Extendable Lamp With Sliding Illumination Units
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional lamps lack extendability and adjustable length, limiting their lighting range and versatility to meet varying environmental and situational requirements.
Innovation Solution
An extendable lamp design featuring a base with a mounting seat and tracks, allowing two illuminating units to slide outward from the base, with a power supply and light emitting modules, enabling adjustable length and lighting range.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the lamp uses a fixed structure, then the manufacturing is simple, but the lighting range is limited and cannot be adjusted
Solution Approach 1:
The lamp employs a telescopic rod mechanism that allows the illuminating unit to extend and retract along a guide rail. The rod can be pushed outward to extend the lighting range or pulled back to return to the original position, transforming the fixed structure into a dynamic, adjustable one that adapts to different lighting requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The lamp is divided into separate functional modules: a base unit, an extendable telescopic rod, and an illuminating unit. This segmentation allows the middle section to be extended independently, enabling adjustable lighting range without complicating the entire structure.
2Length of moving object
If the lamp length is fixed, then the structure is simple, but the length cannot be extended or adjusted according to practical requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The lamp incorporates a telescopic rod with guide rails that enable the illuminating unit to move outward and inward. This dynamic mechanism allows the lamp length to be adjusted according to practical requirements while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure through the use of linear guide rails and a push-rod system.

AI summary
A lamp includes a base defining a chamber and having a wall plate covering the chamber, a power supply mounted in the chamber, two T-shaped tracks projecting from a bottom surface of the base, and two illuminating units each including a light emitting module and a slideway coupled to a corresponding one of the tracks such that the illuminating units can slide along the track.
