Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional electric blankets face challenges in quickly identifying a quick charge source, complicating their structure and increasing maintenance costs due to the integration of quick charge identification devices, which are replaced as a whole when damaged.

Innovation Solution

An intelligent-identification quick-charge electric blanket integrates a connecting cable with an input module, output control circuit, main control circuit, and USB interface, allowing for a pluggable design that simplifies the structure and facilitates replacement, while incorporating a junction box for orderly wiring to enhance data transmission reliability.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If a device for quick charge identification is disposed on the electric blanket, then the electric blanket can quickly identify a quick charge source, but the overall structure of the electric blanket is complicated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequick charge identification capabilityVSAvoidoverall structure of the electric blanket
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the quick charge identification function into a separate connecting cable with an integrated input module, main control circuit, and USB interface. This segmentation allows the electric blanket body to remain simple while the quick charge functionality is isolated in the removable cable, resolving the contradiction between quick charge capability and structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Productivity

If the device for quick charge identification is integrated into the electric blanket, then the quick charge function is achieved, but the maintenance cost increases due to whole replacement when damaged

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequick charge functionVSAvoidmaintenance cost
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of repair

Solution Approach 1:

By separating the quick charge identification circuitry into the connecting cable, the patent enables independent replacement of the cable module without replacing the entire electric blanket. This significantly reduces maintenance costs while preserving the quick charge function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts the main control circuit supporting quick charge protocol and USB interface from the electric blanket body and places them in the connecting cable. This extraction allows the expensive blanket to be preserved while only the cable needs replacement if damaged.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Volume of moving object

If multiple wires are twisted together in the electric blanket body, then the wiring is compact, but wire crosstalk occurs reducing data transmission reliability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewiring compactnessVSAvoiddata transmission reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent separates power transmission and data transmission functions into different cables or isolated pathways. The connecting cable for quick charge uses dedicated shielding and routing that prevents crosstalk, ensuring reliable data transmission while maintaining compact overall design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
