Car Carpet Perfuming Element With Adjustable Flow Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing car carpets for perfuming passenger compartments have limited fragrance duration, are difficult to recharge, and lack adjustable perfuming options, with powders or granules often dispersing due to wear, leading to ineffective fragrance distribution.
Innovation Solution
A car carpet with a woven support and a containing body that holds a removable perfuming element, featuring a through hole for easy replacement and adjustable perfuming flow control via a cap and disc mechanism, allowing continuous and customizable fragrance release.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Duration of action of moving object
If perfuming powders or granules are inserted under the car door sill threshold, then the car carpet can release fragrance, but the fragrance effectiveness is limited in time and the powders disperse due to wear
Solution Approach 1:
The containing body is divided into separate components: a lower body that receives the perfuming element and a cap that covers it. This segmentation allows the perfuming element to be securely held in place while enabling easy replacement by removing the cap, thus maintaining both containment reliability and ease of maintenance.
Solution Approach 2:
The perfuming element is extracted as a removable component from the containing body. This allows the perfuming element to be taken out and replaced when exhausted, extending the overall duration of fragrance effectiveness without compromising the reliability of containment during use.
2Ease of manufacture
If perfuming treatments are applied to the car carpet, then the car carpet can perfume the passenger compartment, but the efficacy is of limited duration requiring re-treatment
Solution Approach 1:
The perfuming element is designed as a replaceable component with limited lifespan. When exhausted, it is discarded and replaced with a new one, maintaining continuous perfuming effectiveness without requiring complex re-treatment processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The exhausted perfuming element is discarded and replaced with a fresh one. The containing body structure facilitates this discarding and recovering process, ensuring continuous perfuming action without loss of fragrance containment reliability.
3Duration of action of moving object
If a containing body with removable perfuming element is used, then the perfuming action can be continuous, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The containing body is segmented into simple components (lower body and cap) that are easy to assemble and disassemble. This segmentation enables continuous perfuming action through easy replacement of the perfuming element without significantly increasing device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of making the entire containing body removable, only the perfuming element is made removable while the containing body remains fixed. This inversion approach maintains perfuming continuity while minimizing device complexity.
4Adaptability or versatility
If adjusting means are added to control perfuming flow, then the perfuming action becomes adjustable, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The cap incorporates an adjustable element (such as a rotatable disc with variable opening) that allows dynamic control of the perfuming flow. This enables adaptability in perfuming intensity while keeping the overall cap structure relatively simple through the use of a single adjustable component.
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
Enables continuous and adjustable perfuming with easy replacement of perfuming elements, maintaining fragrance intensity and preventing dispersion, providing a comfortable and effective perfuming solution for vehicle compartments.
Implementation Method 1
the presence of one or more fissures allows the perfuming element to disperse the perfume outside the containing body
