Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Volume of moving object
If the bulb shell inlet is narrow, then the bulb structure is compact, but the installation of light bars becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The light bar is divided into multiple segments that can be folded or bent, allowing it to be installed through a narrow inlet and then expanded to the desired configuration inside the bulb shell
Solution Approach 2:
The light bar structure is made dynamic and flexible, allowing it to change shape from a compact installed state to an expanded lighting state, enabling easy installation followed by positional adjustment
2Productivity
If the light emitting diodes are positioned precisely to enhance lighting efficiency, then the lighting performance improves, but the installation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The light bar is pre-configured with the light emitting diodes in the desired positions and orientations before installation, so that when the light bar is installed and expanded, the precise positioning is already achieved without complex adjustment procedures
Solution Approach 2:
The light bar structure allows for easy adjustment of position and angle parameters after installation, enabling precise optimization of light emitting diode orientation to control beam angles and enhance lighting efficiency
3Duration of action of moving object
If the light emitting diodes operate continuously, then the lighting function is maintained, but heat accumulation reduces service life
Solution Approach 1:
The heat generated by continuous LED operation is managed through improved heat dissipation structures and positioning that optimize airflow and thermal conduction, converting the harmful heat accumulation into a controlled thermal management problem that enhances reliability
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This method enables smooth installation of LED light bars in narrow bulb shells, enhances lighting efficiency by precise angle adjustment, and improves heat dissipation, extending the service life and performance of the light apparatus.
Implementation Method 1
The expansion structure is unexpanded and is disposed on the backside of multiple light emitting diode light bars, wherein each light emitting diode light bar has certain flexibility. Then, to expand the expansion structure so that multiple light emitting diode light bars is individually bent and deformed toward the bulb shell direction. And, to shrink the expansion structure after the light emitting diode light bars are bent and deformed.
Implementation Method 2
adhesives are applied to a predetermined location of the light emitting diode light bars. When the light emitting diode light bars are abutted by the expansion structure, the light emitting diode light bars are expanded and in touch with the bulb shell. At the time, the adhesives stick to the bulb shell, so as to generate a certain fixing effect between the light-emitting diode light bars and the bulb shell.

AI summary
A method of installing a light emitting diode light bar into a bulb is provided. Place the light bar module into the light bulb shell. The light bar module has a plurality of light emitting diode light bars and an expansion structure. The expansion structure is not expanded and is disposed among multiple light emitting diode light bars. Each light emitting diode light bar has a certain degree of flexibility. Expanding the expansion structure then, therefore multiple light emitting diode light bars are individually bent and deformed toward the bulb shell direction. Next, remove the expansion module and install other components of the bulb.
