Multifunctional device for bicycles

This paper aims at designing a "Multifunctional device composed of load support and anti-theft lock for standard bicycles". A previous study has been developed in order to justify and validate the final design of the unmet needs of people in their daily lives, with an emphasis on satisfying those that imply specific savings, whether economic, energy or time. As a result, the use of bicycles as a means of transport in Spain is promoted taking as a frame of reference countries such as the Netherlands or France. This means economic and energy savings (by replacing the car) and an improvement in people's health and quality of life. Following the steps of the design methodology, once the need was detected, an information search was carried out in order to identify and prioritize the design specifications that meet the demands of potential customers. For this reason, various sources were used, The boost to use bicycles has allowed to establish a set of measurements and specifications in the design of the device with a double functionality, the transport of merchandise and an anti-theft system. In addition to meeting the needs of the client, the design must comply with a set of reference regulations both, at the level of security devices and the transport of merchandise at retail. The result of the work has given rise to patent application with prior examination at a national level, in a first phase, and subsequently, at an international level.Universidad de Málaga.

La sensorialidad en el entorno del baño. Aplicación de la metodología del diseño sensorial al mobiliario de baño

[EN] The present project has as main objective the study of the perception of the senses and their effects on the human for a later application on the bathroom environment through the design of one or several products with polysensorial qualities or specific sensorial qualities. It is intended that the bath space, besides covering the physiological needs of the human, can also satisfy their psychological, emotional and affective needs, creating an environment where the sensory experience is rich and that generate a favorable stimulation for the users wellness.[ES] El presente proyecto tiene como principal objetivo el estudio de la percepción de los sentidos y sus efectos en el ser humano para una posterior aplicación sobre el entorno del baño a través del diseño de uno o varios productos con cualidades polisensoriales o cualidades sensoriales específicas.
