Portable Containment Room Modular Attachment and Wind Resistance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional portable rooms face issues with securing attachments for structures like flags and banners to their frames, leading to sagging or disconnection, and lack flexibility for wind resistance and space utilization.
Innovation Solution
A multi-point attachment system with center and corner attachment points, including sockets and handles, allows secure fastening of structures to the frame, and flexible peak links and straps improve wind resistance and space utilization.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Weight of moving object
If conventional portable rooms use light-weight fabrics for ease of transportation, then portability is improved, but structural stability and wind resistance deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The portable room is divided into modular components including collapsible frame sections, detachable walls, and separable roof sections. Each component can be independently collapsed and stored, maintaining light weight while providing structural stability when assembled through the modular connection system
Solution Approach 2:
The frame structure incorporates collapsible and expandable elements that can dynamically transition between compact transport configuration and expanded operational configuration. The dynamic design allows the structure to adapt to different states (transport vs. use) while maintaining stability in the operational state
2Ease of manufacture
If conventional portable rooms use simple pole and rope structures, then ease of assembly is improved, but reliability of attachment and wind resistance deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
Connection elements such as clips, fasteners, and interlocking mechanisms serve as intermediaries between frame components and covering materials. These intermediary elements provide reliable attachment while maintaining ease of assembly through standardized connection interfaces that simplify the joining process
Solution Approach 2:
The attachment system utilizes adjustable parameters such as tensioning mechanisms, movable connection points, and configurable fastening systems that can be adapted to different assembly conditions. This allows the same basic structure to achieve reliable attachment through parameter adjustment rather than complex design
3Device complexity
If conventional portable rooms lack integrated ceiling pockets, then structural simplicity is maintained, but adaptability for industrial tasks and space utilization deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The ceiling pockets are designed as multi-functional elements that can accommodate various inserts including filtration systems, lighting fixtures, storage containers, and transparent panels for sunroof functionality. This universal design allows a single structural feature to serve multiple purposes across different application scenarios
Solution Approach 2:
The ceiling pockets are pre-integrated into the roof structure during manufacturing, with standardized openings and reinforcement elements prepared in advance. This preliminary preparation allows for quick installation of various inserts without requiring complex modifications to the basic structure, maintaining simplicity while enabling adaptability

AI summary
A containment room includes a number of opaque sides, where a first opaque side of the number of opaque sides includes a door for providing access to an interior of the containment room, a second opaque side of the number of opaque sides includes a port, and the second opaque side is adjacent to the first opaque side. The containment room also includes a roof attached to the number of opaque sides. The containment room further includes a number of pockets integrated with the roof, each pocket is configured for receiving a filter.
