[Grass Cutting, Excavation, Load Transportation] DARWING Working Assist AS

Jointly developed product by Shimizu Corporation and Daiya Industry Co., Ltd. Available for general sale starting April 7, 2022.

This is an assist suit designed to reduce the workload when using a shovel. It is recommended for snow shoveling. It is a vest type that can be worn simply by tightening the belts around the chest and waist. Weighing only about 500g, it is very lightweight, at 1/8 the weight of electric types. The assist function is activated by the rubber material on the back of the vest and the shoulder-arm rubber belt that connects the back of the shoulder to the opposite upper arm of the dominant hand. When the worker bends forward to scoop snow with the shovel, the back material and shoulder-arm belt stretch, and conversely, when scooping up the snow, both materials try to contract, providing assistive force and reducing the workload. The waist belt also has a pelvic corset function that stabilizes the waist, helping to maintain proper posture and prevent the occurrence of lower back pain.
