Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Standard securing brackets for module units in service vehicles are often insufficient or do not fit well, lacking flexibility and adaptability to different module units and vehicle environments.
Innovation Solution
A securing system comprising a bracket with elongated openings and a connecting element, allowing adjustable positioning through a securing element, enabling flexible attachment of module units to vehicle walls, with adjustable screws and nuts for secure fitting.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If standard brackets are used to secure module units to the wall, then the securing method is simple, but the adaptability to different module units and vehicle environments is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket is designed with multiple elongated openings that can accommodate different connecting elements, allowing a single bracket design to secure various types of module units (cupboards, tool holders, shelves) in different positions and orientations. This universal design enables the same bracket to adapt to different module units and vehicle environments without requiring multiple specialized bracket types.
Solution Approach 2:
The bracket incorporates movable connecting elements that can be adjusted along the elongated openings to different positions. This dynamic adjustment capability allows the securing system to adapt to different module unit sizes, shapes, and mounting requirements, transforming a static bracket into a flexible, reconfigurable securing solution.
2Adaptability or versatility
If standard brackets are used to secure module units, then the installation process is straightforward, but the positioning flexibility is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket is segmented into multiple functional components: the main bracket body with elongated openings, adjustable connecting elements, and securing elements. This segmentation allows each component to be independently adjusted and positioned, providing fine-grained control over the final mounting position while maintaining relative simplicity in installation.
Solution Approach 2:
The bracket is pre-configured with elongated openings and connecting elements in specific positions during manufacturing. This preliminary preparation allows installers to simply adjust the connecting elements to the desired positions along the pre-formed openings, rather than having to modify the bracket structure during installation, thus maintaining ease of operation.
3Adaptability or versatility
If adjustable connecting elements are implemented, then the adaptability increases, but the securing system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket design merges multiple functions into integrated components: the elongated openings serve both as structural elements of the bracket and as adjustment guides for the connecting elements. The connecting elements themselves combine the functions of positioning, securing, and adjusting. This merging reduces the total number of separate components compared to a system with fully separate adjustment mechanisms.
