Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If air flows in one direction from front to rear through the filter core, then the filter structure is simple, but the deodorizing efficiency is reduced due to limited airflow path
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from traditional unidirectional (one-dimensional) airflow through the filter core to multi-directional (three-dimensional) airflow by creating chambers with partition walls that allow air to flow in multiple directions including left-right, up-down, and front-rear directions, thereby increasing the airflow path and contact area with deodorizing agents without significantly complicating the overall filter structure
2Reliability
If the filter core is filled with deodorizing agent, then deodorizing function is provided, but pressure loss increases due to restricted airflow
Solution Approach 1:
The filter core is segmented into multiple chambers by partition walls, with each chamber containing deodorizing agent. Open holes are provided in the partition walls to allow air to flow between adjacent chambers. This segmentation allows air to take multiple flow paths through the deodorizing agents, increasing contact time and deodorizing efficiency while distributing airflow to reduce pressure loss compared to a single dense filling structure

This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enhances airflow performance, reduces pressure loss, and increases contact time between air and deodorizing agents, thereby improving deodorizing efficiency and reducing noise.
Implementation Method 1
a deodorizing filter is a filter that removes odor components in the air, and is formed by filling a core of the filter with a deodorizing agent such as activated carbon or zeolite, which has excellent ability to adsorb odor components

AI summary
The present invention relates to a filter core for deodorizing agent filling and a deodorizing filter employing the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a filter core for deodorizing agent filling and a deodorizing filter employing the same, in which an airflow path to be formed in multiple directions thus enhancing the airflow performance and improving the deodorizing efficiency. Accordingly, airflow can be generated in various directions so that airflow can efficiently flow and the pressure loss due to airflow can be reduced, thereby improving the deodorizing performance. In addition, the path through which the odor components are removed while air passes through the deodorizing agent is increased, thereby increasing a time that air is in contact with the deodorizing agent and improving the deodorizing efficiency.
