Support Device Locking Mechanism Prevents Goods Tilting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wearing devices for recording goods often experience downtimes and goods are lost or damaged due to tilting issues between the support wall and closure agents during release.
Innovation Solution
A wearing device with a locking mechanism featuring at least one closure agent that can be tied to the support wall in the off-state, allowing for movement relative to the support wall, thus preventing goods from tilting out.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the closure device has two closing means attached to the carrying wall for reversibly connecting the front wall to the rear wall, then the carrying device can securely hold goods in the closed state, but goods of large dimensions can become wedged between the carrying wall and the closing means during release
Solution Approach 1:
The closure means are designed to be movable relative to the carrying wall in the open state, allowing them to dynamically adjust their position and avoid rigid contact with goods during the release process. This dynamic capability prevents goods from becoming wedged while maintaining secure closure when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The closure device is divided into separate closing means that can be independently positioned and moved. This segmentation allows each closing means to be optimally positioned to avoid interfering with goods of large dimensions while maintaining effective closure functionality.
2Ease of manufacture
If the closing means are fixed to the carrying wall, then the structure is simple and robust, but goods can fall out far from the intended unloading location and be lost or damaged
Solution Approach 1:
The closing means are designed with movement capability relative to the carrying wall, transitioning from a fixed rigid structure to a dynamic adjustable structure. This allows the closing means to be positioned optimally during release to ensure goods fall out at the intended location rather than becoming wedged or falling uncontrollably.
3Volume of moving object
If the closing means are positioned close to the carrying wall, then the closure is compact, but goods of large dimensions can tilt between the carrying wall and closing means
Solution Approach 1:
The closing means are designed to be movable relative to the carrying wall, allowing them to dynamically adjust their distance from the wall based on the state (closed or open). In the open state, they can be positioned at a distance to prevent goods tilting, while maintaining compact closure when needed.

AI summary
The invention relates to a support device (1) for receiving goods (2), comprising a support wall (8) with a front wall (10) and a rear wall (11) and a locking device (9) with at least one locking element (22) for reversibly connecting the front wall (10) to the rear wall (11) in a closed state (13). The support wall (8) can be arranged between the closed state (13) and an open state, and in the closed state (13) it at least partially limits a carrying volume (15) for receiving the goods (2) to the front, bottom, and rear, while in the open state it opens the carrying volume (15) downwards. The at least one locking element (22) can be arranged at a distance from the support wall (8) in the open state.
