Floating Chlorine Lamp With Solar Lighting and Waterproof Sealing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing swimming pool sterilization devices lack aesthetic appeal and functional diversity, primarily relying on slow-release chlorine tablets without additional features for water purification, sterilization, and disinfection, which affects the pool's appearance and user experience.
Innovation Solution
A water purification, sterilization, and disinfection lamp incorporating a lampshade, base, and cylinder for slow-release chlorine tablets, equipped with a solar panel, circuit board, battery, and infrared remote control, allowing for floating operation, solar-powered lighting, and enhanced waterproofing, while maintaining the chlorine tablets' contact with water.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If only slow-release chlorine tablets are used for water purification, then the sterilization function is achieved, but the aesthetic appeal and functional diversity are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The device integrates multiple functions into a single floating unit: the lampshade provides both lighting/aesthetic functions and houses the solar panel for power generation, the base contains the control circuitry and battery, and the cylinder delivers the sterilization function. This multi-functional integration resolves the contradiction by enhancing adaptability without proportionally increasing complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent combines previously separate functions (lighting, power generation, control, and sterilization) into a single integrated floating device. The lampshade merges aesthetic appearance with solar panel housing, while the base integrates electrical components. This merging approach achieves functional diversity while managing complexity through unified design.
2Adaptability or versatility
If additional functions like lighting and remote control are added, then aesthetic appeal and user experience are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The lampshade serves dual purposes: it provides the aesthetic lighting function while simultaneously housing the solar panel for power generation. The base integrates the control circuitry and battery management. This multi-functionality approach improves aesthetic appeal without adding separate dedicated components for each function.
Solution Approach 2:
The solar panel provides self-powered operation for the lighting and control functions, eliminating the need for external power sources or manual charging. The infrared remote control enables wireless operation without additional wiring. These self-service features enhance aesthetic appeal while minimizing the complexity increase through autonomous operation.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the device is made floatable with additional components, then it can operate on water surface, but waterproofing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The device is divided into distinct sealed segments: the lampshade is sealed to house the solar panel and lighting components, the base is sealed to contain the circuit board and battery, and the cylinder is sealed except for controlled permeable areas. This segmentation allows each component to be independently waterproofed, maintaining reliability while enabling floating operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The lampshade and base utilize sealed shell structures that provide waterproof protection while maintaining the floating capability. The cylindrical container uses sealed membranes or thin film barriers that prevent water ingress to electrical components while allowing the device to float. These flexible sealing approaches maintain reliability without compromising floating operation.
