Erratic Uncontrolled Lure with Rotating Spinner Blade
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current fishing lures lack structural integrity and fail to replicate the erratic, uncontrolled movement of natural prey, making them less attractive to fish and potentially unable to hook larger fish effectively.
Innovation Solution
A fishing lure design featuring a body with a hook and a freely rotating spinner blade attached to a stem, allowing for 360-degree rotation and erratic movement through the water, combined with a line connector that enhances the lure's ability to mimic natural swimming motion and attract fish without additional components like split rings.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If traditional fishing lures are designed with rigid structures and fixed components, then structural integrity is maintained, but the lure fails to replicate erratic, uncontrolled movement of natural prey
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the spinner blade freely rotatable about the stem rather than fixed. This allows the blade to rotate 360 degrees and move erratically in response to water currents and retrieval motion, replicating natural prey movement patterns while the overall lure structure maintains its integrity through the rigid body and hook assembly.
2Adaptability or versatility
If additional components like split rings are added to allow blade rotation, then movement freedom is improved, but device complexity and potential structural weakness increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the blade attachment function directly into the stem structure. The blade is secured along the stem in a manner that allows free rotation without requiring separate split rings or additional mounting components. This integration reduces device complexity while maintaining full rotational freedom and structural integrity.
3Reliability
If the blade is tightly secured to maintain structural strength, then reliability is improved, but the blade's ability to rotate freely and vibrate is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent resolves this contradiction by designing a dynamic attachment where the blade is secured to the stem but with rotational freedom. The securing mechanism provides sufficient structural strength to maintain reliability while allowing the blade to rotate freely and vibrate in response to water forces, achieving both structural integrity and rotational speed.
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 design provides increased structural integrity while creating an attractive, erratic movement pattern that mimics natural prey, increasing the chances of catching larger fish without the need for additional components, ensuring effective hooking and minimizing interference with the spinner blade's rotation.
Implementation Method 1
a spinner blade secured along the stem, wherein the spinner blade is able to rotate freely about a center axis of the stem
Implementation Method 2
A chatter bait is a type of lure that combines a jig with a blade attached near the front of the jig to impart a vibrating movement
