Solution Overview

Problem

Existing travel bags lack integrated functionality for multi-scenario use, including stable clothing hanging and privacy changing, often requiring additional accessories and suffering from complex structures that reduce portability and applicability.

Innovation Solution

A travel bag with a telescopic support structure and clothing hanging rack, featuring a latching mechanism in the upper bag body and a limiting mechanism in the lower bag body, incorporating components like a case support rod, telescopic upright rod, crossbar assembly, and extension rod for versatile configurations.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional travel bags are used, then basic storage function is provided, but clothing hanging and changing functions are missing

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefunctional versatilityVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines the travel bag with a telescopic support structure and clothing hanging rack into a single integrated system. The support structure includes telescopic rods that can be extended to form a stable framework for hanging clothes, merging storage and clothing management functions into one device, thereby resolving the contradiction between functional versatility and structure complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The travel bag is designed with multi-functionality to serve multiple purposes: it provides basic storage space, can be configured to support a telescopic framework for clothing hanging, and can be used as a changing station. This universal design allows a single device to address diverse travel needs without requiring multiple separate items.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If additional accessories like hangers or portable changing tents are carried, then clothing hanging and changing functions are achieved, but portability is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescenario adaptabilityVSAvoidtotal weight
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSWeight of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent integrates the telescopic support structure and clothing hanging rack directly into the travel bag, eliminating the need to carry separate accessories like hangers or portable changing tents. The telescopic rods can be quickly deployed from the bag to form a stable framework, providing clothing hanging and changing functions without adding external accessories, thus maintaining portability while achieving scenario adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Stability of the object's composition

If complex structures like multi-buckle folding mechanisms are used, then supporting structures can be assembled, but switching configurations becomes cumbersome

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure stabilityVSAvoidconfiguration switching ease
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs a telescopic support structure that can be dynamically adjusted between different configurations. The telescopic rods can be quickly extended or retracted, and the support framework can be assembled or disassembled with minimal steps, allowing users to switch between different usage scenarios (storage mode, clothing hanging mode, changing station mode) without the cumbersome multi-buckle mechanisms found in prior art.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

4Device complexity

If thin upright rods are used for hanging structure, then device complexity is reduced, but support stability is insufficient under loads over 2 kg

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure simplicityVSAvoidsupport stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses telescopic rods that can extend to provide sufficient length and structural stability for supporting clothes and forming changing spaces. The telescopic mechanism allows the rods to be extended beyond their collapsed state, providing the necessary length and rigidity to support loads over 2 kg while maintaining a compact form when not in use, thus resolving the contradiction between structure simplicity and support stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

The present invention discloses a travel bag with an integrated telescopic support structure and clothing hanging rack structure, belonging to the field of travel equipment technology. It comprises an upper bag body, a lower bag body, a latching mechanism (inside the upper bag body), a limiting mechanism (inside the lower bag body), and supporting components (inside the lower bag body; including case support rod, telescopic upright rod, crossbar assembly, limit pin, extension rod). Via the above structure, it achieves three configurations: storage, expanded volume, clothes hanging and changing. It integrates the travel bag with the two structures, featuring stable structure and convenient switching, solving existing travel bags' defects of single function and lack of clothing hanging/private changing space.
