Tile Unit With Magnet Sheet And Resin Net
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The high cost and complexity of mounting magnetic bodies onto mosaic tiles make them expensive, limiting their widespread use due to the need for multiple small magnetic components and increased mounting costs.
Innovation Solution
A tile unit comprising a resin net with tiles bonded to its front side and a magnet sheet on the back side, where the resin net interposed between the tiles and the magnet sheet allows for a single magnet sheet to be used across multiple tiles, reducing mounting costs and providing an interesting design appearance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a magnetic body is mounted to each tile piece of mosaic tiles, then the tiles can be attached to an iron plate, but the number of magnetic bodies increases and mounting cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple magnetic bodies are integrated into a single magnet sheet that can be mounted once to support multiple tiles simultaneously. This merging approach maintains the attachment capability for each tile while reducing the total number of mounting operations and associated costs.
Solution Approach 2:
The magnet sheet serves as a universal mounting component that can simultaneously attach multiple tiles to an iron plate. This multi-functional approach replaces the need for individual magnetic bodies on each tile, reducing manufacturing complexity and cost.
2Reliability
If small magnetic bodies are used for each tile piece, then the attachment function is achieved, but the mounting process becomes troublesome and cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The magnet sheet combines multiple magnetic functions into a single operable unit, making the mounting process simpler and less troublesome while maintaining the attachment function for all tiles.
3Reliability
If individual magnetic bodies are mounted on each tile, then attachment is enabled, but the overall expense increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple magnetic components are merged into a single magnet sheet, reducing the quantity of magnetic material needed and lowering overall expenses while maintaining attachment capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The magnet sheet provides a replicated magnetic field across its surface, effectively creating multiple attachment points from a single component, thereby reducing material costs.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This solution reduces the cost of mounting the magnet sheet and provides a less expensive tile unit with a sophisticated design appearance, promoting its wider use by allowing for a single magnet sheet to be used across multiple tiles, thus reducing the overall expense and enhancing aesthetic appeal.
Implementation Method 1
a magnet sheet disposed on a back side of the resin net. In the tile unit, the tiles are bonded and fixed to the magnet sheet
