Project background
This client's daughter has a feeding tube and needs to be hooked up to a machine when she feeds. This becomes a problem because she can't be very mobile while she's eating and it limits her independence. For example, they can't go for a walk or even take a drive and feed her on the way.  
Photos of the stand that the device is currently hooked up to are included above. 
 
Your task is to design a versatile device to allow the feed pump to be installed in different locations. That might be in a car (off a headrest for example) or in a bike wagon. It must have the ability to hook on to different surfaces. It must be stable and safe to use without any chance of harming the user. It must also be intuitive and easy to use. It should be easy to clean and be easily transportable.
