Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional LED light structures face inefficiencies in production due to separate components requiring complex wire welding and assembly, making automated production difficult and costly.

Innovation Solution

An integrated electrical connection structure using conductive pieces with a supporting plate for simplified assembly, where conductive legs connect to the lamp holder and plugs connect to the light source board, eliminating the need for sequential electrical connections between boards.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional separate components with wire welding are used for electrical connections, then electrical connectivity is achieved, but the production process becomes inefficient and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproduction efficiencyVSAvoidassembly time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple separate electrical connection components into a single integrated electrical connection structure. The supporting plate integrates the first electrical connection component (connecting to lamp holder) and the second electrical connection component (connecting to light source board) into one unified structure, eliminating the need for separate wire welding operations between multiple components. This merging directly improves production efficiency by reducing the number of assembly steps and time required.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Ease of manufacture

If separate electrical connectors are used for connections, then electrical connectivity is achieved, but the structure becomes complicated and manufacturing costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing simplicityVSAvoidconnector structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple electrical connection functions into a single integrated structure. Instead of using separate connectors for connecting the lamp holder and the light source board, the supporting plate simultaneously provides both connection points and electrical pathways, simplifying the overall structure and reducing manufacturing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The supporting plate serves multiple functions: it provides mechanical support, establishes electrical connection to the lamp holder through the first electrical connection component, and establishes electrical connection to the light source board through the second electrical connection component. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for separate dedicated connectors, reducing structural complexity and manufacturing costs.

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

3Ease of operation

If sequential electrical connections are made between light source board, drive board, and lamp holder, then complete electrical connectivity is achieved, but the assembly procedure becomes complicated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly simplicityVSAvoidassembly procedure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The supporting plate is pre-configured with both the first electrical connection component (for lamp holder connection) and the second electrical connection component (for light source board connection) integrated into a single structure. This preliminary integration means that during assembly, workers only need to install one component rather than performing sequential connections through multiple intermediate steps, greatly simplifying the assembly procedure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

Disclosed is an integrated electric connection structure for an LED lamp, comprising a light source board (10), a supporting plate (20), a lamp cap (30) and at least one conductive part (40). The supporting plate (20) is arranged between the light source board (10) and the lamp cap (30). The conductive part (40) comprises conductive pins (41), a fixed portion (42) and a plug (43). The fixed portion (42) is fixed on the supporting plate (20). The conductive pins (41) are electrically connected to the lamp cap (30). The plug (43) is electrically connected to the light source board (10), and thus electrically connects the lamp cap (30) to the light source board (10). The integrated electric connection structure for an LED lamp has the advantages of a simple structure and convenient automated assembly. (Fig. 2)
