Vehicle Taillamp Bracket with Projections for Precise Housing Alignment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle taillamp assemblies lack a secure and precise method for attaching the lamp housing to the vehicle body structure, leading to inconsistent positioning and alignment.
Innovation Solution
A taillamp assembly with an attachment bracket featuring an upright extending portion, upper and lower horizontally extending portions, and projections that securely attach to the vehicle body structure, allowing for precise alignment and installation of the lamp housing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If a traditional taillamp structure integrated into the vehicle body is used, then the structure is simple, but the positioning and alignment of the lamp housing is inconsistent
Solution Approach 1:
The attachment bracket is divided into multiple functional portions: an upright extending portion for vertical positioning, an upper horizontally extending portion for alignment with the vehicle body, and a lower horizontally extending portion for additional support. This segmentation allows each portion to be precisely shaped and positioned independently, achieving consistent lamp housing alignment while maintaining structural simplicity.
2Reliability
If a secure attachment method is implemented with multiple projections and extending portions, then the positioning precision is improved, but the manufacturing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple attachment functions are merged into a single integrated bracket component. The upright extending portion with its first and second projections, along with the upper and lower horizontally extending portions, are combined into one piece that attaches to the vehicle body and supports the lamp housing simultaneously. This merging ensures secure attachment through multiple contact points while simplifying manufacturing compared to using multiple separate components.
