Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional working desks lack compartments or chambers to accommodate and support mobile devices, tablets, screens, and laptops, limiting their functionality for information display and storage.

Innovation Solution

A table combination with a chambered table plate supporting a displayer device and a shield with openings for receiving mobile devices, along with a housing in a carrying bag that includes a foldable cover and lock mechanism, allowing for secure storage and display connectivity via a connector.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional working desks are used, then the structure is simple, but they lack compartments or chambers for accommodating mobile devices and tablets

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefunctionality for information display and storageVSAvoidstructure with compartments and chambers
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The table plate is divided into multiple compartments including a first compartment for mobile devices, a second compartment for tablets, and a third compartment for other objects. This segmentation allows the desk to accommodate different types of devices in dedicated spaces, enhancing versatility without requiring a completely new desk design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The desk structure serves multiple functions: it provides a surface for working, contains compartments for storing mobile devices, tablets, and other objects, and includes support structures for displaying information. This multi-functionality resolves the contradiction by making a single structure serve both storage and display purposes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If compartments are added to the table plate, then storage capability is improved, but the manufacturing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestorage capabilityVSAvoidmanufacturing of chambered table plate
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The table plate is segmented into distinct compartments using dividing walls or separators. This segmentation approach allows for modular manufacturing where compartments can be created as separate elements and then assembled, reducing the overall manufacturing complexity compared to creating a fully integrated complex structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Ease of operation

If a shield with openings is used to receive mobile devices, then security and organization are improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecure storage and positioningVSAvoidshield structure with openings
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The shield structure incorporates openings at specific locations and sizes tailored to accommodate mobile devices of different dimensions. This local quality approach ensures that each opening is optimized for its specific purpose, providing secure storage and proper positioning while maintaining a relatively simple overall shield structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
