Solution Overview
Problem
Existing water outlet devices fail to generate effective micro-bubbles at normal temperatures and lack automatic adjustment of air inflow, leading to poor user experience and large bubble formation.
Innovation Solution

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If water temperature is raised to generate micro-bubbles through solubility reduction, then micro-bubble generation effect is improved, but the device cannot generate micro-bubbles under normal temperature conditions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the thermal method (heating water to reduce solubility) with a mechanical method (using flow-induced negative pressure and circulation to吸入 air and create micro-bubbles). This allows micro-bubble generation at normal temperatures by utilizing water flow dynamics rather than temperature changes.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention changes the operating parameters from temperature-dependent to flow-rate-dependent. By adjusting water flow rate through the inlet holes and circulation holes, the system can control air吸入 and micro-bubble generation without relying on temperature changes, enabling operation across a wide temperature range.
2Device complexity
If air inflow amount is not automatically adjusted with water inflow, then device structure is simplified, but user experience deteriorates and large bubbles form instead of micro-bubbles
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically adjusts air inflow based on water flow rate through self-service mechanisms. The circulation holes and inlet holes create negative pressure that automatically吸入 air in proportion to water flow, eliminating the need for manual adjustment or complex control systems while maintaining optimal micro-bubble generation.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention implements a feedback mechanism where water flow rate determines air吸入 rate through the circulation and inlet holes. The negative pressure generated by water flow automatically regulates air intake, creating a self-regulating system that maintains proper air-water ratio for micro-bubble formation without external control.
3Quantity of substance
If air inflow is excessive, then bubble generation is enhanced, but bubble size increases and micro-bubble effect is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides air intake into multiple separate holes (inlet holes and circulation holes) rather than a single large opening. This segmentation allows controlled, distributed air entry that prevents excessive localized air inflow and maintains small, uniform bubble sizes while still achieving sufficient total air intake for effective micro-bubble 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 effectively generates micro-bubble water with automatic air inflow control, producing small, uniform bubbles suitable for thorough cleaning and reducing water impact, enhancing user experience.
Implementation Method 1
because the flow area of the second water inlet hole is larger than that of the first water inlet hole, a certain negative pressure will be generated in the second water inlet hole according to Bernoulli's principle, so that the outside air will pass through the air intake runners and the first chamber in order to be sucked into the second water inlet hole
