Solution Overview

Problem

The existing anti-burglary measures for motorcycles, primarily relying on exposed main switch locks, are insufficient in resisting theft due to ease of operation and exposure, leading to high vulnerability to burglary.

Innovation Solution

An anti-burglary magnet lock arrangement is integrated with a lock holder featuring a raised ring and through holes shielded by an outer wall, securing a magnet lock that shields the main switch lock's lock core, complemented by a mounting bracket for the headlight and dashboard to fully enclose the lock holder, creating a dual defense system.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the main switch lock is arranged completely exposed and can be simply operated with a key, then the ease of operation is improved, but the resistance to burglary deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidresistance to burglary
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The magnet lock is nested within the lock holder, which is integrated into the upper connection plate. The lock holder's raised ring contains the magnet lock, and the outer wall of the lock holder shields the through holes and magnet lock mechanism. This nested structure allows the lock to remain operable while protecting it from external access and manipulation, thus maintaining ease of operation while improving burglary resistance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The lock holder acts as an intermediary structure between the external environment and the magnet lock mechanism. It provides a protective barrier through its outer wall that shields the through holes and magnet lock, while still allowing the lock to function. This intermediary structure enables the lock to be protected without compromising its operational capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of manufacture

If the lock holder is separate from the upper connection plate and attached by additional parts, then the ease of manufacture is improved, but the structural integrity deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of manufactureVSAvoidstructural integrity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The lock holder is merged with the upper connection plate by forming the raised ring directly from the top face of the upper connection plate. This integration eliminates the need for separate attachment parts while maintaining the protective function of the lock holder. The merging of these components improves structural integrity by creating a unified, stable structure that is more resistant to tampering and damage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Ease of operation

If the through holes are not shielded by an outer wall of the lock holder, then the ease of operation is improved, but the vulnerability to burglary deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidvulnerability to burglary
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The magnet lock is nested within the lock holder, which is integrated into the upper connection plate. The lock holder's raised ring contains the magnet lock, and the outer wall of the lock holder shields the through holes and magnet lock mechanism. This nested structure allows the lock to remain operable while protecting it from external access and manipulation, thus maintaining ease of operation while improving burglary resistance.

AI summary

The present invention relates to an arrangement of anti-burglary magnet lock of motorcycle. The motorcycle (2) at least includes a steering unit (3), a frame unit (4), a power unit (5), and a saddle (6), wherein the frame unit (4) at least includes a head tube (40) and the steering unit (3) includes a steering handlebar (31), an upper connection plate (32), and a lower connection plate (33). The present invention is characterized in that the upper connection plate (32) has a front end (32a) to which a lock holder (321) is mounted. The lock holder (321) forms through holes (3214). The through holes (3214) are arranged to fix a magnet lock (7) so as to mount the magnet lock (7) on the lock holder (321). The through holes (3214) are shielded by an outer wall (321 a) of the lock holder (321). A main switch lock (8) is arranged under the lock holder (321) in such a way that the magnet lock (7) shields a lock core (82) of the main switch lock (8). In this way, the magnet lock (7) functions a first line of defense against burglary and the main switch lock (8) serves as a second line of defense against burglary, whereby the capability of resisting burglary of the motorcycle is improved.
