Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If screw mounting method is used to fix emergency power supply to luminaire, then reliable connection is achieved, but assembly process becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The connection structure is divided into separate clamping assemblies that can independently engage with the luminaire, allowing for faster assembly while maintaining secure connection through modular design
Solution Approach 2:
The clamping assemblies incorporate elastic components that provide dynamic clamping force, automatically adjusting to secure the luminaire without requiring manual screw tightening, thus reducing assembly time while ensuring reliable connection
2Stability of the object's composition
If screw mounting method is used to fix emergency power supply to luminaire, then secure fixation is achieved, but assembly steps become complex and manual screwing is required
Solution Approach 1:
The clamping assemblies are designed to automatically clamp and secure the luminaire through elastic rebound action without requiring manual screwing or complex assembly steps, achieving self-service fixation that simplifies the assembly process while maintaining stable connection
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple mounting hole sizes and screws are used to accommodate different luminaires, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The clamping assemblies are designed with universal clamping capabilities that can accommodate different types and sizes of luminaires through a single standardized structure, eliminating the need for multiple mounting hole sizes and different screws, thus maintaining adaptability while reducing device complexity
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 solution reduces assembly time and complexity by enabling semi-automatic assembly, making it simpler and more efficient to mount the luminaire and emergency power supply, while accommodating different types and sizes of luminaires without requiring multiple mounting hole sizes or screws.
Implementation Method 1
an elastic member, one end of which is connected to the sliding rod and the other end of which is connected to the connection box; wherein the elastic member is in an elastic deformation state when the clamping member is in the clamping state

AI summary
The application provides a downlight emergency power supply device, including an emergency power box having an accommodation cavity; a connection structure configured to fix a luminaire to the emergency power box, and comprising two clamping assemblies arranged oppositely, wherein the clamping assemblies are elastically connected to an outer side of the emergency power box; and a power supply assembly, fixed in the accommodation cavity, and configured to supply power to the luminaire; wherein the two clamping assemblies clamp and fix the luminaire in an inward or outward rebound state. By setting two clamping assemblies to clamp and fix the luminaire on the emergency power supply, it is simpler and less time-consuming to assemble than the screw mounting method used in the related art, without the need for manual screwing. Besides, the two clamping assemblies of the connection structure can be automatically clamped, achieving semi-automatic assembly, which is convenient and efficient.
