Solution Overview

Problem

Existing sensing modules in LED lamps are integrated into the lamp before factory assembly, making them inflexible and limiting user customization to meet specific environmental needs.

Innovation Solution

An accessory structure for a sensing module comprising a detachable sensor, L-shaped bracket, male terminal, and plug-in connection terminals, allowing users to install the module on-site and facilitate quick connection/disconnection, with a tail clip for aesthetic and strain prevention, and a replaceable sensor design.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the sensing module is integrated into the lamp before factory assembly, then the product is manufactured efficiently, but the product becomes inflexible and cannot be customized for different environments

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing efficiencyVSAvoidflexibility for different environments
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The sensing module is divided into separate components (sensor, L-shaped bracket, male terminal) that can be independently manufactured and then assembled on-site. This segmentation allows the lamp to be produced efficiently without the sensing module, while enabling customization at the installation location according to specific environmental requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The sensing module is extracted from the factory assembly process and positioned as a separate accessory that can be installed on-site. This extraction maintains manufacturing efficiency for the lamp body while providing the flexibility to adapt sensing functionality to different environments based on actual needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Adaptability or versatility

If the sensing module is made as a detachable accessory, then user flexibility and adaptability are improved, but the installation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser flexibilityVSAvoidinstallation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Multiple components (sensor, L-shaped bracket, male terminal) are merged into a single integrated accessory unit that functions as one cohesive module. This merging simplifies the installation process by reducing the number of separate parts to handle, while still providing the flexibility of detachable installation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The L-shaped bracket serves as an intermediary component between the sensor and the lampshade, providing a standardized interface for attachment. This intermediary structure simplifies the connection process and reduces installation complexity by establishing a clear mounting mechanism.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If plug-in connection terminals are designed in the sensor and sensing controller, then installation efficiency is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation efficiencyVSAvoidterminal connection complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The male and female terminals are designed as universal connection interfaces that can be quickly plugged together to establish electrical connection. This standardized terminal design enables rapid installation and disconnection without complex wiring procedures, while the terminal structure itself is optimized to handle multiple connection functions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
