Mechanical design and analysis of medical gloves remover

2023-12 , Muhammad Ikman Ishak , Mike Darren Jamba Anak Sikam , Wan Nur A'tiqah Wan Draman

Medical gloves play a pivotal role in ensuring clinical and hospital safety, as well as optimizing performance. Throughout the medical field, it has been traditionally understood that medical gloves function as a vital barrier, safeguarding both healthcare providers and patients, thereby diminishing the transmission of infections. Presently, healthcare personnel take off their medical gloves manually, using their hands, before discarding them. Should healthcare workers not diligently follow post-precautionary practices, including thorough handwashing and sanitization, the potential for infection increases significantly. Consequently, it is imperative for this study to explore methodologies for the proper removal of used medical gloves from hands, eliminating the need for direct contact prior to disposal. The primary goal of this study was to design and analyse a removal tool for used medical gloves tailored to minimize the risk of infection. Primary and secondary data were procured through the utilization of observation, interviews, and scholarly journal articles. This was succeeded by a progressive sequence involving the evolution of design concepts, the creation of three-dimensional models, rigorous analytical procedures, and comprehensive assessments of usability. The results of our investigation indicate that the suggested configuration of the medical gloves remover is deemed acceptable with regard to its incorporated features, including the adaptable gloves remover structure, main housing, front panel, disposal bin, and bracket for attachment. However, potential refinements may be requisite to amplify the design’s overall efficacy in facilitating the touchless removal of used medical gloves.

Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) are not being fully utilized for energy production due to its high moisture content, low density, having bulky characteristics and low calorific value. In order to improve characteristic of Elaeis Guineensis empty fruit bunch as fuel, pre-treatment process is necessary to overcome these shortcomings. Therefore, the aim of this research is to examine the effect of torrefaction reaction temperature on the Elaeis Guineensis pellet energy characteristics. The observed pellet qualities include the pellet durability and calorific value of the pellet. The torrefaction of empty fruit bunch was conducted in a fixed-bed reactor at 200°C, 220°C, 240°C and 260°C. The torrefied sample was pelletized, analysed and tested to examine the characteristics of empty fruit bunch biomass as fuel. The pelletization process was carried out by using the cold single press pelletizer and using cassava starch as binder. At higher torrefaction temperature, the decomposition of cellulose and lignin become more prominent. At the torrefaction temperature 260°C, the gross calorific value is the highest due to the removal of moisture, release of volatile matter and the decomposition of biomass components such as hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin which resulted in energy densification. By comparing the torrefied empty fruit bunch at 260°C with the untorrefied empty fruit bunch, it was found that the torrefaction increased the energy densification and pellet qualities of empty fruit bunch that can be utilized as biomass energy sources in renewable energy.

The characteristics of the solid fuel pellets, such as its strength, durability and density can be used to assess its quality. During the transport and storage, pellets with low strength and durability produces dusts and ultimately resulting in equipment blockage, high pollution emissions, and an increased risk of fire and explosion. Therefore, pellet manufacturing process should be given priority to improve pellet quality. The use of binder in the production of pellets will aid in improving pellet quality. Therefore, this study investigates the influence of different binder percentages on the mechanical properties of K. senegelensis fuel pellets. Durability, unit density, bulk density and diametral compressive strength testing were carried out in compliance with international standards. It was discovered that pellets containing 4% cassava starch binder produces better results, particularly in terms of durability and compressive ldiametral strength.

A comparison o f RULA, REBA assessment on work activity o f installing safety tape o n floor surf ace using assistive tools

2022 , Wan Nur A'tiqah Wan Draman , M.H.H.A. Rodzi

Safety tape used to mark hazardous, high risk machine and low hanging object in factories, hospital and so on. With the tape, it can warn people to be careful and not play around the area. Additionaly, nowadays the tape is used at all pemises as warning to people to keep social distancing at least 1 meter. Currently, people are installing the safety tape on the floor manually, without any proper assistive tools to apply, measure and cut the safety tape. Unfortunately, this method is time-consuming, and the worker faces body aches such as in the waist, knees, and arms as they need to bend over and be in an uncomfortable posture while laying the tape. The main objective of this research is to evaluate the RULA and REBA assessment of the current method of safety tape installation. The data will contribute to the design and development of assistive tools to install the tape. The tool is assessed using Theory and Innovative Problem Solving and Universal Design Principles (TRIZ-UDP) intervention tools. This tool will contribute towards design features which are deemed suitable to improve the element of universal design. From the UDP-TRIZ, UDP1a has suggested that the product be designed with TRIZ inventive principle "6 Universality". This tool is equitable for Malaysians by making the tools fit the users' height and size. The improvement toward UDP3b and UDP6a contribute towards ergonomic performance. Further after the development, the prototype is later tested, and another set of RULA and REBA assessments is executed to evaluate the improvement. Results of the RULA and REBA assessment onto the task with using the assistive tool has managed to lower the risk, and it can save working time to 34.5%

Design and development of separation tool for tablets and capsules medicine from aluminum pack

2023-04-24 , Wan Nur A'tiqah Wan Draman , Bukhari N. , Muhammad Ikman Ishak , Ismail I. , Lailina N.M.

Medicine is used to prevent the patients from disease and to maintain a good health. Medicine is commonly available in tablets and capsules and both types are packed in aluminum pack. When patient returns the unused or expired medicine to pharmacy in government clinic and hospital, pharmacist will separate the medicine from the pack before moving it to disposal factory. This study aims to investigate the current method used by pharmacist to separate the medicine and identify the work-related musculoskeletal disorder (WMSD) effect among them. A questionnaire survey was distributed to the pharmacist and pharmacist assistant in order to collect information. The result showed that all of them used hand manually to separate the medicine from aluminum pack. As consequence, they have high tendency to get carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and spend a lot of time to complete the task. Thus, there is a necessity to design and develop a separation tool for tablets and capsules medicine from aluminum pack. Throughout process of user need identification, idea development, and prototype fabrication, a new tool can be operated to separate 4-6 packs of medicine depends on the size of pack either tablets or capsules at the same time. Previously, time to separate the medicine is 1-4 hours depends on the quantity of medicine but by using this new tool the time consumption can be reduced until 75%. The significance of the research is it may help to reduce work load of pharmacist then, prevent from WMSD.

2025-06-10 , Muhammad Ikman Ishak , Muhamad Ikhmal Alif Abdullah , Ahmad Ramli Rashidi , Shahidah Arina Shamsuddin , Normah Kassim , Wan Nur A'tiqah Wan Draman , Noor Diyana Dahlan

Traditional kitchen equipment often poses significant challenges and risks for individuals with hand disabilities or impairments, increasing the likelihood of burns, cuts, and other injuries during food preparation. For people with physical disabilities or injuries affecting one hand, performing routine cooking tasks can be difficult and time-consuming. The reliance on traditional two-handed kitchen tools limits their ability to cook independently. This study aimed to design and develop innovative single-handed kitchenware equipped with multiple meal preparation tools and ergonomic features to enhance the cooking experience for individuals with hand disabilities. A combination of primary and secondary data was gathered through observations, interviews, and a review of journal articles. The research process involved concept development, three-dimensional modeling and analysis, and usability testing. The results demonstrated that the proposed single-handed kitchenware, made from PLA material, effectively integrates essential features such as a peeler, grater, cutting board, stopping rods, and a storage compartment into a single unit. While the design shows promise in improving meal preparation processes, achieving cutting and peeling speeds that are 51% and 65% faster, respectively, compared to conventional tools, further refinements are recommended. For instance, improvements in the grating function could optimize its overall performance and usability, particularly for individuals with hand impairments.
