Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the support device uses a fixed clamping structure, then the electronic product is securely held, but the product cannot be removed quickly

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveEase of removing electronic productVSAvoidSecure holding of electronic product
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The clamping structure transitions from a static fixed state to a dynamic releasable state. The elastic component allows the clamping component to automatically adjust its clamping force, enabling quick release when force is applied while maintaining secure holding during normal use.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The clamping force parameter is made variable through the elastic component. The elastic component stores and releases mechanical energy, allowing the clamping force to change from a high secure-holding state to a low release state, enabling quick removal without permanent detachment mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If the support device uses a detachable joint structure, then the electronic product can be removed easily, but the assembly complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveEase of removing electronic productVSAvoidComplexity of joint structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The joint structure is segmented into distinct functional components: a clamping component for gripping, an elastic component for providing force, and a limiting component for defining movement boundaries. This segmentation allows each component to be simple in design while collectively achieving easy removal functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The elastic component provides self-service by automatically generating the clamping force needed to hold the electronic product. The structure uses its own elastic deformation to maintain clamping pressure, eliminating the need for additional actuators, motors, or complex control mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Device complexity

If the support device uses a simple clamping mechanism, then the device complexity is reduced, but the stability during assembly decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveSimplicity of clamping mechanismVSAvoidStability during assembly
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The clamping component features an arc-shaped clamping surface that conforms to the curvature of the electronic product's corner. This curved geometry provides stable contact and distribution of clamping force, enhancing stability during assembly while keeping the component geometry simple and manufacturable.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #14Spheroidality (Curvature)

Solution Approach 2:

The clamping component has an asymmetric design with a specific arc-shaped surface oriented to match the corner geometry of the electronic product. This asymmetric shaping provides directional stability and precise positioning while maintaining overall structural simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #4Asymmetry

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to a technical field of supports, and in particular to a support device. The support device includes a mounting frame and a clamping base, the mounting frame includes a main frame body and a joint structure. Electronic products are installed on the front side of the main frame body, the joint structure joint is connected with a rear side of the main frame body, and the joint structure and the clamping base are detachably connected. Thus, when the electronic product need to be used, the electronic products are detached along with the mounting frame from the clamping base, and there is no need to detach the electronic products from the support device, which simple in operation and convenient in use.
