Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional projector bracket assemblies are inflexible and cannot accommodate projectors of different sizes or configurations, making them inconvenient for use with various projector models.
Innovation Solution
An adjustable projector bracket assembly featuring a pivoting device, a moving device, and an adjusting device with pivotally and slidably connected supporting arms, allowing for secure mounting of projectors of varying sizes and enabling multi-directional adjustments in position and angle.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a conventional projector bracket assembly is designed for a specific projector size, then it provides secure mounting for that specific projector, but it cannot accommodate projectors of different sizes or configurations
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket assembly is designed with multiple arm grooves at different positions and angles on the central axis, allowing a single bracket structure to accommodate various projector sizes and configurations. The supporting arms can be adjusted to different grooves, enabling the same bracket to universally fit different projector models without requiring multiple specialized brackets.
Solution Approach 2:
The supporting arms are designed with both pivotal and slidable connections to the arm grooves, creating a dynamic adjustment mechanism. This allows the arms to pivot for angular adjustment and slide along the grooves for positional adjustment, providing adaptability to different projector configurations while maintaining structural integrity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the projector bracket assembly is made adjustable to fit different projectors, then versatility is improved, but the ease of operation and installation may be reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket assembly is segmented into distinct functional components: the central bracket body with arm grooves, multiple supporting arms with adjustment mechanisms, and connection interfaces. This segmentation allows each component to be independently adjusted and positioned, simplifying the overall adjustment process while maintaining versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
The arm grooves are pre-positioned at specific locations and angles on the bracket, and the supporting arms are pre-configured with pivotal and slidable connections. This preliminary arrangement of adjustment positions and mechanisms reduces the complexity of the adjustment process during installation, making the system easier to operate despite its adaptability.

AI summary
An adjustable projector bracket assembly has a pivoting device, a moving device and an adjusting device. The moving device is slidably connected with the pivoting device and has a bottom. The adjusting device is mounted on the bottom of the moving device and has a projector bracket and at least three supporting arms. The projector bracket has at least three arm grooves formed through the projector bracket. The at least three supporting arms are respectively pivotally and slidably connected with the at least three arm grooves. With the supporting arms pivotally and slidably connected with the arm grooves, projectors P of different sizes or having different assembling holes can be mounted securely on the projector bracket.
