Nested Damping Assembly for Vehicle Computer Vibration Protection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current damping assemblies in vehicles are prone to damage and dislodgment due to strong vibrations, leading to ineffective vibration reduction for vehicle computers, which can compromise safety.
Innovation Solution
A damping assembly comprising a mounting casing, a mounting sleeve, and a damping body, where the damping body is interposed between the mounting casing and sleeve, enhancing structural strength and preventing damage or dislodgment, even under strong vibrations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a damper is installed on the computer case to reduce vibration, then the damping function is improved, but the elastic body is easily broken and falls off due to scratches from surrounding metal casing during strong vibration
Solution Approach 1:
The damping assembly adopts a nested structure where the mounting sleeve is inserted into the mounting casing, and the damping body is positioned within the mounting casing. This nested configuration provides protective enclosure for the damping body, preventing it from being scratched by surrounding metal casing while maintaining its damping function during strong vibration.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting casing serves as a protective enclosure that cushions and protects the damping body from external scratches and mechanical damage before such damage can occur. The casing acts as a preliminary protective barrier against harmful factors from the surrounding environment.
2Reliability
If the damping body is exposed during strong vibration, then the damping function can be exerted, but the damping body may be damaged or fall off due to lack of structural protection
Solution Approach 1:
The damping body is nested within the protective mounting casing, which shields it from harmful factors such as scratches from surrounding metal casing while allowing the damping function to operate effectively. The nested structure ensures the damping body remains protected yet functional during strong vibration.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting casing provides beforehand cushioning and protection for the damping body against mechanical damage and scratches from the surrounding environment, enabling the damping body to maintain its integrity and function during strong vibration without being exposed to harmful factors.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The solution effectively maintains the damping function, protecting the vehicle computer from vibrations by improving the structural integrity of the damping assembly, preventing damage and dislodgment, thus ensuring the computer's safety and functionality.
Implementation Method 1
The damping body is interposed between the mounting casing and the mounting sleeve... the damping function of the damping body can be maintained to protect the computer host under strong vibration
