Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional glass LED lamps face challenges in integrating a switch due to their glass structure, preventing multifunctional control through mechanical switches.
Innovation Solution
A glass lamp design that incorporates a light-transmitting assembly with a through hole, housing a switch element connected to a driving circuit within the glass shell, allowing for mechanical switch functionality and multifunctional control.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a traditional glass LED lamp uses a glass structure for the product shell, then the aesthetic integrity and waterproof performance are maintained, but the LED lamp wall becomes thicker and the inability to arrange a switch fixing structure on the side wall prevents multifunctional control
Solution Approach 1:
The switch element is integrated into the light-transmitting assembly which is positioned on the light-emitting surface side of the glass shell, rather than trying to mount it on the side wall. This dimensional relocation allows the switch to be accommodated within the existing glass structure without requiring additional side wall modifications, thereby enabling multifunctional control while maintaining the integrity of the glass shell design
Solution Approach 2:
The light-transmitting assembly serves multiple functions: it transmits light from the LED lamp, provides a mounting structure for the switch element, and maintains the aesthetic appearance of the glass shell. By making the light-transmitting assembly multi-functional, the patent eliminates the need for separate switch fixing structures on the side wall, thus enabling multifunctional control without increasing device complexity
2Reliability
If the product shell adopts a glass structure, then waterproof performance is maintained, but the LED lamp wall becomes thicker preventing switch integration
Solution Approach 1:
The light-transmitting assembly acts as an intermediary structure that bridges the gap between the glass shell and the switch element. It provides a mounting platform for the switch while maintaining the waterproof integrity of the glass shell, allowing the switch to be accessible and functional without compromising the waterproof performance or requiring thicker lamp walls

AI summary
A glass lamp with a switch includes a glass shell, a light-transmitting assembly, a light source plate and a switch element. The light source plate and the switch element are arranged in the glass shell; the light-transmitting assembly is arranged on one side of a light-emitting surface of the light source plate; the light-transmitting assembly is provided with a through hole; a signal end of the switch element is connected with a driving circuit arranged in the glass shell; and an operating end of the switch element is arranged at the position of the through hole. The present application solves the problem that a mechanical switch cannot be arranged in the shell of the glass lamp due to the material or structure, and meets the user need for multifunctional control of the glass lamp through the mechanical switch.
