Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If four or more wires are used to form the string light wire, then the string light can be structurally stable, but the structure becomes complex and the cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple wires into a single integrated string light wire structure. Specifically, it integrates the light source, wiring, and support functions into one unified component that can be directly wrapped around trees or branches, eliminating the need for separate multiple-wire assemblies while maintaining structural stability.
2Stability of the object's composition
If four or more wires are used to form the string light wire, then the string light can be structurally stable, but the manufacturing cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple wires into a single integrated string light wire structure. Specifically, it integrates the light source, wiring, and support functions into one unified component that can be directly wrapped around trees or branches, eliminating the need for separate multiple-wire assemblies while maintaining structural stability.
3Stability of the object's composition
If the string light wire is made with multiple wires, then the string light can be structurally stable, but the size and weight increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple wires into a single integrated string light wire structure. Specifically, it integrates the light source, wiring, and support functions into one unified component that can be directly wrapped around trees or branches, eliminating the need for separate multiple-wire assemblies while maintaining structural stability.
4Stability of the object's composition

AI summary
The disclosure relates to the technical field of lights, and discloses an LED string light with a branch-trunk structure, including a power supply assembly and multiple wire groups. A light source assembly is arranged between every two wire groups, and an end of the first wire group is electrically connected to the power supply assembly; every two wire groups are at least partially bent and combined to form a branch-trunk structure used for supporting the light source assembly. The disclosure has the following advantages: 1, the string light in this technical solution is small in overall size, low in weight, easier to install and low in installation difficulty; 2, the light is mainly formed by columnar transparent light beads, such that the internal structure of the light is effectively simplified, and the use cost of the string light is reduced.
