The wheelchair mechanism for a car that is proposed in this study primarily consists of a transfer mechanism and storage mechanism. The wheelchair transfer mechanism consists of a manipulator installed in the roof of a car, and performs the function of transferring the wheelchair from the driver's seat to the trunk. The wheelchair storage mechanism consists of a lifting hoist installed in the trunk of car, and performs the function of storing the transferred wheelchair in the trunk and safely fastening it in place. This study analyzed and reviewed various manipulators, including a vertical type, Scara type, and telescopic type, with the goal of selecting the best type of manipulator for the wheelchair transfer mechanism. The telescopic type was selected and applied because of its good load support and storage capabilities. In addition, with regard to the wheelchair storage mechanism, a slide hoist type that used a slide rail and lift wire and a rotating link hoist type that used a rotating mechanism consisting of a worm gear and link were analyzed and reviewed. The slide hoist type was selected and applied because it had an advantage in relation to trunk space utilization. This study proposed a wheelchair transfer mechanism for a car to support a conventional wheelchair user's movements, and in order to conform to the structure of a domestic welfare car for the disabled.

현대사회는 문화, 관습, 의식구조 등에 의해 소규모 아파트 및 원룸에서 개인 혹은 2 인 이상 거주하는 생활 방식으로 그 거주형태가 점차 변화하고 있다. 하지만 이런 유동인구가 늘어남에 따라 각자의 생활 속에서 서로의 사생활 침해가 빈번하게 일어나고 있으며, 우리 생활 속에 그대로 노출되어 있다. 또한, 사생활 문제뿐만 아니라 좁은 공간에서의 생활에 따라 좀 더 사생활이 보장되고 수납할 수 있는 공간이 필요하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이런 문제점을 보완할 수 있는 방안으로서 아파트 및 원룸 거주공간에서 혼성 또는 동성, 2 인 이상이 거주하는 공간을 대상으로 수납공간의 효율성이 더해진 사생활 보호의 방안을 찾는 것을 목적으로 한다.

In this paper, when wheelchair user get into the vehicle, we have thorough grasp of the problems of loading wheelchair and give effect to suggest conceptual design in relation to develop manufactured goods. We choose 50 participants with disabilities who manual wheelchair or motor scooter users are able to drive own's vehicle, and the method practice in the direct survey. There are some limitations in this study especially in terms of the sampling population. The 88%(n=44) of the participant replied to the driver with disabilities need assistive devices for loading manual wheelchair. They prefer a system that robot arm brings the wheelchair out of the trunk to the driver's seat door.

The purpose of this study is to develop kitchen furniture design for 40-pyung apartment Houses based on stored item of Cooking, Eating and Utility Area. The research data is gotten at a field study of stored items of Cooking, Eating and Utility Area and depth interview. The results of this study were as follows; 1)The kitchen furniture the preparation unit and the sink, the kitchen table, the heating unit and the service table, arranged at the tall storage. 2)The total bulk considered and holding volume ($2.7m^3$) with ground clearance (40%) planned with about $4.21m^3$. 3)Assumed at height and 162cm did a lower part height with 860mm and the upper depth 340mm, did with 700mm where raises. the storage the ceiling which raises will select and considered and with 2200mm did. 4)Arrangement of the kitchen the kitchen form which is an open type (L/DK or L.D.K) arranged many in forms of letter.

In this paper, we propose a new folding method (the blossom method) to increase storage efficiency of drag-sail. To resolve the issue caused by increase in the thickness of the sail, we allowed margin space (offset) along the folding line and made holes at the intersection of offset lines to prevent distortion of film. In addition, to verify applicability of the blossom method, we fabricated quarter of the sail by using Mylar film and conducted a deployment experiment. If the blossom method is applied, storage ratio (storage volume: deployed area) is 1: 68.64, that is approximately 1.88 times more than the z-fold method of folding sailing.

Recently the development of China has attracted all over the world, many scholars of different areas are interested in Chinese Culture and Chinese Market. After sixties of last century development of the economic of the South Korea closer to modernization, but there are many problems, one of them is the urban living style boasts of the features of concentration. Because of this phenomenon the lack of housing space become more serious. It also come to be a social problems. Therefore narrow residential area become inevitability. At the same time, effective utilization of housing space become a demand. Especially for those families with limited living space, it's meaningful for them. Between the China and the South Korea. Chinese have the same situation too, the different is kitchen space of chinese is closed. It means they have to cook in limited space. With increased supplies and more small appliances, an inevitable requirement is opening out the kitchen space, but unreasonable furnishings and living space reduces the efficiency of the kitchen, which has led to the discontent of users. From this, base on the investigation and analysis of diet&living space of most chinese apartment, and through differences kinds and places of storage items. With them I would combine the food culture and feature of storage space of China to solve problems of the efficiency of the kitchen.

In general, a non-explosive nylon wire cutting-based holding and release mechanism has been used to store and deploy deployable solar panels of CubeSat. However, with this method, accessing the solar panel's access port for charging the cube satellite's battery and electrical inspection and testing of the PCB and payloads while the solar panel is in storage is difficult. Additionally, the mechanism must have a reliable release function in an in-orbit environment, and reusability for stow and deploy of the solar panel, which is a hassle for the operator and difficult to maintain a consistent nylon wire fastening process. In this study, we proposed a pin-puller-based solar panel holding and release mechanism that can easily deploy a solar panel without cutting nylon wires by separating constraining pins. The proposed mechanism's release function and performance were verified through a solar panel deployment test and a maximum separation load measurement test. Through this, we also verified the design feasibility and effectiveness of the pin-puller-based separation device.

Most Nanosatellites are launched in nanosatellite deployers. Nanosatellites in the deployer are turned off during launch, and they start boot sequence after deploying at their mission orbit. For this reason, nanosatellites must have deployment switch. Most of the nanosatellite deployment switch has two part, first is electric switch to boot the satellite system and second is mechanical assembly to push the switch. In most cases, electric switches are installed in the satellite main body, and the switch operations are translated via the mechanical assembly. These implementations are mechanically complicated and hard to guarantee the appropriate operation without the problems due to friction between pusher and satellite structure. This paper proposes the another implementation method of deployment switch for nanosatellites by installing the electric switch outside the main body without any kind of mechanical parts.

Recently, the traffic card is gradually utilized and its several supplementary services have been significantly developed. Particularly, since it is possible to pay fees for buses, taxies, subways, parking and tollgates with only one traffic card, new payment method for economically processing has been focused. This paper presents a new receipt management system which allows possibly paying with several digital cards through PC interfacing terminals. The proposed system is mainly composed of three parts: terminals, middleware, and management servers. A terminal part includes processing module for payment/charging and credit/check/debit cards, etc and its operation is fulfilled through a middleware part. A main task of a middleware part is to connect a terminal part to managing servers through middleware applications. Additionally, processing of several receipt items and monitoring of the terminals to product statistical reports based on the processed result are carried out in the middleware. A management sever part is accomplished for collecting all of transaction histories against users and charging items over allowed province and managing statistical information. The proposed system is currently utilized in the Nam-GU district office and the Nam-GU district health center, Busan, S. Korea, respectively for testing its effectiveness. We conclude from this demonstration that the system is more useful and efficient than the previous processing method especially in that variable payment ways are provided and consumption burden is reduced.
