Solution Overview
Problem
Existing infrared sensors are limited in their applicability due to having wire outlets in only one direction, making them difficult to install on lights with different shapes and structures.
Innovation Solution
A device for sensing infrared radiation is designed with three wire outlet holes, including a shell, a bottom cover, a Fresnel lens, and an infrared probe, featuring an arc-shaped notch and multiple wire outlet holes for flexible wire routing, allowing for installation on various light shapes and structures.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If wire outlets are provided in only one direction, then the device structure is simple, but the applicability to lights with different shapes and structures is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from a single-direction wire outlet design to a multi-dimensional wire outlet configuration. By providing wire outlets in multiple directions (upper wire outlet hole in the shell upper surface, lower wire outlet hole in the bottom cover, and side wire outlet hole in the sidewall), the device can adapt to lights with different shapes and structures, effectively adding dimensional versatility to the design.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple wire outlet holes are provided, then the applicability to various light shapes is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal design where the shell structure serves multiple functions: it provides structural support, houses the infrared probe and Fresnel lens, and incorporates multiple wire outlet holes for different installation scenarios. This multi-functional approach allows a single device design to accommodate various light shapes and structures without requiring multiple specialized designs.
