Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of backpacks, and in particular to a backpack comfort detection device, system and method. Background Art

[0002] The existing test of backpack carrying pressure mainly uses a single-point pressure pad to measure the single-point pressure of the shoulder strap or back, or a sheet pressure pad to measure the pressure of an area on the back of the backpack, and then calculates the pressure value of each point to analyze the pressure distribution of the shoulder strap and the back. During the backpack pressure test, the wearer is in motion and the position is adjusted according to the user's usage habits. The elasticity, softness and breathability of the shoulder strap can affect the user's comfort. The pressure pad is easy to loosen and move, resulting in inaccurate test data; the layout of the pressure pad is relatively random, and it is difficult to unify the position of the measuring point in two tests, which makes data analysis difficult; in addition, when multiple pressure sensors or pressure pads are used at the same time, the installation is complicated and the data coordination is difficult, which increases the difficulty of the experiment and increases the cost of the experiment. The existing test method cannot directly evaluate the comfort of the backpack, and can only evaluate the backpack carrying comfort based on the experience or subjective judgment of the experimenter. Here, the pressure of the shoulder strap is taken as an indicator to detect the comfort of the schoolbag. For this reason, a backpack comfort detection device and method are proposed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0033] A subject wears the backpack comfort testing device, and according to the subject's appearance characteristics, the distribution positions of multiple pressure sensors are adjusted so that the pressure test area corresponds to the corresponding part of the body;

[0034] B. During the subject's activity, the backpack is gradually loaded;

[0035] C continuously tests and collects the pressure values ​​of the eight zones of the backpack comfort detection device, calculates the peak and average pressure values ​​of each zone, as well as the distribution and change trend, and calculates the ratio of the backpack pressure on the waist and back to the shoulder pressure;

[0036] D According to the pressure ratio of waist and back to shoulder of 4:1 as the evaluation factor of carrying comfort, the data collected by the backpack pressure test system is calculated and analyzed to obtain the backpack comfort evaluation result.

[0037] In this embodiment, according to the analysis of a large number of backpack carrying experimental data, the pressure distribution of the backpack on the shoulders and waist and back is the main factor affecting the carrying comfort. The reasonable distribution of the weight ratio during the weight-bearing process should be 80% on the waist and back, and 20% on the shoulders. The 20% weight on the shoulders should not all fall on the shoulders, but should be distributed on the clavicle or shoulder blades. The backpack pressure comfort evaluation system of the present invention uses the shoulder pressure distribution, the waist and back pressure distribution and the ratio of the backpack pressure on the waist and back to the shoulder pressure as the carrying comfort evaluation factors, and uses the carrying comfort evaluation equation established through a large number of experiments. By processing and analyzing the data collected by the backpack pressure test system, the backpack pressure comfort evaluation system directly gives the backpack comfort evaluation results, as well as the problems and improvement suggestions of the backpack design.

[0038] According to the target user characteristics of the backpack, subjects who meet the requirements are selected. The subjects put on the backpack pressure test system. According to the backpack style and the appearance characteristics of the subjects, the pressure test system is adjusted to make the pressure test area correspond to the corresponding part of the body. The subjects carry the loaded backpack and carry out activities. The test collects the pressure values ​​of the 8 zones of the "pressure vest". The pressure values ​​are collected once every minute for 20 minutes continuously or when the measured values ​​are stable. The measured values ​​are transmitted to the backpack pressure comfort evaluation system in the computer via Bluetooth, and the measured values ​​of the 8 zones are analyzed. The peak and average pressure values ​​of each zone are calculated, as well as the distribution and change trend. The ratio of the backpack's back pressure to the shoulder pressure is calculated. The data collected by the backpack pressure test system are calculated and analyzed using the carrying comfort evaluation equation to obtain the backpack comfort evaluation results, as well as the problems and improvement suggestions in the backpack design.

[0040] An adjusting mechanism is connected to the mounting frame 5, and the adjusting mechanism includes a limiting rod 13 slidably connected to the inside of the mounting frame 5, a connecting cavity 14 is provided inside the mounting frame 5, an outer wall of the limiting rod 13 is fixedly sleeved with a fixing ring 15 located inside the connecting cavity 14, and an outer wall of the limiting rod 13 is sleeved with a spring 17, and both ends of the spring 17 are respectively fixedly connected to the fixing ring 15 and the connecting cavity 14, a plurality of adjusting ports 12 corresponding to the limiting rod 13 are provided on the side of the connecting block 16, and a pull ring is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting rod 13 away from the adjusting port 12, and the height of the pressure sensor 4 can be freely adjusted through the cooperation between the adjusting mechanisms to correspond to the measurement of different positions of the detection strap 6, and the average value of multiple measurements is taken to ensure the authenticity of the measurement results.

[0041] In the present invention, the connecting block 16 at the bottom of the pressure sensor 4 is installed in the mounting groove 11, and then the backpack strap 6 to be detected is placed on the side of the mounting rod 3, and a plurality of elastic bands 8 are passed around the strap 6 to be detected, so that the round hair layer and the curly hair layer on the elastic band 8 are adhered to each other, and the strap 6 is stably installed on the side of the mounting rod 3, and the switch of the pressure sensor 4 is turned on, so that the output end of the pressure sensor 4 is set on the strap and the pressure value of each position is recorded, and the detection position of the pressure sensor 4 on the strap 6 can be adjusted to record the pressure value again and record the average value. Adjustment process: pull the limit rod 13 through the pull ring to disengage the limit rod 13 from the adjustment port 12, and then move the connecting block 16 to control the height of the pressure sensor 4. After the pressure sensor 4 moves to the indicated position, the limit rod 13 is inserted into the corresponding adjustment port 12 to limit the height of the pressure sensor 4.

[0042] The same method is used to continue testing other backpack straps 6, and the bearing capacity of different positions of multiple backpack straps 6 is obtained to measure the comfort of different backpacks. When used specifically, it can be selected according to needs.

[0047] (2) The present invention can directly give the backpack comfort evaluation result, while the existing backpack pressure testing technology cannot directly evaluate the comfort of the backpack and can only evaluate the backpack carrying comfort based on the experience or subjective judgment of the experimenter. The backpack pressure comfort evaluation system of the present invention uses shoulder pressure distribution, chest pressure distribution, waist and back pressure distribution and the ratio of the backpack pressure on the waist and back to the shoulder pressure as the evaluation factors for carrying comfort, and uses the carrying comfort evaluation equation established through a large number of experiments.
