Solution Overview

Problem

Existing containers for cigarette papers and filters are not designed for easy and efficient dispensing of contents, making the process cumbersome and inconvenient for users.

Innovation Solution

A portable container with compartments separated by a divider and cutouts in the walls allows for easy access and removal of cigarette papers and filters using a user's finger, with a cover that can be locked to maintain contents during handling.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If a container stores cigarette papers and filters in separate compartments, then organization and security of contents are improved, but access and dispensing become cumbersome without proper openings

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveorganization of contentsVSAvoidaccess to contents

Core Design Contradiction:

Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The container is divided into multiple compartments (first compartment for cigarette papers, second compartment for filters/tips) separated by a divider, allowing organized storage of different items while maintaining secure containment

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Cutouts are provided in the divider and/or container walls that allow users to extract individual items (cigarette papers or filters) from their respective compartments without opening the entire container, enabling easy access while maintaining security

Inventive Principle:

Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Volume of moving object

If a container is designed to be portable and compact, then ease of carrying is improved, but secure containment during movement becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecontainer sizeVSAvoidsecure containment

Core Design Contradiction:

Volume of moving objectVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The container includes a lockable cover that can be closed and secured before movement, preventing contents from shifting or falling out during transport. The cutouts are positioned and sized to allow item removal while maintaining secure containment when the cover is closed

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

3Ease of operation

If cutouts are provided in the container walls for easy access, then dispensing convenience is improved, but structural integrity may be compromised

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedispensing convenienceVSAvoidcontainer structural integrity

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

Cutouts are strategically positioned in the divider or container walls at locations that provide easy access to contents while minimizing impact on overall structural integrity. The cutouts are sized appropriately to allow finger insertion for item removal without creating weak points that would compromise the container

Inventive Principle:

Principle #3Local quality
