Wall Mount Pin Layout for Thin-Wall Electronic Attachment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional attachment devices struggle to securely attach electronic devices to thin walls without penetrating them, requiring additional support from pillars, and alignment in a horizontal direction is challenging without specialized tools.
Innovation Solution
An attachment device with a base and pins arranged at a predetermined angle to distribute load across the wall thickness, combined with a sheet for aligning and securing multiple devices horizontally, allowing secure attachment without penetrating the wall and facilitating alignment without a level.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If pins are arranged perpendicular to the wall surface, then the attachment device can be secured to the wall, but it cannot securely attach to thin walls without penetrating them
Solution Approach 1:
The pin holes are arranged at a predetermined angle (e.g., 45 degrees) relative to the securing surface, changing the insertion direction from perpendicular to oblique. This dimensional change allows pins to engage with wall pillars without penetrating through thin wall surfaces, resolving the contradiction between attachment security and wall penetration.
2Reliability
If conventional attachment devices are used, then devices can be mounted on walls with pillars, but additional support from pillars is required and cannot be used on thin walls
Solution Approach 1:
By arranging pin holes at an oblique angle rather than perpendicular to the wall surface, the attachment device can engage with wall pillars in thin walls without requiring additional support structures. This angular arrangement allows the pins to reach and secure to pillars embedded within the wall thickness, enabling mounting on various wall types including thin walls.
3Manufacturing precision
If alignment tools such as levels are used, then horizontal alignment can be achieved, but specialized tools are required and alignment becomes complex
Solution Approach 1:
The sheet itself serves as the alignment tool through its geometric design. The symmetry axis and orthogonal axis with positioned openings provide built-in horizontal and vertical reference lines, eliminating the need for external alignment tools like levels. Users can directly align the sheet's axes with the wall to achieve precise horizontal positioning of multiple devices.
4Ease of operation
If multiple attachment devices are mounted without alignment aids, then mounting is simpler, but horizontal alignment in the direction of the wall becomes challenging
Solution Approach 1:
The sheet acts as an intermediary tool that bridges the gap between simple mounting and precise alignment. By providing a symmetric structure with marked axes and positioned openings, the sheet guides users to achieve accurate horizontal alignment of multiple attachment devices while maintaining operational simplicity.
