Solution Overview

Problem

Desktop screen brackets face issues with the random arrangement of extension sockets, leading to potential safety hazards and an uncluttered appearance, as they often need to be placed on the desktop, making them prone to damage and accidents.

Innovation Solution

A desktop screen bracket design featuring a support rod with integrated extension socket installation slots and a threading opening to securely house the extension socket, along with a connecting part and orifices for secure fixation, and an optional atmosphere lamp for improved user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the extension socket is placed on the desktop to supply power to the screen, then the power supply function is achieved, but the desktop appearance becomes cluttered and safety hazards increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepower supply accessibilityVSAvoidsafety hazards and desktop clutter
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The extension socket is extracted from the desktop surface and integrated into the support rod structure. The support rod includes a receiving cavity that houses the extension socket, separating the power supply function from the desktop surface and eliminating clutter while maintaining accessibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The extension socket is merged with the support rod to form an integrated structure. The receiving cavity of the support rod accommodates the extension socket, combining the support function and power supply function into a single unified device that reduces safety hazards and improves appearance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If the extension socket is embedded in the extension socket installation slot on the support rod, then the desktop appearance is improved and safety hazards are reduced, but the extension socket may be difficult to remove

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesafety hazards and desktop appearanceVSAvoidextension socket removability
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The connection between the extension socket and support rod is segmented into modular components: the receiving cavity in the support rod, the extension socket with its installation slot, and the connecting part with fixing holes. This segmentation allows for easy assembly and disassembly while maintaining a secure integrated appearance during use.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The support rod is pre-designed with a receiving cavity and connecting parts that facilitate the installation of the extension socket. The fixing holes and connecting structure are prepared in advance, making the installation process simple and the removal process equally straightforward when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Reliability

If the power cord is connected through the threading opening on the extension socket installation slot, then the power cord is protected from damage and organization is improved, but the structure complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepower cord protectionVSAvoidstructural complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The threading opening serves multiple functions: it guides the power cord through the support rod, protects the power cord from damage, and provides a clean organized appearance. This multi-functional design element adds minimal structural complexity while delivering multiple benefits.

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