Brake Fluid Pressure Control Device Recess Design
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing brake fluid pressure control devices require increased man-hours and processing costs due to the need for multiple fitting holes and recesses to manage multiple brake lines, which complicates the connection and turning of brake lines.
Innovation Solution
A brake fluid pressure control device with a base featuring a recess with a substantially triangular shape that can accommodate multiple brake lines, reducing the number of recesses needed and incorporating a U-shaped cross-section for easy insertion and clamping, thereby minimizing processing time and cost.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple fitting holes and recesses are formed for each brake line, then turning of brake lines can be stopped, but the number of processing steps increases and man-hours increase
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple recesses for different brake lines are merged into a single common recess structure. The base includes one common recess that can accommodate and stop turning of multiple brake lines simultaneously, eliminating the need to form separate recesses for each brake line.
Solution Approach 2:
The common recess serves multiple functions: it stops turning of multiple brake lines, provides a clamping position for work pieces during processing, and integrates multiple features into a single structural element that benefits all brake line connections.
2Reliability
If multiple separate recesses are formed for multiple brake lines, then each brake line can be secured, but the number of processing operations increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple separate recesses into a single common recess structure that can secure multiple brake lines. This reduces the number of processing operations from multiple separate recess formation steps to a single common recess formation step.
3Productivity
If a common recess is used for multiple brake lines, then the number of processing steps is reduced, but the recess must accommodate multiple different brake line positions
Solution Approach 1:
The common recess is designed with a universal clamping surface that can accommodate multiple brake lines at different positions. The recess includes a bottom surface and side surfaces that provide a versatile clamping structure capable of securing various brake line configurations.
