Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Temperature
If a heat sink is used to dissipate heat from the LED, then the heat dissipation effect is improved, but the volume, weight, and cost of the LED lamp increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the heat dissipation function from the traditional heat sink component and integrates it into the LED light source board structure itself. The light source board is designed with a thin metallic substrate that directly contacts the LED chips, eliminating the need for a separate bulky heat sink while maintaining effective heat dissipation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the heat dissipation function with the electrical connection function by integrating the heat dissipation structure into the LED light source board. The metallic substrate serves both as the electrical circuit carrier and as the heat dissipation path, combining multiple functions into a single integrated component.
2Temperature
If a heat sink is used to dissipate heat from the LED, then the heat dissipation effect is improved, but the cost of the LED lamp increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes the separate heat sink component from the assembly, extracting its heat dissipation function and embedding it directly into the LED light source board structure. This eliminates the need for additional heat sink materials and assembly steps, reducing manufacturing cost.
Solution Approach 2:
The metallic substrate of the LED light source board is designed to perform multiple functions simultaneously: electrical connection, structural support, and heat dissipation. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for separate dedicated heat dissipation components, thereby reducing overall manufacturing cost.
3Illumination intensity
If the LED power is increased, then the illumination intensity is improved, but the heat generation increases requiring a larger heat sink
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by designing the heat dissipation path to be optimized at the specific location where the LED chips are mounted. The thin metallic substrate provides high thermal conductivity precisely where needed, concentrating heat dissipation capability at the heat generation source rather than requiring a uniformly large heat sink volume.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the heat dissipation function from the bulk heat sink and concentrates it into the integrated light source board structure. This allows high-power LED illumination without requiring proportionally large heat sink volume, as the heat dissipation path is built into the compact board structure itself.
