Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Duration of action of stationary object

If the main body is designed to be reusable with a certain service life requirement, then the device can be used multiple times, but condensed aerosol may permeate into the main body causing damage and reducing service life

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice life of main bodyVSAvoidcondensed aerosol permeation damage
Core Design Contradiction:
Duration of action of stationary objectVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The starting passage acts as an intermediary structure between the airflow passage and the puff sensor. It includes a receiving groove that captures condensed aerosol before it can reach the puff sensor and other sensitive components in the main body, thus protecting them from damage while allowing the main body to remain reusable

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The harmful condensed aerosol is extracted from the airflow path by the receiving groove in the starting passage. The groove captures and isolates the condensed aerosol, preventing it from permeating into the main body and damaging internal components

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

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 receiving groove effectively captures condensed aerosol, extending the service life of the main body by isolating it from the power supply and other sensitive elements.

AI summary

The present invention relates to an electronic atomizing device including an atomizing assembly and a puff sensor electrically connected with the atomizing assembly. An air passage fluidly connected to the atomizing assembly and a starting passage fluidly connected between the airflow passage and the puff sensor are defined in the electronic atomizing device. The starting passage defines a receiving groove for receiving a condensed aerosol. The condensed aerosol is received by the receiving groove when flowing into the starting passage, and is prevented from flowing into a main body to cause damage to elements such as the power supply, the puff sensor and a PCB therein, thereby extending the service life of the main body.
