摘要

职业外骨骼(EXOs)作为一种新的人体工程学干预手段,在许多行业(如制造业、物流、建筑业和农业)中减少了对身体的需求,受到了越来越多的关注。然而,它们在采矿方面的潜在用途尚未报道。调查数据(n = 135)来自美国(US)和印度尼西亚(ID)的矿工。定性和频率分析用于总结和比较受访者对EXO使用和采用的感知障碍、好处和促进因素。我们还使用Beta回归分析来检验使用武器支持型外援或背部支持型外援的感知可能性在不同国家之间是否存在差异,是否受到人口统计学或工作特征或对外援的感知的影响。美国和英国的受访者都表示,exo对于起重和架空工作等体力要求高的任务有潜在的好处,但他们也对适应性、不确定性或缺乏知识、密闭空间、设备重量、潜在故障或损坏以及成本等问题表示担忧。然而,也出现了一些关键的差异:美国受访者更有可能考虑使用臂撑式exo和背撑式exo,尽管他们对其使用表示担忧;ID答复者虽然报告了更多现有的健康和安全危害,但似乎对采用exo更为犹豫,这可能是由于这些额外的危害。这些结果表明,矿工似乎对EXO感兴趣,但也强调需要确保任务兼容性、舒适性和可负担性,以确保在发达国家和发展中国家的采矿中安全有效地采用EXO技术。补充信息:在线版本包含补充资料,下载地址:10.1007/s42461-025-01189-1。

Perspectives of Mining Personnel on Adopting Occupational Exoskeletons: Comparisons Between a Developed and a Developing Country.

Occupational exoskeletons (EXOs) have received growing attention as a new ergonomic intervention to reduce physical demands in various industries (e.g., manufacturing, logistics, construction, and agriculture). However, their potential use in mining has not yet been reported. Survey data (n = 135) were obtained from mining workers in the United States (US) and Indonesia (ID). Qualitative and frequency analyses were used to summarize and compare respondents' perceived barriers, benefits, and promoters to EXO use and adoption. Beta regression analyses were also used to examine whether the perceived likelihood to use arm-support EXOs or back-support EXOs differed between the countries and was affected by demographic or job characteristics, or by perceptions regarding EXOs. Both US and ID respondents reported potential benefits of EXOs for physically demanding tasks such as lifting and overhead work, and they shared concerns about adaptation, uncertainty or lack of knowledge, confined spaces, device weight, potential failure or damage, and costs. However, some key differences also emerged: US respondents were more likely to consider using arm-support EXOs and back-support EXOs, despite expressing concerns about their use; ID respondents, although they reported more existing health and safety hazards, appeared more hesitant about adopting EXOs, possibly due to these additional hazards. These results demonstrate that miners appear to have an interest in EXOs but also emphasize the need to ensure task compatibility, comfort, and affordability to ensure the safe and effective adoption of EXO technology in mining in both developed and developing countries.

期刊介绍: The aim of this international peer-reviewed journal of the Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration (SME) is to provide a broad-based forum for the exchange of real-world and theoretical knowledge from academia, government and industry that is pertinent to mining, mineral/metallurgical processing, exploration and other fields served by the Society. The journal publishes high-quality original research publications, in-depth special review articles, reviews of state-of-the-art and innovative technologies and industry methodologies, communications of work of topical and emerging interest, and other works that enhance understanding on both the fundamental and practical levels.
