Solution Overview

Problem

Existing decorations lack multi-functionality and are not effectively visible in dark environments, with most relying on monotonous light-emitting functions and excessive mechanical structures that compromise their integrity and aesthetic appeal.

Innovation Solution

A multi-function controllable luminous decoration featuring an inductive light-emitting device with a detection switch, control unit, light-emitting unit, TF card, main control chip, data line port, and charging management chip, allowing for vibration detection, data storage, and charging management, integrated within a casing with a metallic hook and light-reflection layers, enabling various light-emitting modes and power supply options.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Illumination intensity

If a light-emitting device is added to existing decorations, then the decorative effect in dark environments is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedecorative effect in dark environmentVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent integrates multiple functions into a single decoration device: light emission for dark environment visibility, vibration detection for interactive control, data storage via TF card, and charging management. This multi-functionality approach resolves the contradiction by adding light-emitting capabilities while managing complexity through unified design rather than separate components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent combines the light-emitting device, detection switch, control unit, and power management components into an integrated assembly within the decoration casing. This merging of components reduces overall device complexity compared to having separate devices, while still providing enhanced illumination functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple mechanical structures are added to achieve light emission and vibration detection, then the light-emitting function is improved, but the integrity of the decoration is compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelight-emitting functionVSAvoidintegrity of decoration
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent achieves multiple functions (light emission, vibration detection, data storage, charging) through an integrated electronic system rather than separate mechanical structures. This approach maintains the decorative integrity while providing versatile functionality, as the electronic components are embedded within the casing rather than adding external mechanical complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Ease of manufacture

If a rear cover with screw connection is added for battery installation, then the charging management function is improved, but the aesthetic appeal and integrity of the decoration is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebattery installationVSAvoidaesthetic appeal
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSShape

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the battery installation function from a separate rear cover with screw connection and integrates it directly into the casing structure. This allows battery access without compromising the aesthetic appearance, as the opening is minimized and designed to maintain the overall decorative shape while still enabling easy battery installation and removal.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

4Reliability

If excessive mechanical structures are used for coupling and fixing, then the light-emitting device is secured, but the device complexity and mechanical complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecuring of light-emitting deviceVSAvoidmechanical structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the coupling and fixing functions into an integrated electronic assembly that is embedded within the casing. This integration secures the light-emitting device and electronic components without requiring excessive mechanical structures, as the unified design provides inherent stability while minimizing mechanical complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
