Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional optical fiber distribution sub-frames are either fixed or one-way rotating, failing to adapt to changing usage scenarios, leading to increased costs due to the need for multiple sub-frames.
Innovation Solution
A reversible optical fiber distribution sub-frame design featuring a detachable bracket and optical fiber channel tray that can be switched between left-hand and right-hand rotation, allowing a single sub-frame to meet different scenarios by reversing the bracket and tray positions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional fixed or one-way rotating sub-frames are used, then the structure is simple and reliable, but the adaptability to different usage scenarios is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The sub-frame introduces a rotatable bracket mechanism that allows dynamic reconfiguration between different rotation directions (left-hand and right-hand). The bracket can be rotated to different positions and fixed, enabling the same sub-frame structure to adapt to various usage scenarios without requiring multiple dedicated sub-frames.
Solution Approach 2:
The sub-frame design makes a single sub-frame structure serve multiple functions by enabling it to operate in both left-hand and right-hand rotation modes. The rotatable bracket allows the same sub-frame to be universally applied to different cable entry directions and usage scenarios, eliminating the need for separate sub-frames for different orientations.

AI summary
An optical fiber distribution sub-frame including a base plate, two opposite sides of which are each provided with a mounting point position; a bracket, which is detachably mounted at the mounting point position on any side of the base plate; and an optical fiber channel tray, which is hinged to the bracket. When the bracket is mounted at the mounting point positions on different sides, the optical fiber channel tray is reversed along with the bracket. When the bracket changes position, the optical fiber channel tray connected to the bracket can be reversed together, so that the bracket and the optical fiber channel tray can be replaced from one side of the base plate to the opposite side, and after reversing, the base plate can be replaced from one rotation direction to the other relative to the optical fiber channel tray. One sub-frame can meet two different usage scenarios of left-hand rotation and right-hand rotation through disassembling and reversing, without the need to prepare two types of sub-frames, reducing stocking inventory, thereby saving time and costs. In addition, a method for reversing the orientation of the bracket and the optical fiber channel tray is as described above.
