Tiltable Cosmetic Case with Mobile Device Holder
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing cosmetic cases do not efficiently allow users to hold and use a mobile device as a mirror while applying cosmetics, especially with the increasing size of smartphones and consumer demand for screen enlargement.
Innovation Solution
A mobile device-attachable/detachable cosmetic case with a paired palette system that tilts and swivels, allowing for the use of either a mirror or a tray for cosmetics, and a holder to support the device, enabling the mobile device's display to serve as a mirror for cosmetic application.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a traditional cosmetic case is used, then cosmetics can be stored, but the user cannot easily hold a mobile device and use its display as a mirror while applying cosmetics
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the cosmetic case with a mobile device holder into a single integrated unit. The holder portion is designed to securely hold the mobile device while the palette portion contains cosmetics, allowing the user to use the mobile device display as a mirror while applying cosmetics without needing separate items.
Solution Approach 2:
The integrated case serves multiple functions simultaneously: it stores cosmetics in the palette portion, holds the mobile device in the holder portion, and enables the mobile device display to function as a mirror for cosmetic application. This multi-functionality resolves the contradiction by providing both versatility and ease of use.
2Area of moving object
If the mobile device size is increased to provide better display, then the display quality improves, but the device becomes harder to hold and less portable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the mobile device holder with the cosmetic case into a single integrated structure. The holder portion is specifically designed to support larger mobile devices, providing a stable grip that compensates for the increased size and weight, thereby maintaining ease of operation while allowing for larger display areas.
3Reliability
If a separate holder and palette are used, then each component can be optimized, but the overall structure becomes complex and cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the holder and palette into a single integrated case structure. The holder portion and palette portion are combined in one unit, eliminating the need for separate components and reducing overall structural complexity while maintaining the stability and functionality of each individual component.
