Aromatherapy Mosquito Trap Airflow Layout for Odor Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mosquito killing lamps do not effectively eliminate the odor emitted by accumulated mosquito corpses and lack aromatherapy functionality, affecting user experience.
Innovation Solution
An aromatherapy mosquito killer with a sequential arrangement of chambers and ducts, utilizing a fan to suck mosquitoes into an aromatherapy box while dissipating the aromatherapy scent, thereby eliminating odors and purifying the air.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If mosquito killing lamps are used to kill mosquitoes without chemical substances, then environmental friendliness and pollution-free killing are achieved, but mosquito corpses accumulate and emit odors causing user discomfort
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the odor-causing element (mosquito corpses) from the system by implementing an automatic discharge mechanism. The collection bin is designed to automatically discharge accumulated mosquito corpses when reaching a certain level, preventing odor accumulation and eliminating the need for manual cleaning, thus resolving the contradiction between effective mosquito killing and user comfort.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements self-service through automatic detection and discharge mechanisms. The collection bin automatically monitors mosquito corpse accumulation and triggers discharge when thresholds are reached, eliminating the need for user intervention in cleaning and maintenance, thereby improving user experience while maintaining effective mosquito control.
2Productivity
If mosquito corpses accumulate in the collection bin, then mosquito killing effectiveness is maintained, but odor emission increases causing discomfort
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the skipping principle by implementing rapid automatic discharge of mosquito corpses when accumulation reaches critical levels. The system quickly removes odor-causing materials through automated mechanisms, preventing prolonged odor emission while maintaining continuous mosquito killing efficiency, thus resolving the contradiction between productivity and harmful factor generation.
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 device efficiently kills mosquitoes and purifies the air by using aromatherapy to eliminate odors from mosquito corpses, enhancing user experience through both functionality and aesthetics.
Implementation Method 1
a fan arranged in the fan chamber
Implementation Method 2
the airflow generated by the fan flows through the mosquito-killing air duct... for sucking in mosquitoes
Implementation Method 3
the smell of the aromatherapy inside the aromatherapy box can dissipate outwardly through the exhaust air duct
Implementation Method 4
the ventilation holes in the side wall of the aromatherapy box are configured to prevent mosquitoes inside the aromatherapy box from passing through
Implementation Method 5
a light module arranged in the light chamber for emitting light outwardly
Implementation Method 6
the mosquito killing lamp utilizes mosquito's habits of phototaxis

AI summary
An aromatherapy mosquito killer includes a shell with a light chamber, a fan chamber and a mosquito killing chamber provided therein, a light module arranged in the light chamber for emitting light outwardly, a fan arranged in the fan chamber, and an aromatherapy box arranged in the mosquito killing chamber for collecting mosquitoes and storing aromatherapy. Airflow holes are defined in top and bottom sides of a chamber wall of the fan chamber. Ventilation holes are defined in a side wall and a top wall of the aromatherapy box. Air inlets and air outlets are defined in the shell. The air inlets, the airflow holes and the ventilation holes in the top wall of the aromatherapy box cooperatively form a mosquito-killing air duct for sucking in mosquitoes; and the ventilation holes in the side wall of the aromatherapy box cooperatively form an exhaust air duct.
