Cordless liquid heating device
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing cordless liquid heating devices have an integrated structure for electric and signal connections, making maintenance costly and inefficient as the entire device needs to be replaced when either connection fails.
Innovation Solution
The cordless liquid heating device separates the transmission paths for electric energy and temperature signals, allowing for independent maintenance of components, with separate cordless electric and signal connectors that enable secure and reliable operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If the cordless electric connection part and the cordless signal connection part have an integrated structure, then the device structure is compact and simple, but when one part goes wrong the whole structure must be replaced resulting in high maintenance cost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the integrated connection structure into separate functional modules: the cordless electric connection part (power transmission) and the cordless signal connection part (signal transmission). These segmented parts can be independently maintained or replaced, resolving the contradiction by allowing compact design while enabling selective repair of only the faulty component rather than replacing the entire structure.
2Device complexity
If the cordless electric connection part and the cordless signal connection part have an integrated structure, then the device structure is compact and simple, but when one part goes wrong the whole structure must be replaced resulting in inconvenient maintenance
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting the connection structure into electric and signal parts, the patent enables independent access and maintenance of each component. The electric connection part can be serviced separately from the signal connection part, improving maintenance convenience while preserving the overall compact structure through modular design.
3Ease of repair
If the transmission path of electric energy and the transmission path of signal are separated, then maintenance is facilitated and cost is reduced, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by creating separate transmission paths for electric energy and signals, but implements them as integrated modular components that maintain a compact overall structure. This resolves the contradiction by enabling easy maintenance of individual paths while avoiding excessive structural complexity through unified modular design.
