Detachable Odor-Resistant Floor Drain Interface
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional odor-resistant components for floor drains are not detachable, making maintenance and cleaning difficult, and their odor-resistant effect diminishes over time due to non-replaceable designs.
Innovation Solution
A detachable odor-resistant interface with a shell and odor-resistant component, featuring a cover plate with limit grooves and hooks for easy disassembly, a flip cover mechanism, and a mounting groove for secure installation, ensuring effective odor prevention and easy replacement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the odor-resistant component is made non-detachable for secure installation, then the reliability of odor prevention is improved, but the ease of maintenance and cleaning deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The odor-resistant component is divided into multiple detachable parts including a cover plate, fixed seat, and flip cover, allowing the component to be segmented for easy removal and cleaning while maintaining reliable odor prevention when assembled
Solution Approach 2:
The connection between the cover plate and shell is designed to be dynamically detachable through limit grooves and limit blocks, enabling the component to be securely installed during operation but easily removed for maintenance when needed
2Ease of repair
If the odor-resistant component is made detachable for easy maintenance, then the ease of repair is improved, but the reliability of odor prevention deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The component is segmented into replaceable parts that can be individually cleaned or replaced, ensuring the odor-resistant effect is maintained through regular maintenance while allowing easy access for cleaning
Solution Approach 2:
The detachable design allows the odor-resistant component to be removed, cleaned, and reused, recovering its odor-resistant function after maintenance rather than requiring replacement
3Device complexity
If the odor-resistant component is made non-replaceable for simple structure, then the device complexity is reduced, but the duration of odor-resistant action deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The simple segmented structure allows the component to be easily detached and replaced when the odor-resistant effect diminishes, extending the overall duration of effective odor prevention through maintainability
Solution Approach 2:
The component can be removed and recovered after use, cleaned and restored, then reinstalled to continue providing odor-resistant action, extending the total service life
4Duration of action of stationary object
If the odor-resistant component is made replaceable for long-term effectiveness, then the duration of odor-resistant action is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The component is divided into simple segmented parts with straightforward connection features (limit grooves, limit blocks, hooks) that enable replaceability without introducing excessive structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The detachable design features universal connection mechanisms that simplify the overall structure by using standardized joining methods across different components
