Headrest Camera Mount With Adjustable Arms for Secure Fit
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is a lack of a mounting device specifically designed for attaching a camera to a seat headrest, as existing technologies do not provide a suitable solution for this application.
Innovation Solution
A headrest camera mounting device comprising a primary arm, a mounting block, and a secondary arm, with a camera coupling subassembly and pivot mount, allowing for secure attachment and adjustable positioning on various headrest configurations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a rigid mounting structure is used to securely attach the camera, then the camera is firmly fixed, but the device cannot accommodate different headrest configurations
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting device incorporates dynamic adjustment capabilities with movable arms that can pivot and extend to different positions, allowing the rigid camera holder to be positioned at various angles and distances to accommodate different headrest shapes and sizes while maintaining secure attachment
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting device is divided into separate functional segments (clamp mechanism, adjustable arms, pivot joints, and camera holder) that can independently adapt to different headrest configurations, allowing each segment to be optimized for both security and versatility
2Adaptability or versatility
If a complex mounting mechanism is designed to accommodate various headrest designs, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The device uses a universal clamp design with simple adjustable components that can handle multiple headrest types without requiring complex specialized mechanisms for each type, reducing overall complexity while maintaining broad adaptability

AI summary
A headrest camera mounting device comprising a primary arm having a plurality of coupling bolt holes there through. There is a mounting block having a pair of threaded slide locking bolt holes there in. There is a secondary arm. The mounting block is held between the primary arm and the secondary arm. The mounting block allows for a slidable adjustment to accept a multitude of configurations of head rest supports.
