Solution Overview

Problem

Existing mounting brackets for electronic devices with adaptors often result in poor cable contact and are difficult to detach, leading to unstable and aesthetically unpleasing installations.

Innovation Solution

A mounting bracket system comprising a first and second mounting member, where the first member detachably accommodates the electronic device's body and the second member accommodates the adaptor, with a position-limiting unit and magnetic connections to secure the relative positions of both components, ensuring stable and easy installation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If the electronic device is fixed by the mounting bracket, then the installation stability is improved, but the cable contact becomes poor and the device becomes difficult to detach

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation stabilityVSAvoidcable contact quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting bracket is divided into two independent mounting members: a first mounting member for the electronic device body and a second mounting member for the adaptor. This segmentation allows each member to independently secure its respective component, ensuring stable positioning while maintaining cable flexibility and contact quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The first mounting member acts as an intermediary between the electronic device body and the wall, while the second mounting member serves as an intermediary between the adaptor and the wall. These intermediary structures provide stable mounting while allowing the cable to maintain proper contact between components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Stability of the object's composition

If the electronic device is fixed by the mounting bracket, then the installation stability is improved, but the device becomes difficult to detach

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation stabilityVSAvoiddetachment convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

By segmenting the mounting bracket into separate first and second mounting members that can be independently attached and detached, the system achieves both stable installation and easy detachment. Each mounting member can be separately removed from the wall, allowing flexible reconfiguration without requiring complete disassembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting members are designed with dynamic characteristics, allowing them to be firmly fixed during operation for stability, but easily detached when needed for reconfiguration or maintenance. This dynamic capability enables the system to transition between stable and mobile states as required.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Stability of the object's composition

If the mounting bracket secures both the body and adaptor, then the position stability is improved, but the cable flexibility is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveposition stabilityVSAvoidcable flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The segmentation of the mounting bracket into separate mounting members for the body and adaptor allows each component to be secured independently at optimal positions. This independent positioning maintains cable flexibility and proper routing while ensuring stable positioning of both components on the wall.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A mounting bracket for an electronic device is provided. The mounting bracket includes a first mounting member and a second mounting member. The first mounting member is configured to detachably accommodate a body of the electronic device and limit a position of the body. The second mounting member is configured to detachably accommodate an adaptor of the electronic device and limit a position of the adaptor. The first mounting member is fixedly connected to the second mounting member.
