Flower Water Receiver With Self-Condensing Module
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional flower water receivers are difficult to use in regions with little precipitation or where installing a watering system is challenging, and they require complex setups involving pumps and nozzles to supply water to flower pots.
Innovation Solution
A flower water receiver with a cylindrical main body that stores water and incorporates a self-watering module to condense moisture from the air, supported by ribs and a wick system to autonomously supply water to the flower pot, eliminating the need for external water sources or complex installations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a pump and nozzle system is used to supply water to the flower pot, then water can be supplied to the flower pot, but the device complexity increases and installation becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and eliminates the complex pump and nozzle components from the watering system. Instead of using mechanical pumping devices, the invention uses a simple wick-based capillary action system where water is automatically drawn from the reservoir to the flower pot through porous wick material, greatly simplifying the overall device structure and installation process
Solution Approach 2:
The watering system operates autonomously without requiring external power sources or complex control mechanisms. The wick material automatically draws water from the reservoir to the flower pot through capillary action, enabling the system to service itself without pumps, nozzles, or electrical components
2Adaptability or versatility
If water is received from external sources for watering, then watering can be performed, but the system cannot be used in regions with little precipitation or where watering systems are difficult to install
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal watering system that can function in diverse environmental conditions. By incorporating a self-contained water reservoir and autonomous wick-based delivery mechanism, the system does not depend on external water sources like rainfall or complex municipal watering infrastructure, enabling it to be used in regions with little precipitation or where installing traditional watering systems is difficult
Solution Approach 2:
The system collects and stores water in an integrated reservoir and automatically delivers it to the flower pot through capillary action in the wick material. This self-service capability eliminates the need for external water sources or manual intervention, allowing the system to operate independently in environments where traditional watering methods would fail
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
Enables self-watering of flower pots in environments with limited precipitation, simplifying the water supply structure by using a self-watering module to condense air moisture and a wick system to deliver water directly to the flower pot, ensuring consistent hydration without manual intervention.
Implementation Method 1
a self-watering module installed on a central portion of a bottom of the main body to form water by condensing moisture in the air
Implementation Method 2
a wick support member configured to support a wick configured to absorb water in the lower portion of the main body and transfer the water to the inside of the flower pot
