Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The assembly of window and door locks is time-consuming and cumbersome due to the need for screwing hardware arrangements into fitting grooves, which is inefficient and annoying.
Innovation Solution
A closure system with a motorized base body that can be coupled to a fixing element to automatically attach to a window or door frame, utilizing clamping rails and a conversion device to simplify the attachment process, allowing for quick and easy assembly and flexible mounting on various frames.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional screwing hardware arrangements are used to attach closures to frames, then reliable fastening is achieved, but the assembly process becomes time-consuming and cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the traditional manual screwing mechanical system with an automated motor-driven fixing system. The motor (33) automatically moves the fixing elements (65) into the fitting groove (75) and secures them, eliminating the need for manual screwing operations while maintaining reliable fastening.
Solution Approach 2:
The closure system performs self-fixing through the motor-driven mechanism. When the closure is installed, the motor automatically activates to position and secure the fixing elements in the fitting groove without requiring external manual intervention for fastening operations.
2Reliability
If manual screwing of hardware arrangements is used, then secure attachment is achieved, but the process becomes complex and annoying
Solution Approach 1:
The complex manual screwing process is replaced by an automated motor-driven system. The motor (33) controls the movement of fixing elements (65) into the fitting groove (75) and secures them automatically, reducing assembly complexity while maintaining attachment security.
Solution Approach 2:
The fixing elements (65) are pre-positioned on the base body (13) before installation. During assembly, the motor simply needs to move these pre-positioned elements into the fitting groove (75), eliminating the need for complex on-site assembly operations.
3Stability of the object's composition
If traditional fixed mounting methods are used, then stable attachment is achieved, but flexibility for different frame types is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The fixing elements (65) are designed with universal applicability to work with different frame types and fitting groove configurations. The motor-driven system can adapt its movement range and positioning to accommodate various frame dimensions and groove locations, enabling the same closure to be mounted on different frame types while maintaining stable attachment.
Solution Approach 2:
The fixing elements (65) are designed to be movable rather than fixed, allowing them to be positioned at different locations along the base body (13). This dynamic positioning capability enables adaptation to different frame types and fitting groove positions while maintaining stable attachment through the motor-driven securing mechanism.

AI summary
The invention relates to a closure for a window or door comprising a base designed for fixing to the frame or to the leaf and a closure element mounted on the base. Arranged on the base is a motor, which can be drivably coupled to at least one fixing element movably mounted on the base and which, during the assembly of the closure, is capable of moving the fixing element into a fixing position, in which the base is fixed to the frame or to the leaf.
