Wall Bracket Working Platform Adjustable Width Assembly
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional wall brackets for construction work are not versatile enough to accommodate different installation environments, particularly failing to provide adjustable width for working platforms, which limits their applicability to sites with varying window and door positions or wall widths, and are cumbersome to assemble and disassemble.
Innovation Solution
A wall bracket system with adjustable width working platforms, featuring overlapping and superimposed platforms, a lightweight and easy-to-assemble design, where the working platforms are made of aluminum or steel and include a fastening arrangement with ridges and recesses for adjustability and a rotating fastening mechanism for easy installation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional scaffolds rest on the ground, then they provide stable support for construction work, but they require the ground to be evened out, are slow to assemble and disassemble, and need large area for leg settlement
Solution Approach 1:
The scaffold system is divided into multiple detachable components including wall brackets, working platforms, guard rails, and cross braces that can be independently assembled and disassembled. This segmentation enables rapid assembly by simply connecting pre-fabricated modules together without requiring ground preparation or large settlement areas.
Solution Approach 2:
The wall bracket serves as an intermediary component that transfers the load from the working platform to the wall structure. By anchoring to the wall rather than the ground, the system eliminates the need for ground leveling and large footprints while maintaining stability through the wall-mounted support structure.
2Ease of manufacture
If fixed-size working platforms are used, then the structure is simpler to manufacture, but the applicability to different tasks and installation environments is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The working platform width is made adjustable through a dynamic configuration system where multiple platforms can be connected in series or parallel arrangements. The platform width can be modified by adding or removing individual platform modules, allowing the same basic component set to adapt to different workspace requirements while maintaining manufacturing simplicity through standardized parts.
Solution Approach 2:
The wall bracket system is designed as a universal platform that can accommodate various working platform configurations and sizes. The standardized wall brackets and connection mechanisms can support different platform widths and heights, enabling a single system design to serve multiple construction tasks and environmental conditions.
3Stability of the object's composition
If the working platform width is fixed, then the structure is more stable, but it cannot accommodate different window and door positions or wall width variations
Solution Approach 1:
The working platform is segmented into multiple adjustable modules that can be configured in different arrangements. This segmentation allows the platform width to be adapted to match various wall widths and opening positions while maintaining structural stability through the standardized connection system and wall-mounted support brackets.

AI summary
A wall bracket is provided for facilitating construction work, as a surface for a person or another load. The wall bracket comprises a plurality of support structures (110) to be fastened to a wall in parallel and at a distance from one another and, resting thereon, parallel working platform frames (150) settling at a distance from one another for supporting working platforms (252, 253) comprised by the wall bracket. In the invention, the working platforms are such that the working platform comprises a self-supporting wall (261 to 267, 271 to 277) and that at least an end area of the self-supporting wall is provided with an overlap area (L) for resting on an adjacent working platform.
