Solution Overview

Problem

There is a need for an in-house relay device capable of 5G wireless communication that can be easily and stably installed in a home environment without professional assistance, while ensuring high data transmission rates and efficient communication with repeaters using ultra-high frequency bands.

Innovation Solution

A support equipment with a vertical rod, a support member, and a fixing member that includes a rotating plate for adjusting the direction of the in-house relay device, allowing it to be securely fixed to a permeable outer wall, enabling self-installation and stable communication with a wireless communication service provider's repeater in the mmWave band.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the in-house relay device is installed using traditional mounting methods, then professional installation is required, but this increases installation complexity and time consumption

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of installationVSAvoidinstallation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting kit enables the in-house relay device to be installed by end-users without requiring professional installation technicians. The self-contained design with pre-configured components allows users to perform the installation themselves, transforming a previously professional-service-only task into a consumer-friendly self-service operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting solution is divided into distinct modular components including a mounting plate, adjustable arm, fastening mechanisms, and installation guide. This segmentation allows each component to be independently handled, simplified, and assembled in a logical sequence, reducing the overall complexity of the installation process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If the in-house relay device is installed without a dedicated mounting structure, then installation is simpler, but the device cannot be stably fixed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestability of fixationVSAvoidmounting structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting plate, adjustable arm, and fastening mechanisms are combined into an integrated mounting kit assembly that works together as a unified system. This merging of components ensures stable fixation of the in-house relay device while presenting a single cohesive solution rather than multiple separate elements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting structure incorporates an adjustable arm with rotational and angular adjustment capabilities, allowing the in-house relay device to be positioned dynamically to optimize signal reception. This dynamic adjustability ensures reliable signal communication while adapting to different installation environments and wall configurations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Reliability

If the in-house relay device direction is fixed, then the mounting structure is simpler, but signal transmission optimization is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
