Adjustable Rod for Image Capturing Module
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional image capturing devices are limited by restricted viewing range when held by a user and are inconvenient to adjust or store when mounted on a tripod, lacking flexibility in application.
Innovation Solution
An image capturing device with a main body, an image capturing module, and an adjustable rod between them, allowing for adjustable distance and angle settings, along with a display module and control unit for enhanced usability and portability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the image capturing device is held directly by user, then the device is portable and easy to operate, but the image capturing range is restricted due to limited arm's length
Solution Approach 1:
The device is divided into separate components: a main body and a detachable rod with the image capturing module. This segmentation allows the rod to be extended independently, increasing the image capturing range while keeping the main body portable and easy to hold.
2Length of moving object
If the image capturing device is mounted on a tripod, then the image capturing range can be extended, but the device becomes fixed and requires additional storage space for the tripod
Solution Approach 1:
The rod with the image capturing module is extracted as a detachable component from the main body. This allows the rod to function as an extended tripod when needed, providing extended reaching capability without requiring a separate tripod structure, thus reducing storage requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The rod serves multiple functions: it acts as an extension to increase image capturing range, functions as a support structure similar to a tripod, and can be detached for convenient storage. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for separate tripod equipment.
3Length of moving object
If the image capturing device is mounted on a tripod, then the image capturing range is extended, but the shooting angles and ranges cannot be easily adjusted
Solution Approach 1:
The rod is designed with adjustable features including telescopic sections and rotation capabilities, allowing dynamic adjustment of length and angle. This enables the user to easily modify shooting angles and ranges without being fixed in position, maintaining operational flexibility while extending reaching capability.
