Handgrip Structure With Foldable Cover And Tool Storage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional assembled hand tools face challenges in storage and mobility due to limited space for tool heads, leading to poor mobility, flexibility, and the risk of selecting the wrong tool head when stored inside the handgrip or in a separate box.
Innovation Solution
A handgrip structure with a foldable cover and installation set, featuring a chamber with a torsion spring for easy tool head access and storage, allowing multiple tool heads to be securely fastened and easily swapped using a connection pipe system.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If tool heads are stored inside the handgrip, then storage space is utilized, but the user cannot easily identify and select the correct tool head
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a nested structure where the foldable cover contains an installation set with multiple insertion slots that can hold multiple tool heads simultaneously. The cover itself acts as a container nested within the handgrip body, allowing multiple tool heads to be stored in an organized manner with their specifications visible on the cover surface for easy identification and selection.
2Ease of operation
If tool heads are stored in a separate tool box, then tool heads can be organized and identified, but mobility and flexibility are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the tool storage function with the handgrip structure by integrating the foldable cover and installation set directly into the handgrip body. This combination eliminates the need for a separate tool box while maintaining the ability to organize and identify multiple tool heads, thereby improving mobility without sacrificing tool head management capabilities.
3Quantity of substance
If the handgrip interior is formed with insertion slots for tool heads, then tool heads can be stored, but only a small amount of tool heads can be accommodated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a foldable cover that can be opened and closed dynamically. When the cover is folded open, it reveals multiple insertion slots arranged on its inner surface, significantly increasing the storage capacity beyond what a fixed handgrip structure could provide. This dynamic structure allows the handgrip to expand its storage capability when needed while maintaining a compact form when closed.
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
Enhances operational convenience and storage efficiency by enabling single-handed operation of the foldable cover and rapid tool head selection and replacement, accommodating a variety of tool heads while improving mobility and reducing the risk of incorrect tool selection.
Implementation Method 1
the installation of a torsion spring, the foldable cover can be rapidly unfolded after the foldable cover is released
