The Research On Universal Design Of The Integrated Cupboard Under The Background Of Aging Society

China has entered an aging society.Based on the current national conditions,most of the elderly in China tend to choose home-based pension mode.Kitchen is one of the most frequently used spaces in the family,but the cumbersome cooking activities make the people who often cook and cook,especially the elderly who live alone or need to take care of their children's diet,feel heavy burden.Integral cabinet is an important part of modern kitchen.It has strong functionality and operability.Aging-friendly design of integral cabinet is an important basis to guarantee the elderly to realize their self-reliance.At present,China's cabinet industry investment in aging design is insufficient,the overall cabinet needs more refined design to meet the use needs of more family members,including the elderly.This paper takes the whole cabinet as the research object,focusing on the elderly.Through questionnaire survey,household survey and simulation experience,it deeply understands the behavior and psychological characteristics of the elderly in the kitchen,and combines the physiological characteristics of the elderly to analyze their needs for the use of the whole cabinet.On this basis,under the guidance of general design theory,the general design principles and key points of aging-friendly integrated cabinets are put forward.Through design practice,the existing integrated cabinets are optimized to improve their aging-friendly problems,so as to improve the safety of the kitchen,reduce the labor burden of kitchen activities,let the elderly enjoy the cooking fun in the kitchen,and improve the elderly at home.Quality of life in old age.This paper is divided into six chapters.The introduction of the first chapter mainly includes the research background of this topic,the research status at home and abroad,the research purpose,significance,methods and innovations.In the second chapter,the general design theory and the overview of the whole cabinet products are discussed,and the necessity and feasibility of the aging design of the whole cabinet are elaborated.Chapter 3,through user research,questionnaire survey and other ways to understand the cooking behavior of the elderly at home,analyze the problems andneeds of the elderly with different disabilities in the use of cabinets.Chapter IV,based on the understanding of the existing integrated cabinet products and the survey feedback of the elderly users,and guided by the general design theory,puts forward the general design ideas,principles and methods for the aging integrated cabinet.In the fifth chapter,in order to better verify the previous methods,the existing cabinet is improved and designed,trying to solve the main obstacles encountered by the elderly at home,the legs disabled and other physically weak in the process of kitchen operation,so that the kitchen can be more widely accessible and comfortable for family members.Chapter 6,combing and summarizing the papers,and on the basis of analysis and research deficiencies,prospects the development trend of the overall cabinet in the future.
