Shipping component and electronic device
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
During the transportation of electronic devices, removable parts are often not properly secured, leading to potential damage and malfunction due to improper handling, as users may neglect to remove transportation components, resulting in forced separation of parts, increased noise, and risk of damage to the device.
Innovation Solution
A shipping component comprising a locking component, a wire clamping component, and a fixing component is used to securely connect and limit the distance between fixed and removable components, ensuring the removable part is fixed in place and preventing accidental electrification of cables during transport.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the removable component is not fixed during transportation, then the device structure remains simple and easy to assemble, but the removable component may move or detach causing damage and malfunction
Solution Approach 1:
The shipping component is divided into three independent functional modules: a locking component for securing the removable component, a wire clamping component for fixing cables, and a fixing component for maintaining component distance. This segmentation allows each module to perform its specific function independently while keeping the overall structure manageable and systematic.
Solution Approach 2:
The shipping component is pre-assembled with all necessary locking, clamping, and fixing mechanisms before the electronic device is packaged for transportation. This preliminary preparation ensures that when the component is installed, the removable part is immediately secured without requiring additional assembly steps during the shipping preparation phase.
2Ease of operation
If the shipping component is not removed before use, then transportation security is maintained, but the removable component cannot function and may cause forced separation
Solution Approach 1:
The shipping component is designed as a separate, extractable element that is not permanently integrated into the electronic device structure. The locking component can be easily removed from the fixed component, and the wire clamping component can be detached from the cable, allowing complete removal of the shipping component before the device is put into service.
Solution Approach 2:
The shipping component transitions from a static locked state during transportation to a dynamic removable state before use. The locking mechanism is designed to be securely engaged during shipping but easily disengaged when needed, providing dynamic adaptability between the transportation phase and the usage phase of the device.
3Reliability
If the cable is not clamped, then the wire clamping component structure is simpler, but the cable may become loose causing electrification issues
Solution Approach 1:
The wire clamping component applies localized clamping force only at the specific position where the cable needs to be secured. The clamping structure is designed to concentrate the fixing action at the critical point of cable attachment, providing effective cable security without requiring a complex overall structure.

AI summary
An electronic device includes a fixed component, a removable component removably connected to the fixed component, and a cable. The shipping component includes a locking component, a wire clamping component sleeved on the locking component, and a fixing component. The wire clamping component is provided with a wire clamping part for clamping and locking the cable. The locking component may penetrate through the fixed component and be locked and connected to the removable component, and the fixing component may limit the distance between the fixed component and the removable component. The removable component may be locked and connected to the fixed component by the shipping component, the cable of the electronic device is synchronously clamped to the shipping component, and the cable cannot be used and electrified when the shipping component is not removed.
