Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional heat dissipating devices require multiple fixing frames of different dimensions for electronic elements of varying sizes, leading to time-consuming and costly installation processes.
Innovation Solution
An adjustable fastening bracket with a supporting stand, positioning elements, and fixing elements that allow for adjustable positioning of the fixing elements, including elastic arms with positioning convex parts to secure the fixing elements in place, preventing them from falling out during assembly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a fixing frame with various dimensions is used for different electronic elements, then the heat dissipating device can be fixed to cool down electronic elements of different sizes, but it is time consuming and laborious to install, and increases the cost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by designing a single standardized fixing frame that can accommodate electronic elements of different sizes through adjustable positioning structures. The fixing frame includes multiple positioning holes arranged in different patterns, allowing it to be adapted to various electronic element dimensions without requiring multiple specialized frames, thereby reducing installation time and cost while maintaining versatility

3Ease of operation
If the fixing element position is made adjustable for different electronic elements, then the assembly convenience is improved, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the fixing frame into modular components: a base structure with multiple positioning holes, separate positioning elements that can be inserted into these holes, and fixing elements that can be positioned at different locations. This segmentation allows the fixing frame to be simple in overall structure while providing adjustable positioning capability through the combination of standardized positioning holes and interchangeable positioning elements
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enables convenient and efficient assembly of heat dissipating devices for electronic elements of different sizes by allowing adjustable positioning of the fixing elements, reducing installation time and costs.
Implementation Method 1
each elastic arm has a positioning convex part... Each of the plurality of fixing elements drives the pair of elastic arms to move from the through hole toward a direction of the at least one positioning recess, thereby positioning the convex part of the pair of the elastic arms for clipping into any one of the positioning recesses
