System for body armour.

This was a job we did for a manufacturer of body armour for the armed forces.  The task involved helping our client with a new mechanism for the jacket. (Due to confidentiality considerations, the photo above does not show the actual armour that we worked on.)

The purpose of the mechanism is to allow the rapid removal of bulky body armour by a single release cord. This would allow increased freedom of movement for the soldier, easier movement of an injured soldier, or quick access to medical aid.

Description:

This is a plastic guard to stop bricks and other debris from falling onto passers-by.

It is fitted to the sides of scaffolding walkways and is a safety requirement. These guards have folding hooks that allow easy attachment to the scaffold poles at the top, and the kick boards at the bottom, but also allows them to stack flat. Traditional plastic brick guards each have to be zip tied in at least 4 places which is fiddly and time consuming. 

They also clip together to form a continuous run along the length of the walkway.

Project Brief:

Create a design for an ultrasonic generator enclosure design.
A compact lightweight generator featuring a flexible OLED wrap around screen that gives a clear indication to the surgeon of the current settings.

Notes:

Project Brief:

This project was for a household name in babycare products. The brief was to create designs for a plastic box that would be of interest to new mums or ‘mums to be’ and would contain all the essentials that a new mum would need to look after the cleanliness of their new precious offspring.
