Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing LED lamp structures require complex assembly and high manufacturing costs due to separate components for the LED aluminum substrate and driver, necessitating electrical wires to connect them.
Innovation Solution
A lamp cap electrical connection structure featuring a substrate with integrated electronic components and a lever-style second electrode, eliminating the need for electrical wires by directly connecting the first and second electrodes to the substrate's connection ends, simplifying assembly and reducing costs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If the driver source is contained in the sleeve tube in the center of the radiator and connected via electrical wires through the radiator center, then the LED lamp structure can be assembled, but the assembly process becomes complicated and manufacturing cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the driver source with the radiator by placing it on the rear surface of the radiator rather than in a separate sleeve tube. The LED aluminum substrate is also integrated directly onto the radiator surface. This consolidation eliminates the need for separate containment structures and simplifies the overall assembly process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the electrical connection wires from the interior of the radiator structure. Instead of routing wires through the center of the radiator as in conventional designs, the connections are made on the rear surface, removing the complex internal wiring pathway and simplifying both manufacturing and assembly.
2Reliability
If electrical wires are used to connect the driver source and LED source plate, then electrical connection can be established, but the structure becomes more complex and assembly becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the electrical connection function with the mechanical mounting structure. The driver source and LED aluminum substrate are both mounted directly on the radiator, creating integrated connection points that eliminate the need for separate wire routing paths and connection components.
Solution Approach 2:
The radiator serves as an intermediary structure that provides both mechanical support and electrical connection pathways. By mounting the driver source and LED substrate on the radiator, the radiator acts as a mediator that facilitates electrical connections without requiring additional wires or connection hardware.
