2. Problems & Solutions
Designs of the ¡bOxx!
Advantages & Disadvantages
Survey Results
Marketed Designs and Sources
Tasks pending
3. Lunchbox does not maximise space
It is too small
Takes up too much unnecessary space when it is
empty
4. Solution
Multi-compartment Lunchbox
› Different compartments to store different food
at the same time
› Dividing the lunchbox into different
compartments
› Adding detachable compartments
› Not feasible in the end because there were
similar designs in the market.
5. Very tiny hole in which the thread can go through
needle
Hard to thread for many people
6. Solution
Needle Threader
› Help people with poor eyesight or shaky hands
to thread needles
› Idea derived from an instrument found in sewing
boxes
› Not feasible in the end because there were
similar designs in the market.
7. It is very troublesome for both students and
teachers to carry many items at once
Some people used containers like plastic bags, but
there were many flaws (e.g. easily torn)
8. Solution
¡bOxx!
› Develop a box which can both store large items
and can easily be kept in a bag when empty
› This concept led us to develop what we called
¡bOxx!
14. Advantages
› Can store many small items or a few long/bulky items
(Versatile)
› Can keep papers straight
› Portable
› Compactable
Disadvantages
› Heavy to carry (If wood is used)
› Troublesome to carry around
15. Survey
Some Comments on Design:
› If you add a handle, it would be easier to
transport and carry
› Have Velcro at the bottom left corner of the box
(applicable to both designs) so the side of wood
which would be placed there in the first diagram
can stick to it
› Might be hard to make without professional help
16. Survey
Some Comments on Usage:
› Large for holding daily items
› Should be good but I think there are similar boxes made
before
17. Survey
Some Comments on Materials:
› Wood is heavy; try to think of another material to use
› Make the material plastic, with thick cloth on the inside
› Try to make it hard/sturdy
18. Survey
Some Comments on Folding Process:
› Hinge the folds
› Won't you need space to fold the folder?
› Are you sure it works? It might work in 2D, but might not in
3D; have you considered the sides of the box yet?
19. Commercially available designs
A box which can be extended to place the item in
and compacted to seal it. However, this means
that the items have to fit in that space and if the
items are larger there would be a gap.
A box that can be compacted till it is flat.
However, our design can still carry items when
compacted while this cannot.
20. Source materials
Obtain help to construct ¡bOxx!
Query if there are any flaws, and correct
Again, final query for flaws
21. Tasks Pending: Improvements
We are thinking of adding a handle for easy of
transportation and carrying.
Also, we consider using multiple layers of plastic to
make it durable and lightweight.
One of the people who took the survey suggested
thick cloth inside and we are looking into that as
well.
