Solution Overview

Problem

Existing application systems struggle with dispensing resins containing hollow fillers, particularly in achieving uniform application and maintaining low reaction forces in the cured product.

Innovation Solution

The application system incorporates a pressure-feed pump, leveling part, and applying valve, utilizing a rotary volumetric single-shaft eccentric screw pump to deliver viscous materials, and includes components like urethane (meth)acrylate and hollow fillers to achieve planar application with low reaction forces.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If a conventional dispensing system is used to apply viscous material containing hollow fillers, then the material can be delivered, but the application uniformity deteriorates and reaction forces increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveapplication uniformityVSAvoidreaction force
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSForce

Solution Approach 1:

The dispensing system is divided into multiple functional segments: a pressure feed pump for material delivery, a leveling part with multiple nozzles for uniform distribution, and an applying valve for controlled application. This segmentation allows each component to optimize its function, reducing overall reaction forces while improving application uniformity of viscous materials containing hollow fillers

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The leveling part acts as an intermediary component between the pressure feed pump and the applying valve. It receives viscous material, levels the flow rate through its internal structure with multiple nozzles, and delivers uniformly distributed material to the applying valve, thereby reducing reaction forces and improving application quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If the flow rate of viscous material is not leveled, then delivery speed is maintained, but application quality deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedelivery speedVSAvoidapplication quality
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The pressure feed pump operates continuously to deliver viscous material at high speed, while the leveling part simultaneously performs flow rate leveling through its multi-nozzle structure. This continuous dual-action system maintains both high productivity and high application quality without interruption or trade-off

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

3Device complexity

If a simple pump structure is used, then device complexity is reduced, but flow rate leveling capability is lost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepump structure complexityVSAvoidflow rate leveling
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system separates the pumping function from the flow leveling function into distinct components. The pressure feed pump maintains simple structure for ease of manufacture, while the leveling part with its multi-nozzle structure handles the complex flow rate leveling task, allowing each component to be optimized independently

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
