Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the pet carrier is fastened on the stroller body using webbing or fastener, then the pet carrier can be attached to the stroller body, but the combination is unstable and may endanger pet safety when moving on rough roads
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the soft webbing or fastener-based mechanical fastening system with a rigid tube-and-plate engagement system. The landing tubes on the stroller body engage with the plate structure of the pet carrier, providing stable mechanical support that prevents movement on rough roads while maintaining ease of attachment through simple engagement motions.
2Reliability
If the pet carrier is securely fastened to the stroller body, then the pet carrier stability is improved, but the user cannot easily remove the pet carrier for portability
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a dynamic attachment system where the pet carrier can transition between two stable states: securely attached for transport and easily detached for portability. The tube-and-plate engagement mechanism allows the carrier to be firmly fixed during movement while enabling quick release when needed, optimizing both stability and operational flexibility.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the pet carrier is designed to be detachable from the stroller body, then the user can carry the pet carrier separately, but the combination of pet carrier and stroller body becomes unstable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the attachment system into separate functional components: the landing tubes on the stroller body and the engagement plate on the pet carrier. This segmentation allows the pet carrier to be easily detached and carried separately when needed, while ensuring stable attachment when engaged with the stroller body through the tube-plate connection mechanism.

AI summary
A pet stroller includes a pet carrier having a base and an engaging portion formed on the base and a stroller body having two landing tubes configured to support the pet carrier and two holding portions connected with the landing tubes. The engaging portion of the pet carrier being selectively engaging and disengaging with the holding portions of the stroller body to enable the pet carrier to be detachably attached to the stroller body. In addition, the pet stroller further includes a controlling assembly for removing the pet carrier from the stroller easily and quickly and fastening the soleplate on the holding portions.
