Problem
Existing methods for removing skirting boards are inefficient, complicated, and often damage the wall, as they rely on manual prying with tools like hammers and pry bars.
Innovation Solution
A tool specifically designed for removing skirting boards, featuring a prying plate main body with a connection plate, engagement plate, and prying plate, along with a handle and rotating structure, allowing for safe and efficient prying open of the skirting board without damaging the wall.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual knocking and prying with hammer and pry bar are used, then the skirting board can be removed, but the wall surface is damaged and work efficiency is low
Solution Approach 1:
The tool divides the removal function into distinct components: the prying plate for insertion into the gap, the connection plate for structural support, and the abutting plate for wall contact. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function efficiently, enabling rapid removal without wall damage.
Solution Approach 2:
The abutting plate serves as an intermediary element that contacts the wall surface, distributing the prying forces evenly across the wall area. This prevents concentrated forces that would cause damage, while still enabling effective skirting board removal through the prying plate.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If gentle knocking is used to open connection positions, then wall damage is minimized, but the operation becomes very complicated and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The tool merges multiple functions into a single integrated device: the striking part for initial impact, the prying plate for gap insertion, and the abutting plate for wall support all combine in one tool. This eliminates the need for multiple separate operations and tools, simplifying the overall process while protecting the wall.
Solution Approach 2:
The prying plate is pre-formed with the correct geometry and rigidity to fit into the skirting board gap. The rotating structure is pre-configured to enable smooth transition from insertion to prying motion, eliminating the need for complex manual manipulation during the removal process.
3Productivity
If a specialized prying tool is designed, then work efficiency is enhanced and wall damage is prevented, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The tool incorporates a rotating structure that allows dynamic adjustment of the prying plate angle relative to the connection plate. This enables the tool to adapt to different skirting board configurations and gap sizes, improving versatility and efficiency without requiring multiple specialized tools for different scenarios.
Solution Approach 2:
The integrated design with multiple functional components (striking part, prying plate, abutting plate, rotating structure) allows the single tool to handle various removal scenarios - from initial gap creation to final skirting board extraction - making it universally applicable while maintaining structural efficiency.
