Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional hangers lack multifunctionality, such as air circulation, steam supply, and automatic operation for efficient drying and wrinkle removal, while also failing to address indoor air quality and humidity control.
Innovation Solution
A hanger device with a suction unit, fan module, filtering module, steam supply device, and adjustable hanging unit, which circulates indoor air, supplies steam, and automatically controls operation based on image recognition and sensor data to optimize drying and air quality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a conventional hanger is used, then it can hang clothes, but it lacks multifunctionality such as air circulation, steam supply, and automatic operation
Solution Approach 1:
The hanger device integrates multiple functions including air circulation (fan module), steam supply (steam supply device), drying (heater), and wrinkle removal into a single device. The main body houses a fan module for air circulation, a steam supply device for generating and supplying steam, and a heater for heating air to accelerate drying, allowing the device to perform drying, wrinkle removal, and air quality improvement functions simultaneously
2Productivity
If a hanger device with air circulation and steam supply is implemented, then drying efficiency and wrinkle removal improve, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The device combines the fan module, steam supply device, heater, and filtering module into an integrated main body structure. The fan module and steam supply device are positioned to work together, with the fan blowing air toward clothes and the steam supply device generating steam that is blown onto clothes by the fan, creating a coordinated drying and wrinkle removal system
3Ease of operation
If the hanging unit is made adjustable, then user convenience and adaptability improve, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The hanging unit features an adjustable support structure where the support length can be changed according to user needs. The support includes a fixed arm, an intermediate arm that can move up and down, and a movable arm that can move up and down, allowing the hanging bar position to be adjusted to different heights for user convenience
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 device efficiently shortens drying time, purifies indoor air, controls humidity, straightens wrinkles, and improves air quality, with adjustable features for user convenience and adaptive operation.
Implementation Method 1
a fan module provided inside the main body... configured to suck in air and blow the air toward the clothes
Implementation Method 2
a steam generator, a main supply pipe extending from the steam generator... a steam supply device for supplying steam into the guide passage
Implementation Method 3
at least one of a heater for heating the air that has passed through the dust filter
Implementation Method 4
a dehumidifying filter for absorbing moisture contained in the air that has passed through the dust filter

AI summary
A hanger device according to the present disclosure may include a body having at least one opening to allow air to be pulled into the body and at least one discharge port to allow pulled air to be pushed out of the body. The body is configured to move away or toward a wall surface. A fan module is provided inside the body, and a filtering module disposed over the fan module. A hanging unit extends from a bottom surface of the body.
