About Swisbaby Vægtreducerende Skoletaske

Swisbaby er en skoletaske designet til teenagere i alderen 10 til 15 år. Rygsækken kombinerer et sikkerhedslyssystem med et vægtstøttesystem. En lodret LED-bjælke foran og reflekterende striber på begge sider gør bæreren synlig på afstand af 100 meter. Elastiske ophængsstropper fordeler belastningen jævnt over begge skuldre. Rygpuden anvender zoneopdelt støtte og en udhulet rygsøjlekanal, så rygsøjlen forbliver fri til at bevare sin naturlige kurve. Yderskallen og foret er fremstillet af polyester med en vandafvisende belægning.

Unique Properties
SWISBABY Weight Loss Spine Support Schoolbag is a backpack designed for teenagers aged 10-15. Compared with other similar backpacks, it is designed with excellent safety and weight loss support system. The vertical LED bar on the front side and reflective straps on both sides are use cooperatively to make the it visible even from a distance 100 m. Dynamic suspension straps spread the weight loading on both shoulders. The back cushion features a zoned support and a hollow spine support design to evenly unloading, so that the spines of teenagers are protected.

Production Technology
The exterior part of the backpack is crafted from polyester with a water-resistant coating to provide waterproofing feature. The lining is made of polyester, also with a waterproof coating. The high elastic suspension belt is constructed from high elastic fibers that are woven and sewn. The back cushion material is crafted from foamed polyethylene (PE) and the light strip is illuminated by LED.
Design Challenge
In the design stage, it was challenging to identify an appropriate measure of elasticity of the elastic fibers and select a suitable high elastic material. The designer has to consider a proper extent of weight load on back that keeps the suspension device reasonably reducing weight under normal condition and yields an appropriate level of elasticity depending on specific loads, and the material used should be elastic and durable enough to mitigate the impacts of loads, but not too elastic, failing which the backpack may be unstable.
Research
As medical expert recommended that the weight loading on back should not exceed 10-15% of body weight, a standard laid down for the sake of protecting spinal health and preventing back injuries. The attempt to carry a load exceeding the reasonable value may impose undue pressure and burden on the back and spine, as this may cause discomfort, pain or even injury.
Inspiration
The fact that teenagers aged 10-15 are mainly students and exposed to the risk of safety accidents while going to and leaving school is a global concern to be resolved. In response to poor visibility at night, designers have added light sets to schoolbags to improve individual visibility, thus reducing the likelihood of traffic accidents. And it is important to protect the normal growth and development of this age group, as they are going through a crucial developmental stage. In this sense, efforts to help them grow well and build a correct body shape are considered of paramount importance.
Project Duration
The project kicked off in Quanzhou, Fujian in in April 2023. With the weight loss spine support schoolbag projects released, we worked with the Ergonomics Research Center of Anhui Agricultural University to test and run product parameters, until the finished product design wrapped up on 20 December 2023.
Operation Flow
The high elastic suspension device in the shoulders area of the schoolbag absorbs the weight of the backpack and spreads the force by compression and stretching when user walks with it on his back, thus reducing the impact on shoulders. When walking with a schoolbag on shoulders, the bulged design of the back cushion waist provides extra support and stability to help the user keep a normal spinal curve when walking, the spinal area of the hollow, non stressed design provides no extra support, leaving the spine free to maintain its natural curvature and avoiding hunch over.
