Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing card boxes lack separate spaces for special cards or game props, making it difficult to locate and store them during gameplay, and they are prone to being lost when removed from the main container.
Innovation Solution
A magnetic type card box assembly with adherence boxes magnetically attached to the side surfaces of the main body, specifically designed to hold special cards and game props, utilizing magnets and iron sheets for secure attachment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a single unified box structure is used for all cards, then the structure is simple and compact, but there is no separate space for special cards or game props making them difficult to locate and store
Solution Approach 1:
The card box is divided into multiple independent compartments: a main body for common cards and separate adherence boxes for special cards and game props. This segmentation allows different types of items to be stored in dedicated spaces, improving ease of operation while maintaining overall structural simplicity through modular design.
Solution Approach 2:
The adherence boxes are attached to the outer surface of the card box main body, utilizing the external surface area as an additional storage dimension. This allows special cards and game props to be stored in a separate spatial plane without increasing the internal volume complexity of the main body.
2Ease of operation
If special cards or game props are removed from the main container for storage, then they can be stored separately, but they are prone to being lost
Solution Approach 1:
The adherence boxes are magnetically attached to the card box main body, merging the storage of special cards and game props with the main container. This ensures that when the main box is carried or stored, the adherence boxes remain attached, eliminating the risk of loss while maintaining easy access for storage and retrieval.
Solution Approach 2:
The magnetic attachment mechanism replaces traditional mechanical fastening methods. The magnets embedded in the card box main body automatically hold the adherence boxes in place through magnetic attraction, providing reliable retention without complex mechanical structures.
3Ease of operation
If multiple separate containers are used for different card types, then separate storage space is provided, but the device becomes more complex and harder to carry
Solution Approach 1:
The card box main body serves multiple functions: it stores common cards in its interior cavity and simultaneously provides magnetic attachment surfaces for adherence boxes containing special cards and game props. This multi-functionality consolidates multiple storage needs into a single unified structure, reducing the number of separate containers needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The adherence boxes are nested on the external surface of the card box main body, similar to nested dolls. This allows the adherence boxes to be integrated with the main structure without adding significant external dimensions, maintaining compactness while providing separate storage spaces.
