Backpack Charging System With Integrated Solar Panel And Cable Passage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing backpacks do not allow for convenient charging of portable digital devices while in use, requiring users to remove the backpack for charging and often disabling charging when the mobile power source is depleted, causing inconvenience.
Innovation Solution
A backpack with a storage battery space, cable passage, and power cable output port that allows charging of devices without removing the backpack, along with a solar panel for continuous charging and additional storage spaces for multiple devices, and a Bluetooth actuator for easy Bluetooth activation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a mobile power source is provided in the backpack, then charging capability is improved, but the user must remove the backpack for charging and charging is disabled when the power source is running out
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the power source, charging interface, and device storage into a single integrated backpack system. The power cable is permanently installed with an output port on the backpack exterior, allowing devices to be charged while the backpack remains on the user's back - eliminating the need to remove the backpack for charging.
Solution Approach 2:
The power cable and charging interface are pre-installed and positioned in advance within the backpack structure. The cable extends from the interior storage battery space through a cable passage to an exterior output port, so that charging capability is immediately available when the backpack is worn, without requiring any setup or removal actions.
2Ease of operation
If the backpack allows charging without removal, then hands are liberated and operation convenience is improved, but the structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The power cable is nested within a cable passage that runs through the backpack body from the interior storage battery space to the exterior output port. This nested arrangement allows the cable to be concealed within the backpack structure when not in use, maintaining a clean exterior while providing accessible charging capability when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The cable passage acts as an intermediary structure that facilitates the connection between the interior power source and exterior charging interface. It provides a dedicated pathway for the power cable, enabling seamless power transmission while maintaining the structural integrity and aesthetic appearance of the backpack.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple storage spaces are provided for charging multiple devices, then versatility is improved, but the backpack size and complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The backpack is designed with universal charging capability through a single standardized power cable and output port that can accommodate multiple different devices. The storage battery space can hold the power source, and the cable passage can route the power cable to charge various devices including smartphones, tablets, and other portable electronics, eliminating the need for separate charging systems for each device type.
