Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing large-screen VR integrated game machines face challenges with complex module installation and maintenance, large size, non-adjustable height, lack of mounting structure for the VR control handle, and difficulties in transportation and maintenance due to their external machine structure.
Innovation Solution
A large-screen VR integrated game machine design featuring a foldable structure with an upper and lower assembly, incorporating a VR head mounted display retracting device with a pulley system, electrical control system, and power transmission system, allowing for adjustable height, easy maintenance, and unattended operation, including ultraviolet disinfection for hygiene.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the VR integrated game machine uses multiple separate modules, then the functionality is comprehensive, but the installation and maintenance become difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The device is divided into an upper assembly containing the head mounted display and a lower assembly containing the control handle and base, connected through a folding connection structure. This segmentation allows independent maintenance of each module while preserving comprehensive functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The upper assembly and lower assembly are combined into a single integrated device with shared power supply and control systems, enabling comprehensive functionality while maintaining ease of maintenance through modular design.
2Stability of the object's composition
If the VR integrated game machine has a fixed large structure, then the stability is good, but the transportation and space occupation become problematic
Solution Approach 1:
The connection between upper and lower assemblies is made foldable and adjustable, allowing the structure to transition between a stable expanded configuration during operation and a compact folded configuration for transportation, resolving the contradiction between stability and mobility.
3Device complexity
If the equipment height is fixed, then the structural design is simple, but the adaptability to different operation sites is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The folding connection structure enables dynamic adjustment of the distance between upper and lower assemblies, allowing height adaptation to different operation sites while maintaining relatively simple structural design through the use of standard folding mechanisms.
4Ease of operation
If the head mounted display remains exposed, then the accessibility is good, but the hygiene and protection are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The upper assembly automatically folds to cover the head mounted display after use, performing protective action in advance before contamination can occur, while maintaining accessibility during operation through the automated folding mechanism.

AI summary
A large-screen VR integrated game machine comprises an upper assembly moveably attached to a lower assembly. A VR head mounted display retracting device positioned within the interior of the upper display, comprises a power transmission system, an electrical control system and a pulley system. The VR integrated game machine moveable upper assembly provides a folding structure that allows easier maintenance and upgrades of the equipment under unattended operation. Because the game machine is foldable the height can be shortened to alleviate transportation difficulties and set up at an operation site.
