Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional laser needles are limited in stimulating multiple acupoints simultaneously, making them difficult to apply in clinical practice for acupuncture treatments.
Innovation Solution
A head acupoint laser stimulator that includes a dome-shaped case with multiple laser generation units arranged to stimulate specific acupoints along various meridians on the head, controlled by a laser control unit that can adjust intensity, position, and time of stimulation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If conventional laser needles are used to stimulate multiple acupoints, then the treatment coverage is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The device divides the laser stimulation function into multiple independent laser generation units, with each unit responsible for stimulating specific acupoints along different meridians. This segmentation allows the device to cover multiple acupoints simultaneously while keeping each individual laser unit simple and manageable.
Solution Approach 2:
The device integrates multiple laser generation units into a single unified system that can stimulate various acupoints across different meridians. The common power supply and control unit provide universal functionality, allowing one device to perform multiple stimulation functions that would traditionally require separate devices.
2Measurement precision
If multiple laser generation units are arranged to stimulate specific acupoints, then the treatment precision is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Each laser generation unit is positioned and oriented to stimulate specific acupoints along particular meridians. The lasers are arranged at regular intervals along imaginary lines corresponding to the meridian pathways, ensuring precise local stimulation of the intended acupoints while maintaining a systematic and manageable structure.
3Reliability
If conventional acupuncture with needles is used, then the treatment effectiveness is improved, but the risk of bleeding and infection increases
Solution Approach 1:
The device replaces the mechanical needle insertion method with a laser-based energy transmission system. Instead of physically penetrating the skin with needles to stimulate acupoints, the laser generates electromagnetic energy that travels through the air or skin surface to stimulate the acupoints, thereby eliminating the mechanical trauma and associated risks of bleeding and infection while maintaining treatment effectiveness.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The device allows for simultaneous stimulation of multiple acupoints, providing a therapeutic effect similar to acupuncture without the risks of bleeding or infection, offering a safer and more comfortable treatment option.
Implementation Method 1
a plurality of laser generation units which are disposed inside the case portion, and emit laser needles to stimulate acupoints distributed on the head
