Separable Battery Pack Supporting Member for Hand-Held Blowers
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing hand-held blower battery pack supporting members are not adaptable to accommodate higher power requirements, as they are typically integrated and only compatible with specific battery packs, limiting power and runtime options.
Innovation Solution
A separable battery pack supporting member for hand-held blowers that includes a clip portion, guide rails, and sub-cavities, allowing for the installation of single or dual battery packs, ensuring compatibility and ease of switching between power configurations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If the battery pack supporting member is integrated with the main body, then the structural stability is improved, but the adaptability to different battery pack configurations deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The battery pack supporting member is divided into a detachable mounting portion and a main supporting structure. The mounting portion can be separated from and reattached to the main body, allowing different configurations (single or dual battery packs) while maintaining structural stability when assembled.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting portion transitions from a fixed integrated state to a detachable state, enabling dynamic reconfiguration. This allows the blower to adapt between single battery pack mode and dual battery pack mode by simply attaching or detaching the mounting portion, resolving the contradiction between stability and adaptability.
2Power
If a single battery pack providing high power is used, then the power output is improved, but the structural size increases
Solution Approach 1:
Two smaller battery packs are combined in the mounting portion to achieve the same power output as a single large battery pack. This merging approach provides equivalent power while reducing the overall structural size and improving balance distribution.
3Duration of action of moving object
If dual battery packs are installed in series or parallel, then the runtime is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting portion is designed with universal compatibility to accommodate different battery pack configurations (single or dual). The same mounting structure supports both series and parallel configurations through adaptable electrical connections, reducing device complexity while enabling extended runtime options.

AI summary
The invention provides a blower. The blower includes: a main body extending in a longitudinal direction, a battery pack supporting member arranged on the main body, and a battery pack arranged on the battery pack supporting member, the battery pack supporting member is separable with respect to the main body, which includes a body forming a battery pack receiving portion and a mounting portion being coupled with the main body, the battery pack supporting member and the battery pack are detachably coupled to the main body. According to the blower of the invention, the battery pack supporting member is engaged with the main body, and a single battery pack or a dual battery packs can be installed by installing battery pack supporting members with different structures on the main body of the blower, which facilitates the switching between the single battery pack and the dual battery packs.
