Commercial Vehicle Holding Device with T-Shaped Hook for Stanchion Mounting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing holding devices for commercial vehicles, particularly those with tarpaulin structures, face challenges in quick and easy height adjustment to accommodate varying load dimensions, leading to time-consuming detachment and reattachment processes.
Innovation Solution
A holding device with a cuboid base body featuring T-shaped and L-shaped hooks for easy mounting and dismounting on stanchions, allowing for quick height adjustments and secure clamping, reducing assembly time and enhancing flexibility in load securing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If holding devices are firmly connected to stanchions with rivets, then connection strength is improved, but assembly time and ease of adjustment deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The holding device is divided into separate components: a base body and a load securing element, allowing independent assembly and adjustment. The base body can be firmly mounted to the stanchion while the load securing element can be quickly inserted or removed from the receiving space, enabling strength where needed without permanent fixation throughout.
Solution Approach 2:
The holding device transitions from a static, permanently riveted connection to a dynamic system where the load securing element can be inserted into or removed from the receiving space. This allows the connection to adapt between firmly mounted (when loaded) and easily adjustable (when empty), resolving the contradiction between strength and adjustability.
2Stability of the object's composition
If holding devices are firmly connected to stanchions, then stability is improved, but ease of operation for height adjustment deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The holding device separates the mounting function (base body firmly connected to stanchion) from the load-securing function (element inserted into receiving space). This segmentation allows the base to remain stably mounted while the load-securing element can be easily adjusted in height by insertion or removal, without requiring detachment of the entire assembly.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables dynamic adjustment where the load securing element can be quickly inserted or removed from the receiving space to change height positioning. The base body remains stably mounted to the stanchion, providing a stable foundation that allows easy repositioning of the load-securing component without compromising overall stability.
3Reliability
If traditional fastening methods are used, then connection reliability is improved, but productivity during adjustment deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The holding device divides the connection system into a permanently mounted base body and a removable load securing element. The base body maintains reliable connection to the stanchion, while the load securing element can be quickly inserted into or removed from the receiving space, enabling fast adjustment without compromising connection reliability where it is most needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from static, time-consuming fastening operations to a dynamic insertion/removal mechanism. The load securing element can be quickly inserted into the receiving space to secure loads or removed when adjustment is needed, significantly improving adjustment speed while the base body maintains reliable mounting to the stanchion.
