Description:
We want a lockable dog leads clip design for manufacturing. The dog leads are attached by the clips attached to the D-ring of the dog collar. There are many locking mechanisms in the market e.g. carabiner, twist-to-lock... We need a unique design that is differentiated from the market. It needs to use single-handedly and is easy to use for dog owners.
Wants:
1) One-handed use2) Lockable clip
3) Easy to lock / unlock
4) Good for mass production
5) The CAD format has to be 3D printed. We will test the feasibility of the design with 3D printers
6) It should be a a unique locking mechanism that cannot be the same as the current mechanism like a carabiner, twist-to-lock...
6) The design should not infringe on an existing patent
Additional Information
++ IMPORTANT ++To further explain the lock/unlock feature, it needs to meet below requirements:
1) Quick lock - to attach and lock the dog lead to D-ring with a locking mechanism quickly and easily
2) Manual permanent lock - to securely lock for the above and avoid any chance of loosening the lock with an additional lock mechanism
This design will be used by a manufacturer to create a prototype from it. Firstly we will test potential entries with 3D printers. So 3D files need to be submitted in STL and STEP format,
First place will continue working with us on the design including full hardware design for manufacturing / mass production, and other renderings of the design along with the inside mechanism.
The material of the hardware needed to be produced in metal in order to withstand below-quality test.
**The hardware needs to withstand several quality tests e.g. sudden impact test for the leash is about 170kg for large breed dogs. The design must be strong enough to withstand the weight.***

To all contestants, thank you for your effort in this contest and we have received many entries which are out of our expectation. Apologies for our late response, it took a while for our internal discussion to select the winners.

To all contestants, thank you for your interest in this contest. Please carefully read the design requirement before submission. All designs need to be a "LOCKABLE" safety clip for "DOD LEAD", hence it should be connected to a square ring for dog lead. There should be a "LOCKABLE" clip to lock and unlock easily. Many of the design summited earlier isn't lockable. it is simply a clip, not a lockable clip.
Hi Mitel, mistakenly the same concept got submitted twice, please consider the
. Let me know if anything.

Price point of manufacturing? Materials of final product?
Hello Sir,
Please check the attachment file.
Please check the attachment file.
Hi Mitel, just submitted a concept, kindly go through it and share your feedback.
We don't want any of those styles you shared. It is commonly found in the market and that is not innovative. We want a unique locking mechanism which is differentiated from the current design in the market.
If you have picture or sketch for ease to selection so share here.
Hi, Mr. Mitel. I hope you are well. I want to ask you, which type of lockable dog leads you like from the picture Wich I share so that I can do better and modified design for you according your requirement? Because everyone will get help from internet to design your unique product.
Yes we expect it is for large breeds too.
Do you expect large breeds to be able to use it, i.e. strong pulling force?

Motion sensor
This project is to design the housing for a motion detector for commercial office buildings. it should be approximately 2.5-3.0 inch circle and the body should be no more than 1.0 inch thick. the circle can be bigger if the edges sweep out to with a nice curve back to the ceiling surface. it will mount to a standard t-bar ceiling grid. (the kind of ceiling with the drop in tiles) it should mount in the corner of a light fixture with a portion of the "top" or up facing side exposed to the light fixture. and have a window on the top that looks up at the light... (for a light sensor) the window shall be rectangle and dimensions are: 33.0×10.8mm. the face which points to the room shall have a PIR lens (like this one http://www.jvs.de/Carclo_Fresnel/Drawings/PF68_12076_Drawing.pdf i'd like to receive drawings that are 3d printer ready. ease of mass production and tooling should be considered. drawings should also be open for editing by our team. Our team will add the holders, screws, clips, etc for the Electronics inside. the mounting method could be a small piece of spring steel or plastic.

3D design for a lovely four-leafs clover keyholder
我在寻找幸运三叶草客的一个模型y holder that would just make me and anyone else fall in love with. If selected it would be an exclusive design. I just need the design of the clover (not the keyring, chain, etc.). I have something very specific in mind. Of course, should be so that it can be realistically produced (technical characteristic of the design - not necessarily the file/program yet). I am looking for something kind of full body, rounded shapes, if leafs kind of remind of a hearth even better, but not main. It really just should look: that's the one. I am attaching a pic of similar objects, just to give you a sense of the full body, roundness ...
Leather bracelet design
Hello I need to design a stylish and interesting leather bracelets or leather and steel bracelets with the emphasize on a leather. I will attach some pictures with the similar items to what I want. It should be original and elegant. If I like the design, we will develop further relationship, as I will be ordering design continuously. I am looking forward for someone, who is passionate about leather jewelry.
Alfred's Mic's Design Contest
Alfred's Microphones wants to create the worlds first Modular Microphone. The goal is to create a condenser microphone with interchangeable capsules and circuitry for different studio recording applications. Design requirements: 1. Capsule/ head piece must be removable. 2. Circuitry must be removable. 3. All removable parts must be easy and quick to assemble. 3. All removable components must be lockable onto the microphone body for stability and durability. 4. standard male XLR connection for base 5.Circuitry isn't being designed here, just the process to easily interchange the interior circuitry and head piece/capsule without any rewiring involved for the microphone user.
Dwarven Forge Bracelet
一个手镯的设计来补充我们的长期存在line of Dungeons and Dragons/fantasy rpg terrain. Please view our website -- dwarvenforge.com -- to develop a sense for our product. You can also look at our recent Kickstarter campaign -- http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1745470388/1826778276?token=2a7841d2 (see "Game Tiles" on kickstarter.com). I'd start with a bangle, probably with one main charm, a small crystal and a small charm with our logo -- kind of like "Alex & Ani" level of complexity, but for gamers. The main charm should probably be metal. The bracelets are for women, gamers or partners of gamers.
