Motorcycle Luggage Tilting Hook Mechanism for Secure Lid Opening
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing tilting and support kits for luggage on motorcycles have inaccessible release sliding blocks and lack the ability to securely lock the hooking position, making it difficult to fully open the luggage lids and ensuring safe support when tilted.
Innovation Solution
A tilting and support kit with a tilting device featuring a hook-shaped element and a torsion spring mechanism that allows easy switching between hooking and unhooking positions, ensuring secure engagement and disengagement, even when the luggage is tilted.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a camera is held at arm's length for handheld operation, then the camera can be easily operated, but the effective focal length is reduced and field of view is limited
Solution Approach 1:
A portable support device acts as an intermediary between the user and the camera. The device includes a support body with a receiving structure that holds the camera, and a tilting structure that allows angular adjustment. This intermediary structure enables the camera to be positioned at an extended distance from the user's eye while maintaining stable aiming and composition, effectively solving the contradiction between handheld operation ease and effective focal length.
2Stability of the object's composition
If a camera is mounted on a tripod for stable shooting, then stability is improved, but portability and ease of movement are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The support device transitions from a static tripod structure to a dynamic, portable design. The support body can be collapsed or disassembled for easy transport, yet when deployed, it provides stable camera mounting through the tilting structure and receiving structure. This dynamic design allows the system to adapt between portable and stable states, resolving the contradiction between portability and shooting stability.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the camera is tilted at an angle for creative shooting, then shooting angles are improved, but maintaining stable aim and composition becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The tilting structure allows the camera to be dynamically adjusted to various angles while maintaining stability. The structure includes a support body and a tiltable camera mounting portion that can be positioned at different angles and locked in place. This dynamic adjustment capability enables creative shooting angles while preserving aim stability through the structured support mechanism.
4Length of moving object
If a telephoto lens is used to extend focal length, then field of view is improved, but the camera becomes more prone to shaking and harder to hold steady
Solution Approach 1:
The portable support device serves as a stable intermediary platform that compensates for the instability introduced by telephoto lenses. By providing a rigid support body and structured mounting system, the device creates a stable base that reduces camera shake and improves composition stability when using long focal length lenses, resolving the contradiction between focal length extension and camera stability.
