Inflatable Costume Tightening Device for Stability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing inflatable costumes are prone to loosening and movement when worn, leading to instability and discomfort during activities due to their oversized design.
Innovation Solution
An inflatable costume design featuring a tightening device with a barrier layer, elastic band, and air holes between the head and body parts, along with an air blasting component and charging system, ensures secure fit and stability through adjustable inflation and power supply.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the inflatable costume is designed to be oversized for comfort and exaggerated appearance, then the user experience and visual effect are improved, but the costume becomes loose and unstable during movement
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the costume adjustable through inflation and deflation. The inflatable structure allows the costume to change its size and shape dynamically, enabling it to adapt between a loose comfortable state for visual effect and a tighter stable state for movement, thus resolving the contradiction between comfort/visual effect and stability
2Ease of operation
If the inflatable costume is made loose-fitting for comfort, then ease of movement is improved, but the head part drops and the costume moves excessively
Solution Approach 1:
The inflatable structure enables dynamic adjustment of the costume's fit. By controlling the inflation level, the costume can maintain enough looseness for ease of movement while simultaneously providing sufficient tension to keep the head part in position and prevent excessive movement, resolving the contradiction between ease of movement and head part stability
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
The solution provides a stable and adjustable fit, preventing the costume from loosening or moving during activities, enhancing user experience and applicability by maintaining shape and comfort throughout use.
Implementation Method 1
the barrier layer is provided with a first elastic band; and the first elastic band is configured to adjust a size of the first opening
Implementation Method 2
the air blasting component is configured to inflate the head part and the body part to fill the first inflation chamber and the second inflation chamber with air

AI summary
An inflatable costume includes a main body and a tightening device. The main body includes a head part and a body part. The tightening device is arranged between the head part and the body part. Through the above structure, when a user wears the inflatable costume, the inflatable costume can be tightened and fixed at the neck of shoulders of the user by the tightening device arranged between the head part and the body part. Furthermore, the tightening device can be adjusted according to sizes of the neck and shoulders of the user, thereby preventing the following phenomena: The inflatable costume will be loosened when the user wears it, the head part of the inflatable costume will drop, or the inflatable costume will easily move in aggravating activities, so that the inflatable costume has higher stability and applicability, and the user experience is greatly improved.
