Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple light-emitting chips of different colors are arranged on the substrate, then the luminous color can be adjusted, but the luminous color uniformity deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveluminous color adjustmentVSAvoidluminous color uniformity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The substrate is divided into multiple light-emitting regions, with each region containing a specific arrangement of light-emitting chips. This segmentation allows different regions to emit different colors while maintaining overall color uniformity across the entire substrate surface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different light-emitting regions are assigned different color characteristics based on the specific arrangement of red, green, and blue light-emitting chips in each region. This local quality approach enables precise control of luminous color distribution across the substrate.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Manufacturing precision

If rotational placement methods are used to address luminous uniformity, then color uniformity improves, but the substrate area increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveluminous color uniformityVSAvoidsubstrate area
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from conventional linear or grid arrangements to a radial arrangement of light-emitting chips around a central axis. This dimensional change in the arrangement pattern enables better light mixing and color uniformity while maintaining a compact circular substrate footprint.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

The substrate adopts a circular geometry with light-emitting chips arranged in radial patterns around a central axis. This curved, radial arrangement improves light distribution and color uniformity while minimizing the substrate area compared to flat rectangular arrangements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #14Spheroidality (Curvature)

3Area of stationary object

If light-emitting chips are arranged in a compact pattern, then substrate area is reduced, but gaps between chips increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesubstrate areaVSAvoidchip arrangement density
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The radial arrangement of light-emitting chips around a central axis in circular light-emitting regions eliminates gaps between chips while maintaining compact substrate area. This dimensional reorganization allows continuous light emission patterns without dead zones.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

Multiple light-emitting chips of different colors are merged into integrated light-emitting regions arranged radially. This merging approach ensures continuous light coverage without gaps while maintaining compact substrate dimensions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
