Parâmetros de projeto e bancos de patentes, um acervo muitas vezes esquecido pelos designers.

Abstract

This dissertation presents the course of the master's research in which the relationship between design, product ergonomics and intellectual property is investigated and demonstrated. The objective of this work is to investigate the importance of using industrial patents to aid in the development of industrial products, as a parameter of ergonomics design. The methodological procedure consists of seven phases, namely: Phase 1 – define the research product; Phase 2 – define the project parameters of interest; Phase 3 – define the patent bank to be used in the research; Phase 4 – establish the search criteria within the patent database; Phase 5 – select as patents; Phase 6 – select the search fields within the patents that contain information of interest to the research, and Phase 7 – identify the design parameters within the project patents. Results obtained through the methodological procedure of application that resulted in documents, analysis of conformity of parameters of the sheets21 analyzed from graphic documents of analysis 1 and 2, generated in reports. Conclusions. Conclusions. Conclusions. The result was presented to obtain analysis documents of a study form for the creation of new products with ergonomic parameters, which improve with a synchronous design elements to be presented and integrated into new ones.
