Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Decorative lighting products face challenges in concealing functional components that detract from their aesthetic appeal, as existing solutions fail to effectively hide these components while maintaining functionality.
Innovation Solution
An LED lighting device design featuring a base, arched support rod, diffuser group with a dome-shaped wall and through-holes, and a dissipator group with a dissipation plate that matches the dome's shape and holes, concealing the dissipator from view.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Shape
If functional components are made visible for practical purposes, then the device functionality is clear, but the aesthetic appearance is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The dissipation plate is nested within the bell structure, with the plate positioned inside the bell's interior space. The plate's peripheral edge aligns with the bell's inner peripheral edge, creating a nested configuration where the functional dissipation component is hidden within the aesthetic bell structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The bell acts as an intermediary element between the LED light source and the observer. It serves as both a structural support and an aesthetic cover, mediating between the functional requirement of heat dissipation and the aesthetic requirement of concealing functional components.
2Reliability
If the dissipation plate is made visible to show functional components, then heat dissipation function is clear, but the aesthetic appearance is degraded
Solution Approach 1:
The dissipation plate is nested within the bell structure, with the plate positioned inside the bell's interior space. The plate's peripheral edge aligns with the bell's inner peripheral edge, creating a nested configuration where the functional dissipation component is hidden within the aesthetic bell structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The bell is designed with specific local qualities - an opaque or translucent material that allows light transmission while concealing the dissipation plate. The bell's wall thickness and material properties are optimized to provide both aesthetic appearance and functional heat dissipation concealment.
3Shape
If the bell is made opaque to conceal components, then aesthetic appearance is improved, but light transmission is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The bell is designed with specific local qualities - an opaque or translucent material that allows light transmission while concealing the dissipation plate. The bell's wall thickness and material properties are optimized to provide both aesthetic appearance and functional heat dissipation concealment.
Solution Approach 2:
The bell material is selected or treated to have specific optical properties - it may be translucent with specific light transmission characteristics. The material's color, transparency, and light diffusion properties are optimized to balance aesthetic appearance with light transmission requirements.

AI summary
Floor lamps with arch-shaped support rod are provided. Such floor lamps include a cap and a dome-shaped wall projecting from the top of the cap which is provided with a plurality of through-holes. An LED optical group provides a dissipation plate in contact with the dome-shaped wall. The plate has a plurality of holes or open curvilinear recesses along the peripheral edge, arranged substantially to conceal from the observer the dissipation wall.
