Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If the light tube is made non-replaceable and disposable in traditional firework lights, then the device complexity is reduced, but the reliability and service life are worsened

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure complexityVSAvoidservice life
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The light tube assembly is divided into separable components including the light tube, connecting waterproof cap, waterproof tail cap, and anti-skid tube. These segments can be independently replaced or maintained, allowing the light tube to be reused rather than disposed of, thereby improving reliability while maintaining manageable complexity through modular design

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The connection structure between the light tube assembly and housing transitions from a fixed permanent connection to a detachable dynamic connection. The first connecting assembly with bolt tube, fastening nut, and locking nut enables the light tube to be removed and reinstalled, facilitating replacement and extending service life through reuse

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Ease of manufacture

If the light tube is made non-replaceable in traditional firework lights, then the ease of manufacture is improved, but the ease of repair and reusability are worsened

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing simplicityVSAvoidreusability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSEase of repair

Solution Approach 1:

The light tube assembly is segmented into replaceable components that can be manufactured separately and assembled through simple connecting structures. The standardized first connecting assembly with bolt tube and locking mechanisms enables easy assembly and disassembly, facilitating repair and reuse without requiring complex manufacturing processes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The design enables recovery and reuse of the light tube by providing a detachable connection structure. Instead of discarding the entire light tube assembly, individual components can be recovered, maintained, and reused, improving ease of repair and sustainability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #34Discarding and recovering

3Device complexity

If the light tube has poor waterproof performance in traditional firework lights, then the device complexity is reduced, but the reliability under environmental conditions is worsened

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewaterproof structure complexityVSAvoidwaterproof performance
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The connecting waterproof cap and waterproof tail cap act as flexible sealing elements that protect the light tube from water penetration. These cap structures provide waterproof protection while maintaining a relatively simple overall design, improving reliability without excessive complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

Solution Approach 2:

The first connecting assembly with bolt tube, fastening nut, and locking nut serves as an intermediary structure that provides both mechanical connection and waterproof sealing. This intermediate component enables detachable connection while maintaining waterproof performance, resolving the contradiction between simplicity and reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Reliability

If the light tube is made replaceable with detachable connections, then the reliability and reusability are improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice lifeVSAvoidconnection structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The first connecting assembly is designed as a universal multi-functional component that provides both mechanical attachment and waterproof sealing in a single integrated structure. The bolt tube with fastening nut and locking nut serves multiple functions simultaneously, reducing the need for separate components and thereby limiting the increase in overall device complexity while achieving improved reliability and reusability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
