Selfie Stick Handle Layout for Internal Remote Storage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional selfie sticks have an awkward appearance due to the placement of wireless remotes on the handle, affecting their overall design and usability.
Innovation Solution
A selfie device with a clamping mechanism, telescopic rod, and a handle that accommodates a wireless remote within its cavity, allowing the remote to be detachably sandwiched between clamping parts, and featuring a rotatable connecting plate and elasticity stretching part for angle adjustment, along with three support sticks and extendable legs for stability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the wireless remote is arranged on the side of the handle, then the remote is easily accessible, but the radial size increases and the appearance becomes awkward
Solution Approach 1:
The wireless remote is nested within the handle's accommodating cavity, allowing the remote to be stored inside the handle when not in use. This nesting arrangement reduces the radial size of the selfie stick while keeping the remote accessible when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The remote is moved from a radial arrangement (on the side of the handle) to an axial arrangement (inside the handle along its length). This dimensional change allows the remote to be stored within the handle's longitudinal space rather than increasing the radial footprint.
2Ease of operation
If the wireless remote is arranged on the side of the handle, then the remote is easily accessible, but the overall appearance is affected
Solution Approach 1:
The wireless remote is nested within the handle's accommodating cavity, creating a clean and streamlined appearance. The remote is not visible on the exterior of the handle, giving the selfie stick a more elegant and unified design while remaining accessible when needed.
3Ease of operation
If the clamping mechanism includes an elasticity stretching part, then the upper clamping part can be restored to initial position, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The elasticity stretching part automatically restores the upper clamping part to its initial position after the mobile phone is removed. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for manual resetting of the clamping mechanism, simplifying the user operation while the spring component adds minimal complexity to the overall device.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The solution enhances the cleanliness and usability of the selfie device by reducing its radial size, allowing easy carrying and improved selfie angle adjustments, while maintaining long-distance control functionality.
Implementation Method 1
an elasticity stretching part providing a restoring force for the upper clamping part
Implementation Method 2
a magnet are arranged inside the shell

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a selfie device, including a clamping mechanism configured to clamp a mobile phone, a telescopic rod, a handle sleeved on an outside of the telescopic rod, and a wireless remote. The clamping mechanism includes an upper clamping part, a lower clamping part and an elasticity stretching part providing a restoring force for the upper clamping part. The elasticity stretching part are respectively connected with the upper clamping part and the lower clamping part. The lower clamping part is arranged on a top end of the telescopic rod. An accommodating cavity for accommodating the wireless remote is arranged inside the handle. When the wireless remote is not needed, the wireless remote is sandwiched between the upper clamping part and the lower clamping part. The lower clamping part, the elasticity stretching part, and the wireless remote is accommodated in the accommodating cavity through folding the telescopic rod. The wireless remote is arranged inside the handle rather than being arranged on a side of the handle, such that the selfie stick reduces its own radial size, greatly improving cleanliness of the selfie device, and making the selfie device to be easy to use and carry.
