Novelty Mask Display with Suspension System for Window Mounting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current novelty mask displays fail to effectively elicit excitement or fear as they lack realism and stability, limiting user enjoyment and sales potential.
Innovation Solution
A mask display system comprising a head portion with attached hands and a suspension system mounted on a window, creating the illusion of a peeping tom by positioning the face internally and hands proximally to the window, enhancing realism and stability through adjustable positioning and adhesive or suction cup attachments.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a mask display is mounted on a window to create a peeping tom illusion, then excitement and enjoyment are elicited from the target person, but the mask display lacks stability and realism
Solution Approach 1:
The mask display is divided into separate components: a head portion with face and eyes, hands positioned near the window, and a suspension system. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently for realism and stability while simplifying the overall mounting structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The mask display transitions from a two-dimensional flat mask to a three-dimensional structure with depth, including a head portion extending from the window and hands positioned in space near the window. This adds realism by creating a more lifelike peeping tom illusion.
2Ease of manufacture
If the mask display structure is simplified for easier manufacturing, then ease of manufacture is improved, but the realism and stability of the peeping tom illusion deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
By separating the mask into modular components (head, hands, suspension system), each part can be manufactured independently using simple processes, then assembled together. This maintains manufacturing simplicity while achieving precise positioning through the assembly process.
Solution Approach 2:
The suspension system acts as an intermediary component that simplifies the mounting process while enabling precise positioning of the head portion and hands relative to the window. It mediates between the simple mask structure and the requirement for accurate spatial arrangement.
