Solution Overview

Problem

Existing extraction devices for electronic devices have complex multi-piece handles that occupy space and are prone to malfunctions, leading to operational inconveniences.

Innovation Solution

An extraction device with a one-piece handle integrating a draw bar and hook, featuring a pulling and gripping portion, which slides along an unlocking direction to disengage from a limiting recessed portion, allowing easy detachment and preventing damage during unlocking.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a multi-piece handle is used for the extraction device, then the user can hold on to it for engaging or disengaging, but the structure becomes more complex and occupies significant space

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the handle, draw bar, and hook into a single integrated one-piece structure. This consolidation eliminates the need for multiple separate components while maintaining the functional capabilities of gripping and disengaging the extraction device, thereby reducing structural complexity and space occupation while preserving ease of operation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Ease of operation

If a multi-piece handle is used for the extraction device, then the user can hold on to it for engaging or disengaging, but it may easily lead to malfunctions or inconveniences in operation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidoperational reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

By integrating multiple components into a single one-piece handle structure, the patent eliminates interfaces and connection points between separate parts that could potentially fail. This monolithic design improves operational reliability by reducing the risk of malfunctions while maintaining the ease of operation through the preserved gripping and disengaging functions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Adaptability or versatility

If the extraction device is submerged completely into the electronic devices, then it can be used, but it occupies space and makes removal less convenient

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveusabilityVSAvoidease of removal
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the handle/draw bar/hook assembly from the housing as a separate, movable component that can be pulled outward. This extraction mechanism allows the handle to be readily accessible for user operation while the storage unit remains submerged in the electronic device, thereby improving ease of removal without compromising usability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

An electronic device with an extraction device and an extraction device thereof are provided. The extraction device includes a housing and a handle. A front side of the housing has two ends. The two ends have a pivot and a limiting member, respectively. The limiting member has at least one limiting recessed portion that has a draw bar and a hook. Two ends of the draw bar have a long groove and a pulling and gripping portion, respectively. The pulling and gripping portion is connected to the hook, the pivot is disposed in the long groove, and the hook can engage in the at least one limiting recessed portion along a sliding direction to be in an engaged state. The handle in the engaged state can slide along an unlocking direction so to depart from the at least one limiting recessed portion to be in an unengaged state.
