Detachable Pogo Module Mount for Repairable Mobile Terminal Docking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mounting devices for mobile terminals require replacement when pogo pins break, leading to significant cost and time loss due to structural limitations that prevent direct consumer repair.
Innovation Solution
A detachable pogo module system for mobile terminals, allowing consumers to replace broken pogo pins independently, comprising a mounting case with a detachable pogo module and flexible printed circuit board connections.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If pogo pins are integrally fixed to the mounting case, then structural stability is improved, but repairability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting device is divided into separate modules: the mounting case and the pogo pin module. The pogo pin module can be independently detached from the mounting case, allowing users to replace only the damaged pogo pins without replacing the entire mounting device. This segmentation resolves the contradiction by maintaining structural stability through modular design while enabling easy repair of individual components.
2Reliability
If the entire mounting device is replaced when pogo pins break, then reliability is maintained, but loss of time and cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting the pogo pins into a separate detachable module, the system allows selective replacement of only the faulty pogo pin module rather than the entire mounting device. This maintains electrical connection reliability through proper module replacement while dramatically reducing repair time and cost.
Solution Approach 2:
The detachable pogo pin module design enables end-users to perform their own repairs by simply detaching and replacing the module, without requiring professional service centers. This self-service capability reduces both time loss and service costs while maintaining system reliability.
3Reliability
If the entire mounting device is replaced when pogo pins break, then functional integrity is maintained, but cost loss increases
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting device is segmented into a reusable mounting case and a replaceable pogo pin module. When pogo pins break, users only need to replace the inexpensive module rather than the entire expensive mounting device, thereby maintaining functional integrity while significantly reducing cost loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The design allows the valuable mounting case to be recovered and reused, while only the cheaper pogo pin module is discarded and replaced. This selective replacement strategy maintains functional integrity while minimizing material loss and cost expenditure.
4Ease of repair
If professional repair service is required for pogo pin replacement, then repair quality is ensured, but productivity decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The detachable module design empowers end-users to perform their own repairs by simply detaching and replacing the pogo pin module. This eliminates the need to send devices to professional service centers, thereby maintaining repair quality through proper design while significantly improving operational efficiency and reducing downtime.
