Solution Overview

Problem

Existing water bottles made of ceramic or glass are prone to breakage upon collision, while those made of rubber are not suitable for high-temperature liquids, failing to meet the increasing user demands for a safe, reliable, and practical container.

Innovation Solution

An anti-breakage and anti-scald bottle design featuring a plastic jacket sleeved over an inner container, with a soft rubber retainer ring at the bottom and a fixed sleeve at the opening, providing enhanced breakage resistance and heat insulation through the use of a soft rubber ring and a transparent cap with temperature-sensitive ink.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Temperature

If water bottles are made of ceramic or glass, then they are suitable for containing high-temperature liquid, but they are prone to being damaged by collisions or being broken

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehigh-temperature liquid containmentVSAvoidbreakage resistance
Core Design Contradiction:
TemperatureVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs a composite structure consisting of an inner container (ceramic, glass, or purple clay) combined with an outer protective plastic jacket. This composite design allows the inner container to maintain its heat retention properties while the outer plastic jacket provides impact resistance and prevents breakage, thus resolving the contradiction between temperature suitability and breakage resistance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

Solution Approach 2:

The plastic jacket acts as a flexible protective shell surrounding the rigid inner container. This flexible outer layer absorbs collision forces and prevents direct impact on the fragile inner container, enabling the bottle to withstand impacts while the inner container maintains its ability to hold hot liquids

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

2Strength

If water bottles are made of rubber, then they are not prone to being damaged by collisions or being broken, but they are not suitable for containing high-temperature liquid

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebreakage resistanceVSAvoidhigh-temperature liquid containment
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSTemperature

Solution Approach 1:

The bottle is segmented into two distinct functional parts: an inner container made of heat-resistant material (ceramic, glass, or purple clay) for containing high-temperature liquids, and an outer protective jacket made of impact-resistant plastic or rubber for providing breakage resistance. Each material is used where it performs best, resolving the contradiction between temperature suitability and breakage resistance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Strength

If a plastic jacket is arranged outside the inner container, then breakage resistance is improved, but the structure complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebreakage resistanceVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a nested structure where the plastic jacket envelops the inner container in a sleeve-like manner, with the bottom end of the inner container clamped on the soft rubber retainer ring inside the plastic jacket. This nested design provides comprehensive protection while maintaining a compact and relatively simple overall structure that does not require complex assembly mechanisms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Applied Scientific Principles

This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.

Function Achieved in This Case

The design significantly improves breakage resistance and prevents scalding, allowing safe handling of hot liquids, while maintaining attractiveness and practicality.

Implementation Method 1

a soft rubber retainer ring is arranged at the inner bottom of the plastic jacket, and the bottom end of the inner container is clamped on the soft rubber retainer ring... a soft rubber ring is fixedly arranged on the inner surface of the neck of the fixed sleeve and makes contact with the opening of the inner container

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectElasticity: Elasticity

Implementation Method 2

when hot water is contained in the inner container, the plastic jacket can insulate heat, and thus the hands of a user are protected against scalds when the user holds the bottle

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectThermal Insulation: Thermal Insulation

Implementation Method 3

a temperature-sensitive ink layer is printed on the outer surface of the inner container

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectThermochromism: Thermochromism
