Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional wall-mounted bicycle racks are not suitable for all bicycle styles and sizes, particularly mountain and downhill bicycles with large handlebars, leading to instability and the risk of the bicycle falling or damaging the wall.

Innovation Solution

A bicycle wall-mounted frame with a sliding groove and locking mechanism, allowing the hanger's long rod to be telescopically adjusted and the support arms to be rotated, enabling secure and balanced hanging of bicycles of varying sizes by adjusting the distance from the wall.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a fixed-distance wall-mounted bicycle rack is used, then the structure is simple and stable, but it cannot accommodate bicycles with large handlebars (mountain bikes, downhill bikes) and causes instability or wall damage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveapplicability to different bicycle typesVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies the dynamics principle by transforming the fixed-distance rack into a telescopic structure with adjustable length. The rack includes a sliding groove and movable component that allow the distance between the wall and the hanging position to be adjusted, enabling accommodation of bicycles with different handlebar sizes while maintaining structural stability through a locking mechanism.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Adaptability or versatility

If the distance between the rack and wall is increased to accommodate large handlebars, then applicability improves, but the bicycle may swing excessively and become unstable

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehandlebar accommodation capacityVSAvoidbicycle hanging stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by providing adjustable distance parameters between the wall and the hanging position. The telescopic structure allows the rack to extend to different lengths based on the specific bicycle's handlebar size, optimizing both applicability and stability for each individual case rather than using a fixed one-size-fits-all distance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If a telescopic hanger with adjustable support arms is used, then adaptability to different bicycle sizes is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadjustability for different bicycle sizesVSAvoidhanger mechanism complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the hanger into distinct functional modules: a telescopic rod for distance adjustment, rotatable support arms for angle adjustment, and a locking mechanism for position fixation. This modular segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, making the overall complex system manageable and maintainable.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies dynamics by incorporating movable and rotatable components that allow the hanger to adapt its configuration. The support arms can rotate to different angles, and the telescopic rod can extend or retract, providing dynamic adjustability to accommodate various bicycle sizes and shapes while maintaining structural integrity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

A bicycle wall-mounted frame includes a storage cabinet and a hanger. A long rod of the hanger can be telescopically moved relative to a sliding groove of the storage cabinet, so that support arms of the hanger can be moved toward or away from the storage cabinet, thereby adjusting a position of the hanger to prevent a hung bicycle from touching a wall.
