Hidden Strap Locker Structure for Hanging Display Devices
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display devices lack a convenient and efficient mechanism for securing and adjusting straps or strings for hanging or carrying, which limits their versatility and user experience.
Innovation Solution
A display device design featuring a main body with a strap receiving portion, a strap guide, and a strap locker mechanism that includes a rail, slider, and lever system to easily lock and unlock the strap, allowing for secure hanging or carrying while minimizing visibility when not in use.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a strap is provided on the display device for hanging or carrying, then the versatility and ease of operation are improved, but the aesthetic appearance deteriorates when the strap is not in use
Solution Approach 1:
The strap is extracted from the main body structure and stored separately in a dedicated strap receiving portion when not in use. This allows the strap function to be removed from the visible appearance, maintaining aesthetic quality while preserving the hanging and carrying capabilities when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The strap is nested within the strap receiving portion formed in the peripheral surface of the main body. When stored, the strap is accommodated inside the recessed portion, creating a compact integrated structure that maintains the device's aesthetic appearance while keeping the strap readily accessible for use.
2Reliability
If a strap locking mechanism is provided to secure the strap, then the reliability is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The strap locking mechanism is designed to automatically engage and secure the strap without requiring additional manual operations. The mechanism self-activates when the strap is inserted into the receiving portion, providing reliable security while minimizing user interaction and structural complexity.
