Mounting base, connecting base, and child containment device
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Child containment devices face issues with bulky and costly designs due to multiple mounting bases for carrier accessories, which hinder accessory installation and lead to storage challenges, resulting in potential loss of mounting bases.
Innovation Solution
A child containment device with a storage basket positioned outside the containment body's side face, using connecting members that are lower than the top edge, allowing for simultaneous connection of multiple carrier accessories via a common mounting base, reducing the number of mounting bases and enhancing storage convenience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the storage basket is attached to the top edge of the child containment device, then the storage basket is easily accessible, but it hinders the installation of child carrier accessories
Solution Approach 1:
The storage basket is repositioned from the top edge to the outer side of the containment body, changing its spatial dimension. This dimensional shift allows the storage basket to occupy side space rather than top space, enabling carrier accessories to be installed on the top edge without interference while maintaining storage accessibility
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple carrier accessories are equipped with separate mounting bases, then each accessory can be independently installed, but the overall product becomes bulky and costly
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple carrier accessories are merged to share a common mounting base. The mounting base is designed with multiple connecting members that can simultaneously connect to multiple accessories, reducing the total number of mounting bases from multiple individual bases to a single shared base, thereby simplifying the overall structure and reducing cost
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting base is designed with multi-functionality to serve multiple carrier accessories simultaneously. The connecting members on the mounting base can connect to different types of accessories (storage baskets, changing tables, sleeping baskets), allowing one mounting base to perform the function of multiple separate mounting bases
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple mounting bases are used for carrier accessories, then each accessory has its own mounting base, but storage and organization become difficult leading to potential loss
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple separate mounting bases are merged into a single integrated mounting base that can accommodate multiple accessories. This consolidation eliminates the need to store and manage multiple separate mounting bases, as only one unified base needs to be kept and maintained
