Firearm Case Container with Hinged Support and Adhesion
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing case-receiving containers for firearms often hinder the arm's functionality and cause discomfort due to weight or anchoring issues, and lack efficient mechanisms for collecting and storing ejected cases without disassembly.
Innovation Solution
A hinged support with a pivoting frame and a cover featuring an access port with Velcro™ or similar material, allowing easy coupling and uncoupling by pressure, and using adhesion elements like magnets or suction cups for secure attachment without affecting the arm's operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If existing case-receiving containers use rigid anchoring systems, then cases can be collected effectively, but the arm's functionality is hindered and user comfort is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The container is divided into separate functional modules: a support element that attaches to the arm, a case-receiving chamber, and a closure system. This segmentation allows the container to be attached securely without requiring complex anchoring that would hinder arm movement, as each component performs its specific function independently.
Solution Approach 2:
The container design incorporates dynamic attachment mechanisms that allow the container to move with the arm rather than restricting arm movement. The support element is designed to remain securely attached while accommodating the natural movement and positioning adjustments of the arm during operation.
2Stability of the object's composition
If existing containers require disassembly for case removal, then secure storage is achieved, but time is lost during reloading
Solution Approach 1:
The closure system is pre-configured with quick-release mechanisms that allow rapid opening without requiring disassembly of the entire container. The closure element can be quickly released and reopened to remove or add cases, enabling fast reloading while maintaining secure storage when closed.
Solution Approach 2:
The container incorporates self-contained closure mechanisms that can be operated independently without requiring tools or complex manipulation. The quick-release closure allows the user to quickly open and close the container for case removal and reloading, minimizing interruption to the shooting activity.
3Stability of the object's composition
If heavy anchoring systems are used, then container stability is improved, but user comfort and arm mobility are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The container is designed with a compact, modular structure that distributes weight efficiently. The support element and case-receiving chamber are sized and shaped to minimize overall weight while maintaining stability through strategic placement of attachment points and structural reinforcement at critical locations.
Solution Approach 2:
The container incorporates lightweight structural elements and thin-walled construction where appropriate to reduce overall weight. The closure system and support elements are designed to provide necessary structural integrity without requiring heavy materials, achieving stability through efficient design rather than mass.
