Current CBD oil products face challenges in bioavailability due to limited interaction efficiency with the human body, necessitating a method to enhance the efficacy and potency of cannabidiol.

Innovation Solution

A method involving the combination of CBD oil with a carrier oil, followed by heating, filtration to reduce particle size, and application of an energy field using a laser effector to promote electrons from bonding or non-bonding orbitals into anti-bonding orbitals of the CBD molecule, creating nanoparticles for improved absorption.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If CBD oil is extracted and processed using conventional methods (supercritical CO2 extraction, decarboxylation), then CBD oil can be produced for various medical applications, but the bioavailability and interaction efficiency with the human body remains limited

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovebioavailabilityVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the CBD molecule into smaller particles through mechanical breakdown and filtration processes. The CBD oil is processed through multiple filtration stages (60 nanometer filter, 40 nanometer filter) to create ultra-fine particles that can be more easily absorbed by the human body, directly addressing the bioavailability issue while maintaining manufacturability through standard filtration equipment

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies parameter changes by using a laser effector to alter the physical state of CBD particles. The laser energy transforms the CBD from larger molecular structures into smaller, more bioavailable particles through photodisintegration, changing the particle size parameter from micrometer scale to nanometer scale without requiring complex chemical synthesis

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If CBD oil is combined with carrier oils and undergoes extensive heating and mixing processes, then the CBD can be distributed more effectively, but the particle size remains too large for optimal absorption

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedistribution efficiencyVSAvoidparticle size control
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces conventional mechanical homogenization methods with laser-based photodisintegration. Instead of using high-speed mixers or ultrasonic processors that mechanically break down particles, the invention uses laser energy to directly transform the CBD particles into ultra-fine sizes, achieving superior particle size control (less than 60 nanometers) without the limitations of mechanical systems

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension to particle size reduction by using electromagnetic radiation (laser) rather than mechanical force. This dimensional shift from mechanical energy to photonic energy enables precise control over particle size at the nanometer scale, overcoming the limitations of conventional mechanical processing methods

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

3Ease of manufacture

If conventional CBD products use isolates or powders combined with carriers, then the products can be manufactured easily, but the interaction efficiency with the endocannabinoid system is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproduct formulationVSAvoidinteraction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the critical parameter of particle size from the micrometer scale typical of conventional CBD isolates and powders to the nanometer scale (less than 60 nanometers). This parameter change dramatically improves interaction efficiency with the endocannabinoid system while maintaining ease of manufacture through the use of laser processing and standard filtration techniques

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

A method of applying energy to CBD oil is provided. The method may include obtaining CBD oil from a plant, combining the CBD oil with a carrier oil, heating the combination of the CBD oil and carrier oil, mixing the CBD oil and carrier oil, filtering the CBD oil and carrier oil to a size of less than 60 nanometers, and applying an energy field to the CBD oil and carrier oil through a laser effector such that an electron is promoted from a bonding or non-bonding orbital into an empty anti-bonding orbitals of the CBD molecule. The laser effector may be a pink sapphire cut into a 15 equal side faceted crystal, double-stacked in a 2.3 cm cylindrical chamber, or an opulence half dome bubble lens configured to refract the beam.
