Innovation Solution

A combined shock absorption structure integrating a record player and speaker with supporting feet, shock absorption sleeves, and a pressure ring to ensure stability and shock isolation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Area of stationary object

If the record player and speaker are combined together, then the space occupation is reduced and the structure is simplified, but the speaker vibration may be transmitted to the stylus causing poor sound quality

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespace occupationVSAvoidvibration transmission
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces shock absorption sleeves as intermediary elements between the supporting feet and the speaker housing. These sleeves act as a mediator that physically separates the record player from the speaker while still allowing mechanical support, thereby blocking the transmission of harmful vibrations from the speaker to the stylus.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies shock absorption springs and shock absorption sleeves in advance to cushion against potential vibration transmission. By pre-installing these cushioning elements, the design proactively prevents vibration problems before they occur, ensuring sound quality is maintained while enabling the combined structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)

2Device complexity

If the record player and speaker are combined together, then the architecture is simplified, but the alignment and stability of the components may be compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvearchitecture complexityVSAvoidcomponent alignment and stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the combined structure into distinct functional modules: supporting feet, shock absorption sleeves, upper limiting pieces, lower limiting pieces, and pressure rings. Each component has a specific function and can be independently positioned, which maintains stability while keeping the overall architecture relatively simple and modular.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses adjustable parameters such as the compression of shock absorption springs and the positioning of limiting pieces to control the stability and alignment of components. By changing these parameters, the system can maintain proper alignment while accommodating the simplified combined architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

A record player and speaker combined shock absorption structure may include supporting feet arranged on a record player and box holes arranged on a housing of a speaker; the supporting feet are located in the box holes; and gaps are arranged between the supporting feet and the box holes. Through the above structure, the record player and the speaker can be combined through stacking in the upper and lower positions, and the gaps make the supporting feet and the box holes not in contact, so as to play a role of isolating shock. Thus, the above structure makes full use of the indoor space, and the architecture is simple and has good shock absorption effect.
