Project Name: Product Appearance Design of the Handle System of the Main Machine of the ultrasonic Knife (Scheme C)
Cooperation content: design analysis | appearance design | structural design | prototype production | accompanying running assistance
Overall overview of the 1. project
This scheme is the appearance design scheme C of the micro (wedu) ultrasonic scalpel host handle system, which is built by sogo design (sogo), and is a high-end medical device product for surgical scenes. The design takes "sunrise" as the core inspiration and integrates the C- shaped modeling language to achieve a balance between the professionalism of medical products, the sense of science and technology and the humanistic care, while taking into account the practicality of clinical use and brand recognition.
2. Core Design Principles and Design Language
1. Core design concept
The scheme takes **" side C- shaped design language sunrise inspiration button "** as the core design principle:
C- shaped shape: the C- shaped contour running through the side of the fuselage not only shapes a smooth visual language, but also optimizes the structural mechanics and the man-machine experience of holding/handling;
Sunrise inspiration: The shape of the front power button is extracted from the shape of the sunrise at sea level, implying "thriving", injecting temperature and brand vision into the cold medical equipment, and strengthening the memory point of the design.
2. Overall design language
Modeling language: using oblique integrated body, the front operation area is inclined backward, which conforms to the operation angle of the doctor in the operating room; The side C- shaped curved surface transition breaks the square and rigid feeling of traditional medical equipment, and has both the sense of science and technology and the sense of softness;
Color language: medical white/silver gray is the main color, with brand-specific * * light blue (interface, key) * * and turquoise atmosphere light belt at the bottom, which not only meets the requirements of cleanliness of medical products, but also strengthens visual recognition through brand color;
Material language: The main body is made of medical grade ABS/aluminum alloy, and the surface is matte sandblasted, taking into account the medical grade requirements of easy cleaning, anti-fouling and disinfection resistance, and at the same time improving the advanced texture of the product.
3. Breakdown of Key Design Details
1. Front operation area design
Layout logic: the golden layout of "interface area-display area-key area" is adopted, which conforms to the sight line and operation line of the doctor's operation:
The left side is the blue handle interface: the shape echoes the C- shaped language, and the blue logo clearly distinguishes the interface functions to avoid misoperation;
The middle is a large-size touch display screen: the black rest screen is integrated with the body, keeping the front simple, and meeting the clear display requirements of surgical parameters;
The bottom is the sunrise power key: the arc contour restores the shape of the sunrise at the sea level, the key is moderately raised, with blue backlight, clear operation feedback, and at the same time becomes the iconic design element of the product;
The turquoise atmosphere light belt at the bottom: runs through the front, which not only plays a visual segmentation role, but also serves as a reminder of the operating status of the equipment (such as standby/work/fault light changes) to enhance the interactive experience.
brand presentation: embedded "wedu micro degree" brand logo at the bottom of the front, and hollowed/embossed brand logo at the top to strengthen brand recognition in multiple dimensions.
2. Side and top design
Side C- shaped details: The side adopts an integrated C- shaped curved surface and is matched with a longitudinal heat dissipation grille, which not only meets the heat dissipation requirements of the equipment, but also strengthens the C- shaped design language through lines, while avoiding dust accumulation, which meets the cleaning requirements of the medical environment;
Top surface design: the top surface is made of chamfered embossed brand logo, with smooth modeling, echoing the overall C- shaped language, without redundant protrusions, which is convenient for cleaning and handling;
Back design: the back of the integrated power interface, switch, heat dissipation mesh and other functional components, the use of concave layout, to maintain the overall simplicity of the body, while complying with the electrical safety specifications of medical equipment.
3. Multi-view detail verification
Front view: the layout of the operation area is clear, the visual center of gravity is centered, in line with the rigor of medical products;
Side view: the C- shaped outline is completely presented, the bevel angle conforms to ergonomics, and the design of the heat dissipation grille takes into account both function and beauty;
Top view: brand logo modeling and front design language unity, smooth body lines;
Three views: the modeling of each perspective is unified, the proportion is coordinated, and the structure logic is clear, which provides a good design basis for the subsequent mass production of mold opening.
4. Ergonomics and Clinical Practical Design
1. Operational Perspective Optimization
The front of the main engine adopts a backward design of about 15 degrees, which perfectly matches the line of sight angle of the doctors standing in the operating room. The screen parameters can be clearly viewed without lowering the head, reducing neck fatigue during long-term surgery, and meeting the ergonomic requirements of clinical use.
2. Operation interaction optimization
Key layout: the power key is located at the bottom of the front, eye-catching, easy to operate, to avoid accidental touch;
Interface design: The handle interface adopts a blue logo and a dumb-proof shape, which is convenient to plug and unplug, while avoiding confusion with other interfaces, and improving the safety of surgical operations;
Cleaning convenience: The whole machine adopts an integrated design without dead corners, and the surface is matte and easy to clean, which meets the needs of high-frequency disinfection in the operating room and reduces the risk of hospital feeling.
3. Handling and installation optimization
Body size and weight: compact shape, side C- shaped curved surface in line with the hand handling of the grip arc, easy for medical personnel to carry and install;
Bottom foot pad: Non-slip rubber foot pad is used to improve the stability of equipment placement and avoid displacement during surgery.
5. Design Highlights and Value Summary
1. Core highlights
Cultural and functional integration: the cultural implication of "sunrise" is deeply combined with product function and modeling, which not only enhances the emotional value of the product, but also strengthens the brand recognition;
Medical-level design specifications: strictly follow the design requirements of medical devices, and fully meet the clinical use standards in terms of material, cleanliness, safety, and man-machine;
Brand design: the whole process into the "wedu micro" brand elements, from logo modeling to color system, to create a unified brand visual language, enhance the market competitiveness of products.
2. Design value
User value: provides clinicians with a more comfortable, safer and more efficient operation experience, and reduces surgical fatigue and operational risks;
Brand value: through the differentiation of the design language, shaping the micro brand high-end, professional, temperature brand image, help products stand out in the market;
Mass production value: the design scheme has reasonable structure and high process feasibility, taking into account the design beauty and mass production cost, which provides a guarantee for the large-scale production of products.
6. Supplementary Notes
In the design process of this scheme, the industry characteristics of medical devices are fully considered:
Meet the safety standards of medical electrical equipment such as YY/T 0708;
Material selection meets the requirements of medical-grade disinfection, alcohol-resistant, chlorine-containing disinfectant and other commonly used disinfection methods;
The modeling design avoids the structure that is easy to accumulate dust and difficult to clean, and meets the requirements of hospital sense control in the operating room. Sogo Design: www.soogot.com
