Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing refrigerator brackets have complex structures, cumbersome assembly processes, and high production costs, which hinder their effectiveness and efficiency.
Innovation Solution
A refrigerator bracket with a simple structure, comprising a first frame, a second frame, and fasteners, where the first frame is detachably connected to the second frame, forming an installation cavity with a placement opening, and featuring multiple installation sites for secure connection and reduced component count.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional refrigerator bracket structures are used, then the bracket can support and protect the refrigerator cabinet, but the structure becomes complex and production cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket is divided into a first frame and a second frame that are detachably connected, allowing the complex structure to be segmented into manageable parts that can be produced and assembled separately, reducing overall structural complexity while maintaining support functionality
Solution Approach 2:
The first frame and second frame are designed as multi-functional components that can serve multiple purposes: structural support, cabinet protection, and providing mounting locations for refrigerator components, thereby reducing the need for additional separate structural elements
2Reliability
If traditional refrigerator bracket structures are used, then the bracket can support the refrigerator cabinet, but the assembly process becomes cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket is segmented into a first frame and a second frame that can be assembled separately and then detached for reassembly elsewhere, making the assembly process less cumbersome and more flexible compared to traditional monolithic bracket structures
Solution Approach 2:
The detachable connection between the first frame and second frame allows the bracket to be dynamically assembled and disassembled, providing ease of operation during installation and maintenance while maintaining structural integrity when assembled
3Reliability
If traditional refrigerator bracket structures are used, then the bracket can protect the refrigerator cabinet, but the production cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket structure is segmented into a first frame and a second frame that can be manufactured separately using standardized processes, allowing for more efficient production and lower costs compared to manufacturing a single complex integrated structure
Solution Approach 2:
The first frame and second frame are designed to be detachably connected, merging two simpler, cheaper-to-manufacture components into a functional equivalent of a more expensive complex single-piece bracket, reducing overall production cost while maintaining protection functionality
