Solution Overview
Problem
Existing dial dimming lamps have bulky adjustment devices that complicate production, assembly, and hinder miniaturization and integration due to their complex internal structures.
Innovation Solution
A dial illumination lamp design featuring a light source assembly with a dial member hinged to a contact member that swings to switch between connecting contacts on a light source plate, allowing for compact adjustment without traditional wiring terminals.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional wiring terminals and wiring base are used in the adjustment device, then the lamp can achieve parameter adjustment function, but the adjustment device becomes bulky and complex in structure
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the wiring terminal and wiring base into an integrated structure where the dial button directly contacts the circuit board through a single contact point. This eliminates the need for separate wiring terminals and wiring base components, significantly simplifying the adjustment device structure while maintaining the parameter adjustment function.
Solution Approach 2:
The dial button serves multiple functions: it acts as both the adjustment interface for users and the electrical contact element that directly connects to the circuit board. This multi-functionality reduces the number of components needed and simplifies the overall device structure.
2Ease of operation
If traditional wiring terminals and wiring base are used in the adjustment device, then the lamp can achieve parameter adjustment function, but the production and assembly difficulty increases
Solution Approach 1:
By combining the wiring terminal and wiring base into a single integrated contact structure on the circuit board, the patent reduces the number of parts that need to be manufactured and assembled. This integration significantly lowers production complexity and assembly difficulty while preserving the parameter adjustment capability.
3Ease of operation
If traditional wiring terminals and wiring base are used in the adjustment device, then the lamp can achieve parameter adjustment function, but the lamp miniaturization and integration are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple components (dial button, wiring terminal, wiring base) into a compact integrated structure where the dial button directly contacts the circuit board. This consolidation dramatically reduces the space required for the adjustment device, enabling lamp miniaturization and integration.
Solution Approach 2:
The dial button is designed to nest closely with the circuit board contact point, with the contact structure integrated within the housing. This nested arrangement minimizes the overall volume of the adjustment device, facilitating lamp miniaturization.
