Résumé : |
Housings not only protect the inner workings of medical equipment, but also protect patients from electric shocks, for example. This function is very important for the increasingly widespread medical wearables, which are often in constant contact with the patient. When designing such devices, it is therefore important to select the appropriate housing material. It must not only be insulating and at the same time well accepted, but also allow an attractive and user-friendly design. |

- Protection of the inner parts
- Protection of the user
- Communication with the user
- Design flexibility
- Table 1 : Dielectric constant and dissipation factor for low frequencies of several polymers
- Figure : Housings play an important role in medical wearables. They protect their inner workings, bu at the same time protect the users of the devices
- Fig. 1 : Mechanical properties such as notched impact strength also depend on the viscosity of a polycarbonate (PC). PC with a lower viscosity also has a lower notched impact strength
- Fig. 2 : With medical wearables, it is not only the function of the housing that plays an important role, but increasingly also its appearance
- Fig. 3 : LED covers should be translucent, but also have a certain degree of diffusion so that the individual LEDs are not visible
- Fig. 4 : Colors in housings are not only used for purely visual design, but can also take on additional functions |
