| Summary, etc. |
Custodians are important in keeping the cleanliness and orderliness of facilities.<br/>However, transporting heavy tools, and cleaning supplies through different floor levels are<br/>part of their everyday duties, due to this reason, physical strain and the risk of injuries are<br/>sometimes unavoidable. The traditional janitorial carts are primarily designed only for flat<br/>surfaces, making stair navigation risky and inefficient. In order to solve this problem, this<br/>study developed KA-LAKBAY: A Tri-Wheels Stair-Climbing Maintenance Cart with<br/>Hydraulic Disc Braking Mechanism. This product development is designed to improve<br/>mobility, safety, and ergonomic use for custodians in multi-level buildings without access<br/>to elevators.<br/>The study followed a design and development process and evaluated the<br/>prototype through a Likert-scale survey. The cart received a rate of 4.68 in the aspect of<br/>functionality, 4.71 for the weighted mean in aesthetics, average of 4.71 in economy, 4.70<br/>for workability, and 4.72 for durability, and a high overall rating of 4.72, with top scores in<br/>safety and cost-efficiency. Respondents also emphasized its professional aesthetics,<br/>durability, functionality, strong workability, and user-centered design, especially its ease<br/>of use and maneuverability on stairs and slopes.<br/>Based on the findings, the study concludes that the KA-LAKBAY cart successfully<br/>improves custodians’ productivity and safety by reducing effort, and musculoskeletal<br/>injuries, and enhances transport efficiency in facilities without elevator access. Therefore,<br/>the study recommends further improvements in material selection, additional storage<br/>enhancements, and future research expanding the cart’s application for other sectors such<br/>as healthcare services. |
