Hexagonal Recess Handheld Figure Attachment with Bulging Portions
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing handheld items for figures are difficult to adapt to figures of various sizes due to a fixed size of the fitting portion.
Innovation Solution
A handheld item with an opening portion, a step portion, a recess portion, and a pair of bulging portions, where the recess portion is configured to accommodate hands of different sizes, with a substantially regular hexagonal opening end and bulging portions that support and hold the hand in various directions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed-size fitting portion is used, then the structure is simple, but it cannot be adapted to figures of various sizes
Solution Approach 1:
The fitting portion is divided into multiple size categories (first size, second size, third size, etc.) with different recess portion dimensions. Each size category corresponds to different figure hand sizes, allowing the attachment member to be selected and matched based on the specific figure size, thereby achieving adaptability without requiring a single complex adjustable structure
Solution Approach 2:
The attachment member enables dynamic adaptation by allowing users to select different size categories based on figure hand size. The recess portion dimensions are dynamically matched to different figure sizes through selection of appropriate size categories, rather than requiring a fixed or mechanically adjustable structure
2Adaptability or versatility
If the recess portion is made larger to accommodate bigger hands, then it can fit larger figures, but it becomes loose for smaller hands
Solution Approach 1:
Different size categories of the attachment member have different local dimensions for the recess portion. Each size category is optimized with specific width and depth dimensions that locally match the hand size of corresponding figure types, ensuring secure fitting for each size without being loose or too tight
Solution Approach 2:
The width and depth parameters of the recess portion are changed across different size categories. The first size category has different dimensional parameters than the second size category, which in turn has different parameters than the third size category. This parameter variation ensures that each size provides appropriate holding security for its target figure size range

AI summary
A handheld item for a figure includes: an opening portion; a step portion formed in a step shape from a part of an inner wall within the opening portion; a recess portion provided on an inner side of the step portion within the opening portion, the recess portion being configured to allow at least a part of a hand of the figure to be inserted into the recess portion; and a pair of bulging portions bulging inward from a pair of opposing inner walls defining the recess portion. An opening end of the recess portion is formed in a substantially regular hexagonal shape in a plan view of the opening portion.
