The Design

About Gaaba Kinderwagen für Gruppentransport

Gaaba ist ein großer Kinderwagen für Kinderbetreuungseinrichtungen, der dazu entwickelt wurde, mehrere Kleinkinder bei täglichen Spaziergängen und im Falle einer Evakuierung zu befördern. Der Rahmen begrenzt den Kraftverlust durch strukturelle Verformung, während kohlenstofffaserverstärkter Kunststoff das Gesamtgewicht reduziert. Große Reifen, zusätzliche Stufen und Griffe helfen dem Wagen, unebenes Gelände zu bewältigen. Die Position des Griffs wurde durch eine Bewegungsanalyse festgelegt, die auf veröffentlichten durchschnittlichen Körperdaten von Betreuungspersonal basiert. Gaaba misst 1470 x 670 x 1010 Millimeter und wiegt 25 Kilogramm. Ziel ist es, Kinder zu schützen und die tägliche körperliche Belastung des Personals zu verringern.

Production Technology
The frame is designed to minimalize the loss of force due to the deformation of the structure. CFRP is used largely as the structural material to reducing the weight.
With the perspective of ergonomics, the position of the pushing handle were determined by the motion analysis performed for the average physique information of childcare workers published by the Japanese government agency.
In addition, large tires, additional steps and grips are equipped to break through rough terrain in evacuate.
Inspiration
Japan is one of the world's leading earthquake suffering countries. Countless lives had been lost in Tsunami and fire caused by giant earthquakes. Infant childcare facilities are no exception to suffer and it may require evacuation to the outside. A transporting infants who cannot walk on their own is indispensable. In addition, it's common in many childcare facilities to take a little walk with 4 to 5 infants on a cart to near park. Large strollers have been used for both daily and evacuate.
Project Duration
The project started in August 2020 in Tokyo Japan.
Operation Flow
The existing carts weighs too heavy to operate and is a heavy burden for childcare workers, while the design of existing products has not changed significantly for a long time.
RDS Ltd., Co. has been engaged in R&D of various motor sports related products for years, and has been an official partner of F1 team Scuderia AlphaTauri in recent. We have applied the technology to Gaaba because we have refined the technology in the environment where light, strong and durable products are required.
