Semiautomatic Slide Case with Hook Mechanism for Card Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mobile phone cases with card-receptible functions are inconvenient as they require separation of the slide cover when using the card, disrupting mobile phone functionality.
Innovation Solution
A semiautomatic slide case design featuring a sliding hook mechanism that allows the slide cover to be semi-automatically opened and closed, integrating the main body and frame case without separation, using elastic springs for smooth operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a card pocket and mobile phone case are coupled together, then card-receptible function is achieved, but the slide cover must be separated when using the card
Solution Approach 1:
The case is divided into three main components: main body, frame case, and slide cover. The slide cover can be independently opened to access the card receiving part while keeping the main body and frame case connected, allowing separate access to card and mobile phone functions without full separation
Solution Approach 2:
The card receiving part is nested within the frame case, which itself is coupled to the main body. This nested structure allows the slide cover to open independently to reveal the card compartment while the protective main body remains attached to the mobile phone
2Ease of operation
If slide cover is detachably coupled to access card, then card accessibility is improved, but mobile phone protection continuity is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The case structure segments the access function into a separate slide cover that can open independently, while the main body remains permanently attached to the mobile phone for continuous protection. The frame case connects these elements, allowing card access without compromising the protective enclosure
Solution Approach 2:
The slide cover is designed with dynamic movement capability - it can slide open for card access and close for protection. This dynamic element is coupled through the frame case to the static main body, creating a system that adapts between open and closed states while maintaining protective function
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
Enhances usability by allowing the card receiving part to be accessed without separating the slide cover, improving convenience and maintaining mobile phone protection.
Implementation Method 1
The sliding hook may include an elastic body having one end connected to the first coupling protrusion and the other end connected to the second coupling protrusion
Implementation Method 2
The first coupling pin may include: a first spring; and a first coupling groove coupled to the sliding hook-type first coupling protrusion, and the second coupling pin may include: a second spring; and a second coupling groove coupled to the sliding hook-type second coupling protrusion
