Ceiling Fan Lamp Reducing Floor Height via Groove Nesting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing ceiling fan lamps occupy excessive floor height, making them unsuitable for common houses with standard ceiling heights, and pose safety hazards due to their protruding design.
Innovation Solution
A fan lamp design featuring a base with a fan groove and air outlet duct, allowing the fan to be integrated in a way that reduces overall height and includes multiple light source modules for adjustable lighting, along with safety features like a back cover and partition strips to prevent accidental contact.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the fan and light source are integrated on a ceiling lamp in the related technology, then the ceiling lamp can provide both lighting and air supply functions, but the floor height occupied increases making it unsuitable for common houses with standard ceiling heights
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the spatial arrangement from a vertical suspension structure to a horizontal planar structure. The fan is positioned in a groove on the ceiling surface rather than hanging below, and the light source is arranged on the side surface of the base. This dimensional reorganization maintains both lighting and air supply functions while dramatically reducing the vertical space occupied, making it suitable for standard ceiling heights.
Solution Approach 2:
The fan is nested within a groove structure on the ceiling surface, with the groove depth designed to accommodate the fan while keeping the overall profile low. The light source module is integrated into the side surface of the base structure. This nesting approach allows both components to coexist in a compact configuration that minimizes floor height occupation.
2Ease of manufacture
If the ceiling lamp occupies a large floor height, then the decorative effect can be achieved, but it causes a sense of repression and potential safety hazards
Solution Approach 1:
The design transitions from a vertical hanging structure to a horizontal ceiling-mounted structure. By positioning the fan in a groove on the ceiling surface and the light source on the side surface, the patent eliminates the need for large vertical clearance, thereby removing the sense of repression and eliminating safety hazards associated with protruding structures in standard ceiling height environments.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If the fan is positioned closer to the ceiling, then safety is improved by reducing accidental contact risk, but air flow efficiency may be affected
Solution Approach 1:
The air outlet duct acts as an intermediary component that bridges the gap between the fan positioned in the ceiling groove and the room space below. The duct is configured to efficiently channel air from the fan location to the desired discharge area, maintaining air flow efficiency despite the fan's repositioned location near the ceiling surface.
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 minimizes floor height occupation and enhances safety by positioning the fan closer to the ceiling, reducing the risk of accidental contact and improving air flow efficiency while offering versatile lighting options.
Implementation Method 1
an air outlet duct arranged on the base and communicated with the fan groove and the second side
Implementation Method 2
a first light source module arranged in the first light source setting area
