Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing solutions for securing and handling suitcases and other receptacles of different sizes on a motor vehicle seat are complex, error-prone, and lack user-friendliness, particularly in dissipating forces through rotating mechanisms and requiring complex locking systems.
Innovation Solution
A mounting device with a base body and plug-in elements that attach to motor vehicle seat fixing structures, featuring flexible connecting elements and a modular adapter device with adjustable coupling structures for securely fastening various receptacles of different sizes, ensuring easy and secure attachment and detachment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If existing latches and locks are used to secure receiving bodies, then the mounting mechanism can hold cases together, but the complexity of the device increases and reliability decreases due to multiple moving parts being prone to failure
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting device is divided into separate functional components: a base body for placement on the seat, plug-in elements for anchoring to fixing structures, and a mounting structure for attaching the adapter device. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently, reducing overall complexity while maintaining reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention extracts and eliminates the complex rotating mechanisms and multiple locking systems from traditional solutions. Instead, it uses a simplified plug-in element system that directly anchors to fixing structures, removing unnecessary intermediate components that were prone to failure.
2Strength
If rotating mechanisms are used to transfer forces between case lid and base, then cases can be locked together, but the force transfer path becomes complex and susceptible to failure
Solution Approach 1:
The base body acts as an intermediary element between the receiving bodies and the fixing structures of the motor vehicle seat. It provides a stable platform that distributes forces directly to the anchoring points, eliminating the need for complex force transfer mechanisms through case lids and rotating parts.
3Reliability
If complex locking systems are used to secure receiving bodies, then the mounting mechanism can hold cases securely, but the ease of operation decreases making user-friendly mounting difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting device is designed to be self-explanatory and self-anchoring. The plug-in elements are configured to naturally engage with the fixing structures through simple insertion and locking motions, eliminating the need for complex操作步骤 or specialized knowledge to operate the mounting system.
4Reliability
If fixed mounting structures are used for adapter devices, then the mounting device can securely hold adapter, but the adaptability decreases making it difficult to accommodate different sizes of receiving bodies
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting structure on the base body is designed with universal mounting capabilities that can accommodate different types and sizes of adapter devices. The structure provides standardized attachment points and flexible configuration options, allowing the same base body to securely mount various receiving bodies regardless of their specific dimensions or requirements.
