Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional mounting brackets are used, then installation is simple, but the adjustable distance range is limited and installation flexibility is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting bracket is divided into multiple telescopic rod components, each consisting of nested segments that can independently extend and retract. This segmentation allows the bracket to achieve variable lengths and configurations, providing large adjustable distance range while maintaining a compact form when retracted.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting bracket incorporates telescopic rod components with movable joints and sliding mechanisms that enable dynamic adjustment of the bracket's length and shape. This dynamic structure allows the bracket to adapt to different installation positions and ceiling conditions, transforming from a static to a dynamically adjustable system.
2Productivity
If fixed-position mounting brackets are used, then installation is straightforward, but installation efficiency is low and installation time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The telescopic rod components enable the mounting bracket to be quickly adjusted to different positions and configurations during installation. This dynamic adjustability eliminates the need for custom fabrication or complex modifications, allowing installers to rapidly adapt the bracket to various ceiling conditions and ventilator positions, thereby improving installation efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting bracket with telescopic rod components can be used in multiple scenarios including new house construction, old house renovation, and various ceiling types. The universal design with adjustable length and configuration reduces the need for different bracket types, simplifying the installation process and reducing installation time across diverse applications.
3Adaptability or versatility
If traditional mounting brackets are used, then fixation is achieved, but installation cost increases due to multiple bracket types needed
Solution Approach 1:
The telescopic rod mounting bracket serves as a universal solution that can replace multiple specialized bracket types. By providing adjustable length and configuration, a single bracket design can accommodate various installation positions, ceiling types, and ventilator models, thereby reducing the variety of components needed and lowering overall installation costs.
Solution Approach 2:
The telescopic rod components use a nested structure where smaller rod segments are housed within larger ones. This nesting mechanism allows the bracket to achieve extended reach and adjustable positioning while maintaining a compact storage size, eliminating the need for multiple bracket lengths and reducing inventory and installation costs.

Implementation Method 1
the two folding rod components are unfolded to stretch the two telescoping rod components such that the two telescoping rod components and the two folding rod components form a mounting hole
Implementation Method 2
the two folding rod components are folded to drive the two telescoping rod components to withdraw
Implementation Method 3
each one of the sliding rods is assembled in a sliding way on the outer side of each corresponding one of the first telescoping rods and on the outer side of each corresponding one of the second telescoping rods

AI summary
The present invention discloses a ventilator mounting bracket, belonging to device installation brackets. Existing ventilator mounting brackets are smaller in adjustable distance range, difficult in installation and fixation and low in efficiency. The ventilator mounting bracket of the present invention is provided with two telescoping rod components which can extend and shorten and two folding rod components which are connected between the two telescoping rod components and can be folded and unfolded; the two folding rod components are unfolded to stretch the two telescoping rod components such that the two telescoping rod components and the two folding rod components form a mounting hole for mounting a ventilator; the two folding components are folded to withdraw the two telescoping rod components for packaging and transportation; moreover, the two ends of each one of the two telescoping rod components can be fixed at corresponding fixed parts by adjusting the length of the telescoping rod components. The mounting bracket can be conveniently and efficiently installed in new and hold houses, has a relatively large adjustable distance range, and can ensure that ventilators are installed in any position and reduce the installation time and installation cost of the ventilators.
