Solution Overview

Problem

Existing LED refrigerator lamps are difficult to install and remove due to the use of bolts, nuts, and screws, and their light-emitting angle is fixed, leading to uneven illumination and difficulty in seeing items in corners.

Innovation Solution

A lamp design featuring a light-emitting module, sealing system, and installation component with a buckle and fixing element, allowing for adjustable light-emitting angles and convenient installation, using a sealing system to secure the power cord and a driving module for efficient wiring.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If bolts, nuts and screws with washer are used to fix the LED refrigerator lamp, then the lamp is securely fixed, but the installation and removal process becomes slow and complicated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefixing securityVSAvoidinstallation and removal time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The lamp assembly is divided into separable components: the lamp body with light-emitting module can be independently removed from the refrigerator compartment by simply detaching the buckle, while the mounting bracket remains fixed. This segmentation allows quick installation and removal without dismantling multiple fasteners.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The buckle mechanism provides dynamic fixing - it can be quickly engaged and disengaged to secure or release the lamp. The buckle clamps the mounting bracket to the upright wall and can be rapidly opened for removal, replacing the static, time-consuming bolt-nut-screw assembly with a dynamic quick-release mechanism.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Device complexity

If the light-emitting angle of LED refrigerator lamp is fixed, then the structure is simple, but the illumination becomes uneven and corners remain dark

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural simplicityVSAvoidillumination uniformity
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSIllumination intensity

Solution Approach 1:

The light-emitting module is designed with adjustable orientation - the light source can be rotated or tilted to change the light-emitting angle according to the specific refrigerator compartment geometry. This dynamic adjustability allows optimization of illumination coverage to eliminate dark corners while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The lighting system provides localized adjustment capability - different sections of the light-emitting module can be oriented differently, or the light source can be positioned to direct light specifically toward dark corners or areas requiring enhanced illumination, creating non-uniform light distribution that addresses specific illumination needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Device complexity

If the light source is fixed on one side of the section bar, then the structure is simple, but the illumination coverage is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural simplicityVSAvoidillumination coverage area
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The section bar structure uses asymmetric support plates (first support plate and second support plate at different angles) to mount light sources strategically positioned to cover different areas. This asymmetric arrangement maximizes illumination coverage area while maintaining structural simplicity by using the existing section bar geometry rather than adding symmetric mounting structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #4Asymmetry
