Solution Overview

Problem

Existing structures for fixing sprinklers on side walls do not allow for easy adjustment of the reducer's distance from the wall, making it difficult to connect the sprinkler head and compromising the strength of the fixing structure.

Innovation Solution

A bracket and reducer system with a rail block and adjusting bolt configuration that allows for horizontal and vertical adjustment of the reducer, enabling easy connection of the sprinkler head and reinforcing the fixing structure's intensity.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a fixed bracket structure is used to mount the reducer on the side wall, then the structural strength is sufficient, but the reducer cannot be adjusted in position horizontally or vertically

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveadjustability of reducer positionVSAvoidcomplexity of fixing structure

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket is transformed from a completely fixed structure to a dynamic structure with adjustable components. The reducer can be positioned at different locations along the bracket's length and secured at the desired position, providing both adjustability and structural strength.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The bracket is divided into segments with through-holes at different positions, allowing the reducer to be mounted at various locations. This segmentation enables positional adjustment while maintaining the overall structural integrity of the bracket.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

2Ease of operation

If the reducer is mounted far from the side wall to facilitate connection work, then the connection between reducer and sprinkler head becomes easier, but the structural stability and strength of the fixing system decreases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveease of connection workVSAvoidstrength of fixing structure

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket allows dynamic adjustment of the reducer's distance from the side wall. The reducer can be positioned at optimal distances for connection work while still being securely mounted, adapting to different installation requirements without compromising structural strength.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting parameters of the reducer (position, distance from wall) can be changed within the bracket's structure. Through-holes at different positions enable variation of the reducer's location, optimizing both connection ease and structural strength based on specific installation needs.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

3Strength

If a rigid fixed mounting structure is used, then the structural intensity is high, but adjustment of the reducer's horizontal and vertical position is difficult or impossible

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveintensity of fixing structureVSAvoidease of position adjustment

Core Design Contradiction:

StrengthVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket incorporates dynamic adjustment capabilities through through-holes and mounting mechanisms that allow the reducer to be repositioned horizontally and vertically. The structure maintains high strength while enabling easy adjustment during installation and maintenance phases.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The bracket is segmented with multiple through-holes at different positions, creating discrete adjustment points. This segmentation allows the reducer to be easily repositioned to different horizontal and vertical locations while the overall bracket structure maintains its structural intensity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation
