Ceiling Mount Fixing Mechanism for Quick Installation and Removal
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional methods for installing and dismantling ceiling-mounted devices, such as panel lamps and fans, are inconvenient and require significant manpower and time due to the need for bolts, screws, or welding.
Innovation Solution
An installable and dismantlable apparatus comprising a load bearing part, a fixing mechanism with an unlocking drive component and a transmission mechanism, which allows for easy installation and disassembly by using a first and second stage transmission component to drive the unlocking and fixing moving components, reducing the need for manual labor and time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional fixing methods (bolts, screws, or welding) are used, then the fixing strength is ensured, but the installation and disassembly process requires significant manpower and time
Solution Approach 1:
The fixing mechanism is divided into separate functional components: a fixing component that can be independently operated, a transmission mechanism with first and second stage components, and an unlocking drive component. This segmentation allows the disassembly process to be simplified to just pushing the fixing component, while the transmission mechanism automatically coordinates the unlocking sequence, dramatically reducing the time and effort needed compared to traditional bolt-by-bolt disassembly
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs dynamic components including elastic parts that automatically engage and disengage, sliding components that move along guide rails, and transmission components that convert simple pushing motion into coordinated unlocking actions. These dynamic elements enable the complex fixing mechanism to be controlled by a simple single-direction push, transforming a multi-step manual process into an automatic sequence that saves significant time and labor
2Ease of operation
If a simple fixing structure is used, then the installation is easier, but the fixing strength and reliability are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The transmission mechanism is pre-configured with the first stage transmission component connected to the second stage, which is connected to the unlocking drive component. The elastic parts are pre-positioned to automatically engage when the fixing component moves. This preliminary arrangement ensures that when installation is performed, the complex coordination of multiple unlocking actions is already prepared, maintaining high fixing reliability while keeping the installation process simple
Solution Approach 2:
The transmission mechanism acts as an intermediary between the simple pushing motion on the fixing component and the complex multi-stage unlocking required for reliable disassembly. The first stage transmission component and second stage transmission component work together to translate simple linear motion into coordinated rotational and linear movements of multiple unlocking elements, ensuring that the simplified operation does not compromise the reliability of the fixing mechanism
