Solution Overview

Problem

Existing decompression absorption bottles face challenges in suppressing deformation of the body part during decompression, as the bottom part deforms excessively.

Innovation Solution

The design incorporates a movable wall part with annular recesses and corner configurations that allow for upward deformation, featuring V- or U-shapes, and radial recesses to facilitate easier deformation of the bottom part, reducing body part deformation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the bottom part is made deformable to absorb decompression, then decompression absorption capability is improved, but body part deformation increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedecompression absorption capabilityVSAvoidbody part deformation
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The bottom part is segmented into multiple functional zones: a ground contact part for stable placement, an upright peripheral wall part for structural support, and an annular movable wall part with recesses for controlled deformation. This segmentation allows each zone to perform its specific function, enabling the bottom part to deform preferentially while protecting the body part

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different regions of the bottom part are given different mechanical properties. The upright peripheral wall part maintains higher rigidity for support, while the annular movable wall part with V-shaped or U-shaped recesses is designed with lower rigidity to deform easily. This local differentiation of mechanical properties enables controlled deformation behavior that absorbs decompression without transmitting excessive force to the body part

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Stability of the object's composition

If the movable wall part is made rigid for structural support, then structural stability is improved, but decompression absorption capability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoiddecompression absorption capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The annular movable wall part is designed with V-shaped or U-shaped recesses that enable dynamic deformation behavior. During decompression, these recesses allow the wall part to flex and rotate upward around the connecting portion with the upright peripheral wall part. This dynamic design provides structural stability during normal use while enabling effective decompression absorption when needed
