Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional microphone stands cause arm discomfort during prolonged filming due to the need for manual adjustment of the support pole to accommodate varying user preferences, necessitating a solution for ergonomic adjustment.

Innovation Solution

A regulating device with movable mounting members and adjustable components allows for flexible adjustment of the support pole's angle relative to the stand pole, enabling users to position the microphone comfortably without manual strain.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If the support pole is made fixed and non-adjustable, then the device complexity is reduced, but the adaptability to different user preferences deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure complexityVSAvoidadjustability to user preferences
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The support pole is transformed from a fixed structure to a dynamically adjustable one. The first regulating component enables the support pole to change its angle relative to the stand pole, allowing the structure to adapt to different user needs while maintaining operational simplicity through mechanical adjustment mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The angle parameter of the support pole is made variable through the first regulating component. By changing the angular parameter of the support pole relative to the stand pole, the system achieves adaptability to different user preferences without requiring complete structural redesign.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If manual adjustment of the support pole is required, then the adaptability to user preferences is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates due to arm discomfort during prolonged filming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadjustability to user preferencesVSAvoidoperator comfort
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The regulating device enables the support pole to be adjusted into a stable, self-supporting position that can maintain its setting without continuous manual intervention. The mechanical regulation system allows the pole to serve itself by maintaining the adjusted angle through its own structural stability, reducing the need for continuous operator involvement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Ease of operation

If the support pole angle is fixed, then the ease of operation is improved by eliminating adjustment needs, but the adaptability to different filming scenarios deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimplicity of useVSAvoidflexibility for different filming scenarios
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The support pole system incorporates dynamic adjustability through the first regulating component, allowing the angle to be changed according to different filming scenarios. This dynamic capability enables the system to adapt to various shooting angles and user preferences while maintaining operational simplicity through intuitive mechanical adjustment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

This disclosure pertains to the field of photographic equipment technology and presents a regulating device including a first mounting member and a second mounting member, wherein the second mounting member is movably connected to the first. A first regulating component is movably coupled to both the first and second mounting members to facilitate their relative movement towards or away from each other. In some aspects, a support rod may be attached to the first mounting member, allowing a user to adjust the angle between the first and the second mounting members by manipulating the first regulating component, thereby altering the inclination of the support rod. In summary, the user can position the support rod at a suitable angle through the first regulating component to facilitate shooting tasks.
