Solution Overview

Problem

Existing baby carriages with a single basket pose hygiene issues due to contamination between baby necessities and food items, and are inconvenient for finding specific objects when multiple items are stored together.

Innovation Solution

A multi-basket baby carriage design with at least two independent basket areas under the seat frame, where each basket is connected to support tubes for stability and separated to prevent contamination, allowing for separate storage of baby necessities and food items, with access openings and connecting members for convenience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If a single basket is used to store both baby necessities and food items, then the storage space is sufficient and the structure is simple, but hygiene is compromised due to mutual contamination between different types of objects

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure simplicityVSAvoidmutual contamination
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The single basket is divided into multiple independent basket bodies (first basket body, second basket body, third basket body) that are spatially separated. Each basket body can store different types of objects independently, preventing contamination while maintaining overall structural integration through the carriage frame.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Quantity of substance

If multiple objects are stored together in a single basket, then the storage capacity is utilized, but it becomes difficult to find and access specific objects

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestorage capacityVSAvoidobject accessibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The storage space is segmented into multiple distinct basket bodies, each dedicated to specific types of objects. This segmentation allows users to quickly locate and access desired items without searching through a mixed collection, while each basket can still hold multiple items of the same category.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Device complexity

If a single basket is used, then the device complexity is low, but the hygiene and convenience are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebasket structure complexityVSAvoidcontamination risk
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The basket structure is segmented into multiple independent basket bodies connected to the carriage frame. This segmentation increases hygiene by preventing contamination while the overall integration into the frame keeps the device complexity manageable.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Each basket body is designed with universal functionality to store different types of objects (baby necessities, food items, etc.), making the multi-basket system adaptable to various storage needs without requiring separate specialized containers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

A multi-basket baby carriage (100) includes a carriage frame (1) and at least two basket bodies (2, 3). At least two basket areas (11, 12) are arranged under a seat body of the carriage frame (1). The basket bodies (2, 3) are disposed on the basket areas (11, 12) correspondingly and connected to the carriage frame (1). The multi-basket baby carriage (100) of the invention has a multi-basket structure capable of storing different types of objects separately, such that the multi-basket baby carriage (100) of the invention is more hygienic and convenient in use.
