Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electric heating mosquito repellers have low heating efficiency and are inadequate for effectively repelling mosquitoes in environments with high mosquito populations.
Innovation Solution
A double-sided mosquito repeller design featuring a main shell with two placement bins and an installation cavity, where a heating unit is sandwiched between two heat conduction units to efficiently heat mosquito-repellent pads on both sides, enhanced by diffusion plates and a blower component for odor diffusion.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If single-sided heating is used in electric heating mosquito repeller, then device structure is simple, but heating efficiency is low
Solution Approach 1:
The heating system is segmented into two independent heating units, each responsible for heating one side of the mosquito-repellent pad. This segmentation allows simultaneous heating of both sides, doubling the effective heating area and improving overall heating efficiency without requiring a completely new system architecture
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from single-sided (one-dimensional) heating to double-sided (two-dimensional) heating by adding heating capability in the opposite direction. This dimensional expansion of the heating approach effectively doubles the heat treatment coverage area, resolving the contradiction between heating efficiency and structural complexity
2Reliability
If single-sided heating is used, then power consumption is low, but mosquito repelling effect is insufficient in high mosquito population environments
Solution Approach 1:
The mosquito repelling function is segmented into two parallel heating zones, each independently heating one side of the repellent pad. This ensures that the entire pad surface is actively contributing to mosquito repulsion, enhancing reliability in high mosquito population environments while distributing power consumption across two efficient heating elements
Solution Approach 2:
Double-sided heating enables continuous and simultaneous heat treatment of both sides of the mosquito-repellent pad, ensuring that the repelling effect is maintained across the entire pad surface without interruption or inactive zones, thereby improving reliability of mosquito protection
