Transport Device With Grid-Mounted Angular Securing Means
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Transport devices fail to securely hold objects while allowing for easy and correct removal, as existing solutions lack flexibility and adaptability in securing and arranging objects effectively.
Innovation Solution
The transport device employs adjustable holding or securing means, such as angular, U-shaped, and C-shaped components with buffers and connecting parts, which can be easily attached and detached, providing stable support and allowing for optimal placement and easy removal of objects.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If fixed holding devices are used to securely hold objects, then object security is improved, but flexibility and ease of adjustment deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The holding device is divided into multiple independent holding elements (clamps, hooks, brackets) that can be individually positioned and adjusted on the support plate's mounting grid, allowing flexible configuration while maintaining secure holding through each element's dedicated engagement mechanism
Solution Approach 2:
The holding devices incorporate adjustable and repositionable components that can be dynamically configured at different locations on the support plate, enabling adaptation to various object sizes and shapes while maintaining secure holding through adjustable engagement points
2Reliability
If multiple fixed holding devices are installed to secure objects, then holding security is improved, but device complexity and installation difficulty worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The support plate integrates a universal mounting grid system with standardized openings and threaded holes that accommodate various types of holding devices (clamps, hooks, brackets, straps), allowing multiple holding functions to be achieved through a single standardized interface rather than requiring different fixed structures for each holding type
Solution Approach 2:
The support plate is pre-equipped with a grid pattern of openings and threaded holes at regular intervals, providing pre-determined mounting locations that simplify the installation process by eliminating the need for custom positioning and drilling during setup
3Productivity
If objects are arranged closely to maximize space utilization, then productivity is improved, but ease of removal and correct ordering deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The support plate divides the loading area into multiple discrete mounting positions using the grid pattern, allowing objects to be arranged in an organized, segmented manner that maximizes space utilization while maintaining clear separation and identification of each object's location for easy removal in correct order

AI summary
The transport unit comprises a support plate (1) under which several rollers, feet, forklift retainers, or the like are arranged. Several perforations (2) and/or threaded holes are arranged in the region of the side edges of the support plate sidewalls, such that the perforations project downwards. The perforations and/or the threaded holes are arranged in the form of a predetermined grid for attaching a securing unit (6) used for releasably securing the articles. The securing unit is formed in angular shape.
