Heating Element Bracket Locking for Fast Secure Wall Mounting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional fixing devices for heating bodies with bars are complex, time-consuming to install, and pose risks of the heating body falling during assembly, due to the need for multiple parts and adjustments, making it difficult to ensure quality and safety.
Innovation Solution
A fixing device comprising a support with a cavity secured to the wall, an elongated body with a fixing head and locking pin, allowing for quick and secure attachment of the heating body without screws, using a locking pin to prevent removal and ensuring stability through positive locking.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional fixing devices with complex mechanics are used, then the heating body can be fixed to various wall types, but the assembly time increases and the risk of falling during installation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The fixing device is divided into distinct functional segments: a support element fixed to the wall, a fixing element with elongated body that engages the heating body, and a locking pin that secures the assembly. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, simplifying the overall assembly process while maintaining adaptability to different wall types and heating body configurations.
2Reliability
If conventional fixing devices with multiple parts are used, then the heating body can be securely fixed, but the difficulty of assembly increases and visual verification becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The support element and fixing element are designed to combine into a unified assembly structure where the elongated body of the fixing element inserts into the support element. The locking pin then merges these components into a single secure unit. This merging reduces the number of separate parts that need to be handled during assembly while maintaining high fixing security, and the linear insertion path allows for easy visual verification of proper assembly.
3Adaptability or versatility
If conventional fixing devices requiring multiple adjustments are used, then the heating body can be installed on any wall, but the implementation difficulty increases
Solution Approach 1:
The fixing device incorporates dynamic adjustment capabilities through the elongated body design that can be inserted at various angles and depths into the support element. The locking pin provides a simple final securing action that locks the dynamic positioning. This allows the device to adapt to different wall surfaces and heating body orientations without requiring complex adjustment mechanisms, maintaining ease of operation while ensuring wall compatibility.
