Solution Overview
Problem
Existing stage smoke machines experience delays in smoke delivery due to the time required to start the oil pump, leading to suboptimal visual effects, and the high-pressure gas tank's limited lifespan results in slower smoke spraying over time.
Innovation Solution
A stage smoke machine design featuring an oil barrel, oil pump, gas tank, electromagnetic valves, and a gas-filling device, where electromagnetic valves are integrated into a compact module, and a high-speed gas flow producing apparatus enhances rapid smoke delivery and maintains pressure through continuous gas replenishment and oil drainage, ensuring quick and efficient smoke spraying.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If a high-pressure gas tank is used to deliver smoke oil quickly to the heater, then the smoke spraying speed is improved, but the gas pressure decreases after multiple releases causing slower smoke spraying
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-fills a gas storage tank with compressed gas before operation. When smoke spraying is needed, the pre-stored gas immediately pressurizes the smoke oil in the transmission tank, enabling rapid smoke ejection without waiting for pump pressurization or gas tank recharging.
Solution Approach 2:
A transmission tank is introduced as an intermediary component between the gas storage tank and the smoke oil supply system. The transmission tank receives pressurized smoke oil from the gas storage tank and delivers it to the heater, acting as a buffer that maintains consistent pressure delivery even as the gas tank pressure varies.
2Productivity
If the oil pump is used to deliver smoke oil to the heater, then the smoke can be sprayed, but there is a delay in smoke delivery affecting visual effects
Solution Approach 1:
The system replaces the mechanical oil pump with a pneumatic pressurization system. Compressed gas from the gas storage tank directly pressurizes the smoke oil in the transmission tank, eliminating the mechanical pump and its startup delay. The pneumatic system responds instantaneously when gas is released, immediately delivering smoke oil to the heater for rapid smoke ejection.
3Duration of action of moving object
If the high-pressure gas tank is released multiple times, then smoke can be sprayed repeatedly, but the pressure generated becomes insufficient to deliver smoke oil at high speed
Solution Approach 1:
The gas storage tank is pre-filled with a large volume of compressed gas before operation begins. This preliminary action ensures that even after multiple release cycles, sufficient pressurized gas remains in the tank to maintain high-speed smoke spraying performance throughout extended operation without requiring intermediate refilling.

AI summary
Disclosed is a stage smoke machine with a fast spray gas column, including an oil barrel, an oil pump, a gas tank, a first electromagnetic valve, a heater, a gas-filling device and a controller, wherein, in case of gas loss in the gas tank, the gas tank is replenished with the gas by the gas-filling device so that the gas pressure in the gas tank can be maintained at a pressure sufficient to fast spray smoke oil into the heater, thereby ensuring that every time the smoke machine is started, the smoke machine can quickly show a high level stage effect of fast sprayed smoke. Further disclosed is an electromagnetic valve module which is formed by installing at least two electromagnetic valves integrally on a base. The electromagnetic valve module solves the defects that the layout of the existing smoke machine is loose, messy and inconvenient for inspection and maintenance, makes the installation of components in the smoke machine more reasonable and compact, and saves the installation space.
