Solution Overview

Problem

Existing solutions for storing electronic parts are not compact or merchantable, making it difficult to carry and manage small, easily lost components during travel or business trips.

Innovation Solution

A portable multi-kit assembly with modular accommodation portions and coupling kits that allow for easy insertion, retrieval, and secure storage of various electronic parts, including pens, reset pins, composite connectors, and SD card adaptors, using a base with integrated grip portions and sliding mechanisms for convenient access.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional part storage containers with shelves and vertical panels are used, then parts can be arranged and stored, but the case becomes bulky and loses compactness

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveparts storage capabilityVSAvoidcase size
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The coupling kit is inserted into the accommodation portion of the base, with the guide accommodating the electronic part. This nested structure allows multiple components to be housed within each other, achieving compact storage without requiring separate containers for each part type.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The storage system is divided into modular components: the base with accommodation portions, the coupling kit with body and grip portion, and the guide for individual parts. This segmentation allows for compact individual components that can be selectively assembled, avoiding the bulk of traditional all-encompassing storage cases.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Volume of moving object

If electronic parts are stored in a compact case, then portability is improved, but it becomes difficult to access and retrieve individual parts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecase sizeVSAvoidparts accessibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The coupling kit can slide between a retracted position (stored within the base) and an advanced position (partially extended for access). The grip portion allows users to easily push and pull the coupling kit, dynamically adjusting the accessibility of stored parts without opening the entire case.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The electronic part is extracted from the body of the coupling kit through the guide, allowing selective retrieval of individual parts while the rest of the coupling kit remains stored in the base. This enables access to specific components without exposing the entire storage system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Ease of manufacture

If a simple storage container is used, then manufacturing is easy, but the case lacks robustness and protection for electronic parts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecase fabricationVSAvoidparts protection
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The protection system is segmented into multiple functional components: the base provides structural housing, the coupling kit provides secure retention through the guide, and the grip portion provides controlled access. This segmentation allows each component to be manufactured simply while collectively providing robust protection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The nested arrangement of the guide within the coupling kit body, and the coupling kit within the base accommodation portion, creates multiple layers of protection. Each nested layer contributes to securing the electronic part while maintaining manufacturing simplicity through standardized component fabrication.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

AI summary

A portable multi-kit assembly for storing electronic parts according to the present invention includes a base in which a plurality of accommodation portions configured to accommodate electronic parts is formed. The plurality of accommodation portions includes a first accommodation portion configured to accommodate a first part. The first part is fastened to the first accommodation portion, and is coupled to a first coupling kit having a shape corresponding to that of the first accommodation portion and accommodated in the first accommodation portion. A grip portion is foiled on the first coupling kit, and allows the first part to be withdrawn from or retracted into the base in such a manner that the grip portion is pushed with a finger.
