Modeling
The design of the case is made in a modern style, made of impact-resistant plastic and has two halves for access to the internal device. The case is integrated with the screen - this gives mobility to the entire device. At the back of the case there is a recess that acts as a carrying handle, and can also be a convenient shelf. There are also holes for ventilation in the case.
The color scheme is made in smoothing white and gray tones. The basic white body contrasts with the gray details and accentuates the geometry. The screen mask has been enlarged to fit the dimensions of the case, visually enlarges the screen and provides free space for the possible placement of additional duplicating buttons.
The recessed panel, for connecting tubes and information signals, protects against accidental contact. For transportation, it is possible to provide a hinged plug-cover of the panel. A handle on the perimeter stand protects the case from external collisions when moving around the ward. The handle also acts as a guide for the rod. Connected tubes can be inserted into the handle and will not interfere with the movement of the bar in different directions. A new design of the crosshairs of the legs was made and matched to the color of the wheel with a brake.
The stand leg is made of extruded aluminium. The profile of the leg has a square section. Rails are formed on each side of the profile, on which you can install various equipment using a special fastener. Also, a basket is fixed on the leg, in which you can remove extra tubes or additional items of equipment. The basket can be used for household waste.
The stand itself is not part of the body of the machine and can be used to position other suitable equipment.
