Accessory Holder With Elastic Loops For Secure Transport
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing solutions fail to provide an efficient and convenient method for simultaneously securing and transporting multiple accessories, such as laptops, cellphones, and other items, during meetings and transitions, leading to awkward handling.
Innovation Solution
A holder with an elongated base and a flexible fastening strap, along with accessory securement loops, is designed to securely attach and carry devices and accessories, allowing for easy movement by wrapping around the device and using adjustable straps and loops for securement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If multiple accessories are carried separately, then each item can be individually accessed, but handling becomes awkward and inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple accessories (laptop, cellphone, coffee cup) into a single integrated holder system. The holder consolidates these separate items into one unified structure that can be carried together, transforming the management of multiple individual items into handling a single combined unit.
Solution Approach 2:
The holder is designed with universal functionality to accommodate multiple types of accessories simultaneously. It features different compartments and securing mechanisms that can adapt to various item types (electronic devices, beverages, etc.), making it a multi-functional carrying solution rather than item-specific holders.
2Reliability
If accessories are secured tightly, then stability during transport is improved, but accessibility and ease of removal deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The holder employs dynamic fastening mechanisms including Velcro straps and elastic loops that can adjust their securing force. These mechanisms allow the holder to transition between tightly securing accessories during transport and easily releasing them when needed, providing both stability and accessibility as required by the situation.
Solution Approach 2:
The elastic loops and flexible straps are designed to automatically adjust and secure accessories without requiring additional fastening actions. The elastic material naturally conforms to and holds accessories in place, while still allowing easy removal by simply releasing the strain on the elastic components.
3Stability of the object's composition
If the holder structure is made rigid, then structural stability is improved, but adaptability to different device sizes deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The holder utilizes flexible materials such as elastic loops and fabric straps instead of rigid structural components. These flexible elements maintain the holder's overall structural integrity while naturally adapting their shape and size to accommodate different device dimensions, providing both stability and versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
The holder's structural parameters (such as loop circumference, strap length, and compartment dimensions) are designed to be variable rather than fixed. The elastic and flexible components allow the holder to change its physical parameters dynamically to match different device sizes while maintaining structural stability through material properties.
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 holder enables the simultaneous and secure transport of various devices and accessories, preventing awkward handling and ensuring easy movement from one location to another, accommodating different sizes and types of devices.
Implementation Method 1
The first accessory securement loop is made from an elastic material and has a first opening and a first closing end. The first accessory securement loop elastically securing the accessory between the first accessory securement loop and the base.
