Rotatable Grip Holder for Flexible Handheld Device Orientation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing handheld devices with fixed grip parts restrict the orientation of the operation terminal, limiting operability and making it difficult for users to change the device's orientation for better visibility and usability.
Innovation Solution
A handheld device with a rotatable grip part that allows the body of the device to be oriented freely relative to the grip, enhancing user flexibility and operability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If the grip part is fixed to the backside of the operation terminal, then the device structure is simple and stable, but the orientation of the operation terminal is restricted to a constant direction
Solution Approach 1:
The grip part is made rotatable relative to the operation terminal through a rotation mechanism, allowing the device to dynamically adapt its orientation while maintaining structural stability. The rotation mechanism enables the grip part to pivot between multiple orientations (e.g., 0 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees) while the operation terminal remains securely held.
2Device complexity
If the grip part position is fixed, then the device structure is simple, but the operability is reduced when the worker needs to change the orientation for better visibility
Solution Approach 1:
The grip part incorporates a rotation mechanism that allows it to pivot relative to the operation terminal, enabling workers to adjust the orientation for optimal visibility and operability. The mechanism maintains structural simplicity while providing dynamic adjustment capability through a pivot joint that allows rotation between predetermined angular positions.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the worker changes the grip position to adapt to different orientations, then the orientation flexibility is improved, but the enable switch and emergency stop switch are disposed at hard-to-operate positions
Solution Approach 1:
The grip part is designed with a rotation mechanism that allows it to pivot to multiple predetermined orientations (0 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees). This dynamic adjustment capability ensures that the enable switch and emergency stop switch remain accessible to the worker's fingers regardless of the device's overall orientation, maintaining ease of operation while providing orientation flexibility.
