Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the wind-driven plate is fixed in a fixed position, then the mounting structure is simple and stable, but the wind-driven plate cannot be turned over and can only display one color, resulting in single display content and poor decorative effect

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay flexibilityVSAvoidmounting structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting bracket transforms from a fixed static structure to a dynamic adjustable structure by introducing rotatable first connecting pieces and movable second connecting pieces. These components enable the wind-driven plate to rotate around a first direction and flip around a second direction, allowing the plate to display different colors and patterns dynamically rather than being fixed in one position.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting bracket is divided into multiple independent functional components: brackets, first connecting pieces with rotatable mechanisms, and second connecting pieces with movable mechanisms. This segmentation allows each component to perform specific functions (rotation, flipping, positioning) independently, providing flexibility while maintaining structural clarity and ease of assembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If the wind-driven plate is fixed and cannot be turned over, then the mounting structure is simple, but the user cannot create corresponding display patterns according to actual situations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay pattern flexibilityVSAvoidmounting operation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting mechanism enables dynamic adjustment of the wind-driven plate's orientation through rotatable first connecting pieces and movable second connecting pieces. Users can rotate the plate around a first direction and flip it around a second direction to create various display patterns according to actual decorative requirements, transforming the plate from a static single-sided display to a dynamic multi-sided display system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If the wind-driven plate is fixed in one position, then the mounting structure is stable and simple, but the displayed content is single and the decorative effect is not good

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecolor display diversityVSAvoidconnecting pieces structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting bracket incorporates dynamic rotation and flipping mechanisms that allow the wind-driven plate to change its display orientation. The first connecting pieces enable rotation around a first direction, while the second connecting pieces enable flipping around a second direction, allowing multiple colors and patterns on the plate to be displayed sequentially or simultaneously, greatly enhancing color display diversity and decorative effect.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The connecting structure is segmented into distinct rotatable and movable components that can be independently adjusted. This segmentation allows for precise control over the plate's orientation and display angles, enabling diverse color and pattern displays while maintaining a relatively simple and modular structure that is easy to assemble and adjust.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

The present invention discloses a mounting bracket of a wind-driven plate, and relates to the field of decoration. The mounting bracket includes brackets and mounting mechanisms. When the wind-driven plate is required to be turned over, it is only necessary to rotate the first connecting pieces and the second connecting pieces of the mounting mechanisms relative to the brackets in a first direction, and then the wind-driven plate rotates relative to the second connecting pieces around a second direction, so that the wind-driven plate can be turned over and can be hung on the second connecting pieces. According to the present invention, the wind-driven plate can be rotated and turned over through two rotating motions of the wind-driven plate, so high flexibility is achieved, and a user can make corresponding display patterns according to the actual situation, thereby achieving a good display effect.
