Solution Overview
Problem
Current LED lamp strips are limited to either illumination or decoration, unable to emit light from both the front and sides, or select specific light emission directions.
Innovation Solution
A flexible LED light-emitting lamp strip with a long, strip-shaped circuit substrate featuring front, first side, and second side light-emitting LED lamp beads connected in series, allowing for adjustable light emission from the front and sides, and equipped with a control module and connectors for various light modes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a single light-emitting direction is used in LED lamp strips, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the functional versatility is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The LED lamp strip is segmented into multiple light-emitting units, with each unit containing LED lamp beads arranged in specific directional groups. This segmentation allows different portions of the lamp strip to emit light in different directions (front, side, or both), providing functional versatility while maintaining manageable structural complexity through modular design
Solution Approach 2:
Each light-emitting unit is designed to perform multiple functions by incorporating LED lamp beads that can emit light in different directions. The same basic unit structure can be configured to provide front illumination, side illumination, or both simultaneously, making the lamp strip universally applicable for various lighting needs without requiring completely different designs
2Illumination intensity
If front light-emitting LED lamp beads are used, then illumination effect is improved, but decoration effect is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The invention merges front light-emitting LED lamp beads and side light-emitting LED lamp beads within the same light-emitting unit. This combination allows the lamp strip to simultaneously achieve high illumination intensity from the front and decorative lighting effects from the sides, resolving the trade-off between illumination performance and functional versatility
3Adaptability or versatility
If side light-emitting LED lamp beads are used, then decoration effect is improved, but illumination intensity is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
By merging side light-emitting LED lamp beads with front light-emitting LED lamp beads in the same light-emitting unit, the system maintains strong illumination intensity from the front while adding decorative side lighting capabilities. The front LEDs provide the primary illumination function, while the side LEDs enhance decorative versatility without significantly compromising overall light output
