Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current tire transportation assemblies lack adaptability and mobility for attaching to different dimensional configurations of automobile lift beams.
Innovation Solution
An adjustable tire lift assembly with a platform, structural beams, and adjustment assemblies that allow for height and width adjustments to secure to various beam dimensions, featuring inside and outside adjustment modifiers and couplers for precise fitting.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed-dimensional tire lift assembly is used, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but it cannot adapt to different dimensional configurations of automobile lift beams
Solution Approach 1:
The tire lift assembly incorporates adjustable stabilizers with modification assemblies that allow the structure to dynamically adapt its dimensions. The stabilizers can be extended or repositioned along the beam to match different beam widths and heights, transforming a static structure into a dynamic one that responds to varying installation requirements
Solution Approach 2:
The modification assembly is divided into separate modular components including extension modifiers, height modifiers, and couplers that can be independently adjusted and combined. This segmentation allows flexible configuration to match different beam dimensions without requiring a completely different assembly for each size
2Adaptability or versatility
If an adjustable tire lift assembly with multiple modifiers is used, then adaptability to different beam dimensions is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The modification assembly uses universal couplers and standardized connection mechanisms that can accommodate various beam dimensions through a single design. The same basic components (stabilizers, extension modifiers, height modifiers) serve multiple functions across different installation scenarios, reducing the need for multiple specialized parts
Solution Approach 2:
The extension modifiers and height modifiers are designed to nest within or attach to the stabilizer structure in a hierarchical manner. Smaller adjustment components are integrated within the larger stabilizer framework, allowing compact storage and simplified assembly while maintaining full adjustability
