Solution Overview

Problem

Existing inflatable massage pools have limited massage spray heads on the internal wall, making it difficult to perform multi-directional massage or whole-body massage, requiring users to adjust their position and posture, and often only allowing massage of the back or waist.

Innovation Solution

Incorporating a fluid delivery assembly with a fluid supply pipeline and massage spray heads within an inflatable seat, allowing for multi-directional massage by spraying fluid into the water containing cavity, and optionally mixing with air for a bubbled water effect.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If massage spray heads are arranged on the internal wall of the pool main body, then the structure is simple, but the location and quantity of massage spray heads are limited, making it difficult to perform multi-directional massage or whole body massage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemassage coverageVSAvoidstructure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from a two-dimensional arrangement of spray heads on the pool wall to a three-dimensional configuration by placing spray heads at multiple levels (upper, middle, lower) on the inflatable seat, enabling comprehensive whole-body massage coverage without increasing horizontal space requirements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

The inflatable seat with integrated spray heads is nested within the pool main body, creating a compact configuration where the seat serves as both seating furniture and massage device, eliminating the need for separate wall-mounted spray head installations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

2Ease of operation

If a user needs to adjust their position and posture to be massaged by leaning against the massage spray heads, then the structure remains simple, but only the back or waist can be massaged and the user cannot fully relax

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser relaxationVSAvoidstructure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The inflatable seat is designed to be movable and adjustable within the pool, allowing users to reposition it to achieve optimal massage angles and positions, thereby enhancing comfort and relaxation without requiring complex fixed installation structures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The inflatable seat serves multiple functions: providing seating support, delivering multi-directional massage through integrated spray heads, and enabling user positioning adjustment, thereby replacing the need for separate wall-mounted massage systems

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

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

Enables a more comfortable and comprehensive massage experience by allowing users to relax without adjusting their posture, with multiple massage spray heads providing coverage across various body parts.

Implementation Method 1

a pumping unit connected to the water outlet pipeline and to the water supply pipeline thereby providing fluid communication between the water outlet pipeline and the water supply pipeline

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectPumping: Pump

Implementation Method 2

a plurality of massage spray heads mounted to the inflatable seat and configured to spray fluid into the water containing cavity

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectFluid spray: Fluid Spray

Implementation Method 3

an air pump in fluid communication with the air supply pipeline, wherein the air pump is configured to supply an air flow to the massage spray heads to mix with the water flow in the massage spray heads

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectAir supply: Gas Compressor

AI summary

As inflatable massage pool is provided and includes a pool body including an inflatable side wall, defining therein a first air chamber, and a bottom wall. The inflatable side wall and the bottom wall jointly define a water containing cavity. An inflatable seat is disposed in the water containing cavity and defines therein a second air chamber. A fluid delivery assembly includes a fluid supply pipeline disposed at least partially within one of the water containing cavity and the second air chamber and a plurality of massage spray heads mounted to the inflatable seat and configured to spray fluid into the water containing cavity. The fluid supply pipeline is in fluid communication with the plurality of massage spray heads.
