Solution Overview

Problem

Existing network sharer holders occupy excessive package volume due to their open shape design, leading to increased transportation costs and inefficient use of space.

Innovation Solution

A modular support base comprising a support frame and a support bottom plate that can be disassembled for convenient packaging and storage, featuring assembling structures with fixing brackets, plug connectors, and supporting parts to provide stability and support for network sharers.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the holder is designed as a single piece with an open shape to provide vertical and horizontal placement modes, then the adaptability and functionality are improved, but the package volume and transportation cost increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveplacement modesVSAvoidpackage volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSVolume of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The holder is divided into multiple detachable components including a base component, a support component, and a network sharer component. These segments can be assembled and disassembled, allowing the holder to be compacted for transportation while maintaining full functionality when assembled. The support component can be detached to reduce package volume during shipping.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Stability of the object's composition

If the holder is designed as a single piece for stability and aesthetic nature, then the stability and structural integrity are improved, but the package volume and transportation efficiency worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesupport stabilityVSAvoidtransportation efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The holder structure is segmented into modular components that can be assembled with connection structures such as snap-fit joints or threaded connections. When assembled, these components form a stable and aesthetically pleasing single-piece appearance, but can be disassembled for compact packaging to improve transportation efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Strength

If the holder occupies large volume for stability and functionality, then the support capability is improved, but the transportation cost and space utilization worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesupport capabilityVSAvoidtransportation cost
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSWeight of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The holder is designed with detachable components where the base and support structures can be separated during transportation. This segmentation allows the main body to be compacted, reducing transportation volume and cost, while maintaining full support capability when assembled for use.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
