Solution Overview

Problem

Existing hammock brackets are inconvenient to disassemble, lack height adjustment capability, and often require insufficient structural support, posing safety hazards and limiting flexibility in use.

Innovation Solution

A hammock bracket design featuring symmetrical brackets connected by a horizontal pipe, with adjustable height through a connecting piece, and a connecting pipe group comprising arc pipes and vertical pipes that can be disassembled for easy transport and assembly, ensuring structural strength and stability.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Strength

If an integrated hammock bracket structure is used, then structural strength is improved, but ease of assembly and portability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural strengthVSAvoidease of assembly
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The hammock bracket is divided into multiple detachable components including connecting pipes, arc pipes, and mounting brackets that can be assembled and disassembled separately. This segmentation maintains structural strength when assembled while enabling easy portability and storage when disassembled.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Device complexity

If a fixed-height hammock bracket is used, then structural simplicity is improved, but adaptability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural simplicityVSAvoidheight adjustment capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket incorporates adjustable height mechanisms with multiple connection holes and movable mounting positions, allowing the structure to dynamically adapt to different height requirements while maintaining overall structural simplicity through standardized components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Ease of manufacture

If a non-adjustable hammock bracket is used, then ease of manufacture is improved, but versatility deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing simplicityVSAvoidflexibility in use
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket design uses universal connecting pieces with standardized interfaces that can accommodate multiple mounting positions and configurations. This multi-functionality enables the same manufactured components to serve various height and positioning needs without requiring custom manufacturing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

The present invention discloses a hammock bracket. The bracket comprises two brackets symmetrically arranged and connected with each other through a connecting horizontal pipe; a hammock is installed between the brackets serving as two side supports for the hammock; each bracket comprises a connecting pipe group; a bracket side pipe is sleeved to each lateral side of the connecting pipe group; the opposite surfaces of the connecting pipe groups are used for connecting the connecting horizontal pipe, and the top is used for connecting a bracket vertical pipe; a connecting piece with height adjustment capability is installed on the bracket vertical pipe; the two sides of the hammock are connected with the connecting piece. The device is convenient to disassemble through reasonable angle arrangement and convenient disassembly structure, effectively guarantees the structural strength, and is more convenient to use, adjustable in height and more flexible to use.
