해외 실외 놀이터 놀이기구 제품 현황 및 디자인 유형에 관한 연구

Abstract

The most important thing to help children develop is to let them play well. Therefore, it is very important and absolutely necessary to create an outdoor playground that children like and can enjoy various games and activities. In particular, it is necessary to provide a space where children can play happily by securing diversity of play equipment according to age group and playground location. Therefore, in this study, we tried to obtain the diversity of amusement equipment and design ideas by examining the current status of overseas play equipment. To this end, various design types of play equipment were analyzed by investigating the development status and products of famous overseas play equipment brands and companies. Accordingly, 20 overseas companies that produce and sell outdoor play equipment were selected, and all products introduced on the currently operated homepage and catalog were investigated in 13 types. As a result of the survey, 34.2% of all rides were combined, other rides 12.28%, climbing 11.69%, crossing 8.12%, rocking rides 6.88%, swing 6.02%, slide 5.13%, eco-friendly rides 4.95%, space net 4.36 %, spinning rides 4.08%, water rides 1.01%, aerial rides 0.8%, jungle gym 0.22%. As a result, a lot of combined playgrounds are being produced, but various other rides are being developed, and it can be seen that various types of climbing rides, crossing rides, rocking rides, swings, and slides are also being developed. In the detailed design type, playground equipment for school age and infants and young children were investigated in various ways. In particular, playground equipment for the disabled considering all generations was investigated in swings, slides, aerial rides, rocking rides, and spinning rides. Accordingly, it can be seen that various types of play equipment considering various generations are being developed rather than being developed in a concentrated manner on one play equipment. By systematizing the detailed types of the representative basic 8 types of play equipment, the currently produced product types were derived and the types that had not yet been developed were checked at the same time. Therefore, it was possible to identify product types that were not designed for each detailed type and at the same time to provide design ideas when developing play equipment in the future. Therefore, this study will be the main basic data when developing designs to secure diversity in domestic outdoor playgrounds, children's playgrounds, and play equipment in the future.
