Solution Overview

Problem

Existing pet care products require separate traction ropes and dung picking clamps, making it inconvenient for users to carry both during walks, leading to a poor user experience.

Innovation Solution

A pet traction and dung picking integrated device that combines a traction rope reel, dung picking clamp, and handle, allowing the traction rope reel to be mounted and removed from the dung picking clamp through an opening, with a trigger buckle mechanism to open and close the clamp for easy dung collection.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If separate traction ropes and dung picking clamps are used, then each function can be performed independently, but users need to carry two separate products which is inconvenient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefunctional integrationVSAvoidstructure integration
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the traction rope reel and dung picking clamp into a single integrated device. The牵引绳卷盘 is mounted on the dung picking clamp, allowing both functions to be combined in one handheld device, eliminating the need to carry separate products.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The integrated device serves multiple functions: it can be used for牵着宠物散步 (pet traction) by unwinding the牵引绳, and for捡拾宠物粪便 (dung picking) by closing the clamp around the waste. One device replaces two separate tools, achieving multi-functionality.

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

2Ease of operation

If the opening on the dung picking clamp is made large enough to mount the traction rope reel, then the reel can be easily installed and removed, but the opening may allow dung to fall out

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereel installation and removalVSAvoiddung leakage
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The opening on the dung picking clamp is designed to be dynamic rather than static. When the clamp is closed for picking up dung, the opening automatically closes or reduces in size to prevent leakage. When opened, it allows the牵引绳卷盘 to be mounted or removed. This dynamic adjustment resolves the contradiction between ease of installation and dung containment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
