Solution Overview

Problem

The existing electric tools lack a quick and efficient method for replacing tool heads with different functions, leading to wasted time, materials, and reduced labor productivity due to incompatible hole-type interfaces, making it difficult for users to find matching accessories.

Innovation Solution

A multifunctional quick assembly mounting hole for swing tools featuring an assembly bottom plate, bending transition segment, and tool head connecting plate with strategically arranged positioning bosses, clearance openings, and limiting holes, allowing for easy and secure attachment of various tool heads through a simple plugging and unplugging mechanism.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional detachable tool heads are used, then tool head replacement is possible, but the process is troublesome and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetool head replacement capabilityVSAvoidtime for tool head replacement
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting hole is divided into multiple functional segments: a first assembly positioning boss for initial positioning, a second quick assembly positioning boss for rapid attachment, multiple positioning holes arranged in a flower-shaped matrix array for different tool head configurations, and clearance openings for alignment. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function efficiently, enabling quick tool head replacement while maintaining adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting hole structure pre-arranges multiple positioning holes and clearance openings in specific patterns before tool head attachment. The first assembly positioning boss and second quick assembly positioning boss are pre-positioned to guide tool head alignment. This preliminary configuration eliminates the need for complex alignment procedures during tool head replacement, significantly reducing replacement time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of manufacture

If different factories use different hole-type interface specifications, then each factory can optimize for its tools, but users face difficulty finding matching accessories

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefactory-specific optimizationVSAvoidaccessory compatibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting hole structure incorporates multiple positioning holes arranged in a flower-shaped matrix array, allowing a single mounting hole to accommodate various tool head types from different factories. The clearance openings and multiple bosses provide universal compatibility while maintaining the ability to optimize for specific tool configurations, thus achieving both universality and ease of manufacture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Reliability

If complex assembly mechanisms are used, then secure attachment is achieved, but the assembly process becomes complicated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveattachment securityVSAvoidassembly simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting hole structure uses self-aligning features where the first assembly positioning boss and second quick assembly positioning boss automatically guide tool head placement. The clearance openings and multiple positioning holes work together to self-correct minor misalignments, ensuring secure attachment without requiring complex adjustment procedures or specialized tools, thus maintaining both reliability and ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
