Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a vehicle transporting frame is used for small and medium-sized vehicles, then the frame structure is suitable and compact, but it cannot accommodate medium-to-large vehicles and SUVs due to space constraints
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the upper frame adjustable relative to the lower frame through telescopic support members. The support members can extend and retract, allowing the upper frame to change its position and angle dynamically. This enables the same frame structure to accommodate vehicles of different sizes by adjusting the frame configuration, thereby resolving the contradiction between adaptability and space constraints
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes physical parameters of the frame structure, specifically the distance between the upper and lower frames and the angle of the upper frame, by using telescopic support members with adjustable lengths. This allows the frame to be reconfigured for different vehicle types, enabling accommodation of medium-to-large vehicles while maintaining container space utilization
2Productivity
If medium-to-large vehicles are loaded flat in the container, then space utilization seems maximized, but operators cannot enter the container to secure vehicles and drivers cannot exit after loading
Solution Approach 1:
The adjustable upper frame creates dynamic loading configurations that can be optimized for both efficiency and accessibility. By adjusting the frame angle and position, the loading process can be streamlined while maintaining operator access, thus resolving the contradiction between productivity and ease of operation
Solution Approach 2:
The frame is segmented into adjustable components (upper frame, lower frame, telescopic support members) that can be independently positioned. This segmentation allows the frame to be configured in ways that facilitate both efficient loading and operator accessibility, addressing the contradiction between productivity and ease of operation
3Adaptability or versatility
If the upper frame is fixed relative to the lower frame, then the structure is simple and stable, but it cannot optimize container space utilization for different vehicle sizes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces controlled dynamics through telescopic support members that allow the upper frame to adjust its position relative to the lower frame. This dynamic capability enables space optimization for different vehicle sizes while maintaining relative structural simplicity through standardized mechanical components, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and device complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The telescopic support members serve multiple functions: they provide structural support, enable angle adjustment, and facilitate space optimization. This multi-functionality reduces the need for additional complex components, allowing the frame to adapt to different vehicle sizes without proportionally increasing device complexity

AI summary
The present invention discloses a vehicle transporting frame, comprising a lower frame, standing posts, and an upper frame. The standing posts have one end hinged to the lower frame and are sleeved with sleeve tubes slidable relative thereto, and the sleeve tubes have sleeve tube connection shafts. The upper frame has one end hinged to the lower frame and the other end connected with the connection shafts. According to the present invention, an angle of the upper frame of the vehicle transporting frame relative to the lower frame is adjustable, thus enabling optimal utilization of an internal space of a container. Furthermore, medium-to-large vehicles and SUVs can be loaded on and secured at an outer side of the container, thus eliminating operation inconvenience or safety risks caused by insufficient space within the container.
