ACM Sensor Holder for Wind-Aligned Placement
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing ACM sensor placement methods are inefficient and often result in inaccurate measurements due to complications in attaching sensors to desired positions on structures like steel towers, with measurement results being influenced by the placement position and direction.
Innovation Solution
A holder device with claw portions and band insertion holes, allowing for secure attachment of ACM sensors in various orientations, ensuring accurate placement and minimizing the impact of environmental factors on measurement accuracy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If ACM sensors are attached directly to structures like steel towers, then measurement capability is achieved, but placement efficiency is low and measurement accuracy is compromised due to difficulty in achieving precise positioning and proper orientation
Solution Approach 1:
The holder is pre-configured with claw portions and band insertion holes in specific geometric arrangements before sensor attachment. This preliminary preparation enables efficient installation while ensuring the sensor is automatically positioned and oriented correctly on the structure, resolving the contradiction between placement efficiency and measurement accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The holder acts as an intermediary device between the ACM sensor and the structure. It provides a standardized interface with claw portions for secure attachment and band insertion holes for proper positioning, eliminating the need for direct attachment while ensuring both placement efficiency and measurement accuracy.
2Measurement precision
If multiple attachment methods are used to achieve precise sensor positioning, then measurement accuracy improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple attachment functions are merged into a single integrated holder structure. The claw portions and band insertion holes work together as a unified mechanism, providing both secure attachment and precise positioning without requiring separate complex systems, thus improving placement precision while maintaining simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The holder is designed as a universal attachment device that can securely fasten ACM sensors to various structures while simultaneously providing precise positioning and proper orientation. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for multiple specialized attachment methods, reducing device complexity while maintaining placement precision.
