Spring-Locked Water Bottle Holder for Motorcycle Vibration Stability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing motorcycle water bottle holders are neither stable nor aesthetically pleasing, and they fail to prevent water bottles from falling off during vibrations, causing inconvenience to riders.
Innovation Solution
An automatic locking water bottle holder with a spring, fixed arm, and movable plate mechanism that securely locks the bottle by rotating the fixed arm under spring action, ensuring stability and aesthetic appeal.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a rigid fixed arm is used to hold the water bottle, then the structure is simple, but the water bottle cannot be securely held during vibration
Solution Approach 1:
The fixed arm is designed to be rotatable rather than rigidly fixed, allowing it to dynamically adjust and lock onto the water bottle. The spring provides continuous pressure to maintain the locking position, ensuring the bottle remains secure during vibration while allowing easy installation and removal.
Solution Approach 2:
The holder is divided into multiple functional components: the rotatable fixed arm, the spring mechanism, and the locking structure. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, achieving reliable bottle holding through coordinated action rather than a single complex rigid structure.
2Reliability
If a rotatable fixed arm with spring is used to lock the water bottle, then the holding stability is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The spring automatically applies pressure to the rotatable fixed arm, causing it to self-lock onto the water bottle without requiring additional locking mechanisms or complex control systems. The system uses the bottle's own presence to trigger the locking action, simplifying the overall structure while maintaining reliability.
3Reliability
If the fixed arm is rotatably connected to the water bottle main frame, then the water bottle can be securely locked, but the manufacturing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The rotatable connection between the fixed arm and water bottle main frame uses simple hinge joints that are easy to manufacture and assemble. The dynamic locking mechanism relies on basic mechanical principles of rotation and spring pressure, avoiding complex fastening systems while achieving reliable bottle securing.
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
The mechanism provides a stable and visually appealing solution that prevents water bottles from falling off due to vibrations, enhancing user convenience.
Implementation Method 1
the water bottle main frame is rotatably connected to the fixed arm through the spring
Implementation Method 2
The fixed arm tightly presses the water bottle under an action of the spring
Implementation Method 3
the movable plate drives the fixed arm to rotate upward
Implementation Method 4
an inner side of the water bottle main holder is provided with a sealing cover plate and a plurality of first anti-slip silicone pads

AI summary
An automatic locking water bottle holder is provided, which includes a water bottle main frame, an installation adapter plate, a spring, a fixed arm, and a movable plate. The installation adapter plate is provided on the water bottle main frame, and the water bottle main frame is rotatably connected to the fixed arm through the spring. One end of the fixed arm is rotatably connected to the movable plate, the water bottle main frame and the movable plate are arranged parallel to each other. The present disclosure fixes a water bottle on the water bottle main frame by providing the spring, the fixed arm, and the movable plate that are cooperated with each other, which is both stable and beautiful, and can avoid a phenomenon of the water bottle falling off due to vibration, rendering it to be more convenient to use.
