Protective Face Shield mounted to the frame of glasses (PFS-G)

除了国民保健服务对面罩的明显和迫切需求之外，还有对面罩的长期需求，这种面罩可以在当前大流行期间和之后很容易地廉价和大量生产。这个项目解决了这两个需求。首先是扩大我们现有面罩原型的生产规模，以解决国民保健服务的紧迫短缺问题。然后，它会改进原型的设计，使其更以用户为中心，更适合大规模生产和分销。Conker Living已经向柴郡东部的NHS分发了300个自组装盾牌（100个给莱顿医院，100个给绳索巷医疗中心，100个给克鲁的樱草堂护理中心），并将它们提供给其他当地的养老院，超市和一般一线工作人员。我们期望通过本申请中描述的面罩的更复杂版本产生可专利的知识产权。我们将利用这个项目为长期开发计划奠定基础，我们的目标是设计一个综合面部保护系统，利用我们在工程和以用户为中心的设计方面的专业知识。

Beyond the obvious and immediate need for face shields for the National Health Service, there is a longer-term requirement for face shields that can be easily manufactured cheaply and in large numbers for the duration and post the current pandemic. This project tackles both these needs. It begins by scaling up production of our existing prototype for the face shield, to address the immediate shortfall for the NHS. It then refines the design of that prototype to make it more user-centred, and more suitable to large scale production and distribution.Conker Living has already distributed 300 self assembly shields to the NHS in Cheshire East (100 to Leighton Hospital, 100 to Rope Lane Medical Centre, 100 to Primrose House Care Centre, Crewe) and has made them available to other local care homes, supermarkets and general front line staff. We anticipate producing patentable IP via the more sophisticated versions of the face shield described in this application.We will use this project to lay the groundwork for a longer term development programme in which we aim to design an integrated facial protection system, using our expertise in engineering and in User Centred Design.
