Innovation Solution
A simple, low-cost cleaning tool with a hand-held portion and cleaning portion, featuring press bumps and cambered cleaning claws for removing grease and dirt, and a hexagonal inner hole for wrench functionality, along with an extension portion for automatic rotation, facilitating efficient and wide-range use.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a complex cleaning structure with multiple components is used for grease fitting cleaning, then cleaning effectiveness is improved, but device complexity and manufacturing cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple cleaning functions into a single integrated cleaning member that includes a pressing portion for the ball valve and cleaning portions for the grease fitting. This merging of functions reduces device complexity while maintaining comprehensive cleaning effectiveness, directly resolving the technical contradiction between cleaning effectiveness and structural complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The cleaning member is designed to perform multiple functions simultaneously: pressing the ball valve to open the hole plugging mechanism, cleaning the outer surface of the grease fitting, and cleaning the nozzle. This multi-functionality approach allows a single component to achieve comprehensive cleaning results without requiring multiple separate components, thereby reducing overall device complexity.
2Ease of manufacture
If a standardized simple cleaning tool is used, then ease of manufacture and promotion is improved, but cleaning effectiveness may be insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates multiple cleaning actions into a single simple tool structure. The cleaning member combines the ball pressing function and surface cleaning function in one component, making the tool easy to manufacture while ensuring comprehensive cleaning effectiveness through the coordinated action of different portions of the same member.
