Abstract :
Scooter is a small toy which is driven by users´ feet. It´s popular among children at different ages. We should take human factors into account during design process. The sizes of scooter must adapt to those of a certain age group of children. In this paper we put forward a methodology on structure design based on human factors, then we build a three dimensional parametric model of a scooter for ergonomic analysis. The parameters of scooters are determined according to the knowledge of anthropometry.
