjust a common attribute dimension of height, and they may be grouped in a first group (gr1). In addition, each of the first horizontal frame 510 and the second horizontal frame 520 is configured to adjust a common attribute dimension of left and right width, and they may be grouped in a second group (gr2).

In addition, the rollator dimension measurement application may display the selected rollator model (crm).

- Dimension setting step through rollator dimension measuring device (S190)

In various embodiments, the application for measuring rollator dimensions is matched with the dimensions of the rollator dimension measuring device 10 changeable through the selected dimension change configuration information in response to selection of any one of the dimension change configuration information (aci). By displaying the dimension change guide information (mcl) of the selected rollator model on the selected rollator model (crm), information on the dimensions that are actually changed in the selected rollator model is provided through the dimension change configuration information (aci) selected by the manager or the user. can provide information.

Referring to FIG. 15 , for example, when changeable items of the selected rollator model are overall height, handle height, front and rear width, and left and right width items and unchangeable items are handle angle items, a handle height adjusting unit 680, Dimension change configuration information (aci) is displayed on an area corresponding to the frame angle adjusting unit 700 and the frame height adjusting unit 800, and they are first grouped (gr1). In addition, the handle height adjusting unit 680 and the frame height adjusting unit 800 correspond to one item as a height item to be changed, but in the frame angle adjusting unit 700, the items to be changed are a front and rear width adjustment item and a height adjustment item. becomes plural with

According to the illustrated example, since the size change configuration information aci corresponding to the frame angle adjuster 700 is selected, a plurality of change target items are displayed. The rollator size measurement application may provide a user interface as exemplarily shown in FIG. 16 for setting a selected size in response to selection of any one of a plurality of displayed change target items.

Referring to FIG. 16, since the manager or the user has selected the front and rear width adjustment items as the change target item, the rollator size measurement application is a 3D model of one configuration of the rollator size measurement device 10 for the selected size change configuration. (p3m) may be displayed, and position change guide information gi may be displayed so that each angle of the main frame 400 and the rear wheel frame 300 may be adjusted on the 3D model p3m.

The application for measuring the dimensions of the rollator may change angles of the main frame 400 and the rear wheel frame 300 based on a touch input and a moving direction of the touch input. In addition, the application for measuring the dimensions of the rollator is the handle height adjusting unit 680 and the frame height corresponding to the correction item in order to correct the height item that changes according to the change in the angle of each of the main frame 400 and the rear wheel frame 300. A correction item 3D model cp3m for at least one of the control units 800 may be displayed. In addition, the application for measuring the dimensions of the rollator is correction item 3 in order to compensate for the height that changes depending on the change in angle of each of the main frame 400 and the rear wheel frame 300 based on the aforementioned non-changeable item correction amount calculation information. The height of the dimensional model (cp3m) can be changed and the amount of correction according to the change can be displayed.
