Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple independent string lights are connected to different power supplies, then each light can function independently, but the power cord distribution becomes messy and indoor cleanliness is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple independent power supplies into a single integrated power supply unit that can power multiple string lights simultaneously. The power supply is designed with multiple output interfaces, allowing several light strings to be connected to one centralized power source, thereby eliminating the mess of multiple separate power cords while maintaining independent light functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The power supply unit is designed with multi-functionality, serving as a universal power source for multiple different string lights. It includes multiple connection interfaces and can accommodate various light string configurations, making a single power supply capable of replacing multiple individual power supplies.
2Productivity
If multiple power supplies are used for different string lights, then each light can be powered, but the time required to organize power cords increases
Solution Approach 1:
By merging multiple power supply functions into one integrated unit with multiple outputs, the patent reduces the number of separate power cords that need to be managed. Users only need to organize and manage a single power supply unit instead of multiple separate power supplies, significantly reducing the time and effort required for cord organization during setup.
3Productivity
If multiple power cords are distributed throughout the indoor environment, then multiple lights can be powered, but indoor cleanliness is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent consolidates multiple power cords into a single integrated power supply unit, dramatically reducing the visual clutter and cord distribution throughout the indoor space. This single unit can be placed in one location, eliminating the need for multiple power cords to be scattered across the room, thereby maintaining indoor cleanliness and aesthetic appearance.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the power supply function from multiple separate locations and consolidates it into one centralized unit. By taking out the individual power supplies from various locations and combining them into a single integrated unit with multiple outputs, the harmful visual effect of scattered power cords is eliminated while the lighting decoration capability is preserved.
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 stand connects multiple lights with one power cord, reducing cord mess and organizing time, enhancing indoor cleanliness and providing a stable, efficient power connection.
Implementation Method 1
The connection block is inserted into the connection slot to connect the first terminal with the second terminal. The first metal sheet is arranged on a side wall of the connection slot. The second metal sheet is exposed along the notch to an outer surface of the connection block.
Data Source
AI summary
A Christmas tree string lights stand includes a first bracket and a second bracket. The first bracket is provided with at least one first terminal, and the second bracket is provided with at least one second terminal. One first terminal is provided with a first metal sheet, and one second terminal is provided with a second metal sheet. The first metal sheet is connected to a first wire extending to an outside of the first terminal, the second metal sheet is connected to a second wire extending to an outside of the second terminal. The first wire is provided with a first interface and a second interface, and the second wire is provided with a third interface. The first terminal is plugged into the second terminal so that the first metal sheet is in contact with the second metal sheet.
