Elastic Fastening Structure for Stable Shockproof Locking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing fastening methods, such as buckles, often result in unstable and loose combinations due to structural design issues, leading to a lack of stability and shockproofing in object connections.
Innovation Solution
A fastening body comprising a locking part, an elastic element, and a blocking section, where the blocking section is movably disposed at the locking part, and the elastic element is positioned between them to apply elastic pressure to an engaged object, ensuring a stable and shockproof connection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If traditional buckles are used to combine objects, then the fastening structure is simple, but the combination becomes unstable and loose
Solution Approach 1:
The fastening body is divided into distinct functional segments: a locking part for structural support, a blocking section for direct engagement with the engaged object, and an elastic element for applying pressure. This segmentation allows each part to perform its specific function optimally, resulting in a stable combination while maintaining reasonable overall complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The blocking section is designed to be movable relative to the locking part, allowing it to dynamically adjust its position and apply elastic pressure through the elastic element. This dynamic capability enables the fastening structure to maintain stability under varying conditions while absorbing shocks and vibrations, directly addressing the instability problem of traditional static buckles
2Object-affected harmful factors
If traditional buckles are used to combine objects, then the fastening structure is simple, but the connection lacks shockproof capability
Solution Approach 1:
The elastic element is pre-positioned between the locking part and blocking section to provide beforehand cushioning. When external shocks or vibrations occur, the elastic element absorbs and dissipates the impact energy, protecting the engaged object from harmful effects. This prior cushioning mechanism adds shockproof capability without significantly increasing structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The elastic element changes its physical parameters (compression, expansion) in response to external shocks, dynamically adjusting its stiffness and damping characteristics. This parameter change allows the fastening structure to adapt to varying shock conditions, providing effective shockproofing while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The described fastening body achieves a stable and secure combination of objects, providing effective shockproofing by applying elastic pressure equal to or greater than the elastic stroke of the blocking section or limiting part, thereby addressing the instability issues of traditional fastening methods.
Implementation Method 1
the elastic element is disposed between the locking part and the blocking section, and the blocking section cooperates with the elastic element to apply an elastic pressure to an engaged object
