Movable chair provided with cable protecting means
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Movable chairs with integrated cables face issues of disconnection and breakage due to their mobility, as existing cable protection solutions do not effectively restrict the moving or rotational radius, leading to potential damage and interference.
Innovation Solution
A movable chair design incorporating a cable protecting means with a main reception part connected to a main cable, a main connection part to restrict the chair's radius, and an optional speaker mounting member on the headrest for a multi-channel sound system, utilizing adjustable and elastic main connection cables to manage cable length and reduce impact.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a cable is installed in a movable chair to enable functional features (massage apparatus, speaker, display apparatus), then the chair's functionality is improved, but the cable is prone to disconnection and breakage due to the chair's movement and rotation
Solution Approach 1:
A cable guide groove is introduced as an intermediary structure between the cable and the chair body. The groove receives and guides the cable along a predetermined path, preventing the cable from being directly exposed to the forces generated by chair movement and rotation. This mediator structure effectively transfers and distributes the mechanical stress, protecting the cable from disconnection and breakage while maintaining the chair's mobility and functional features
2Ease of operation
If the chair is designed to be movable with wheels for user convenience, then the ease of operation is improved, but the cable is subjected to irregular movement and rotational forces that cause disconnection and damage
Solution Approach 1:
The cable guide groove is pre-formed in the chair body structure before the chair is assembled and put into use. The groove is designed to receive and constrain the cable along a predetermined safe path, preventing the cable from being damaged by irregular movements and rotations that will occur during normal chair operation. This preliminary structural preparation ensures cable protection is built-in from the start, allowing the chair to move freely without compromising cable reliability
