Lamp Stand Wire Channel Layout for Tangle-Free Adjustment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing lamp stands expose electrical wires, which can become entangled during light position adjustments, posing a risk of interference and damage.
Innovation Solution
The lamp stand design incorporates internal wire channels and housing cavities to house electrical wires, ensuring they remain enclosed and untangled during adjustments, with integrated circuit boards and outlets for electrical connections.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If electrical wires are directly exposed in existing lamp stands, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the wires become entangled with the lamp stand when adjusting light positions
Solution Approach 1:
The lamp stand is divided into functional zones: a working area for light adjustment and an internal wire storage area. The wire channel separates the electrical wires from the operational space, allowing lights to be adjusted freely while wires remain confined to their designated pathway, preventing entanglement.
Solution Approach 2:
The electrical wires are nested within the wire channel, which is itself integrated into the lamp stand structure. The circuit board is housed within the housing cavity, and the wire channel connects to this cavity, creating a nested arrangement where wires are contained within the stand's internal geometry rather than being externally exposed.
2Reliability
If electrical wires are enclosed in wire channels and housing cavities, then wire entanglement is prevented, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The wire channel and housing cavity are merged into a unified internal structure of the lamp stand. The circuit board housing integrates the wire storage cavity and mounting area, combining multiple functions (wire routing, component mounting, and structural support) into a single integrated assembly, thereby reducing overall structural complexity despite the added wire management capabilities.

AI summary
A lamp stand includes a support frame, with an installation position for mounting a light fixture provided thereon. Inside the support frame, a wire channel and a housing cavity are arranged. A first circuit board is provided within the housing cavity, and the wire channel is in communication with the housing cavity. Electrical wires are arranged within the wire channel. A first outlet port for electrical connection with the light fixture is provided on the support frame near the installation position. The first outlet port is electrically connected to the electrical wires within the wire channel, and one end of the electrical wires away from the first outlet port extends into the housing cavity and is electrically connected to the first circuit board.
