Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional wall lamps have complex and time-consuming assembly processes due to exposed power cables and switches, which pose a risk of accidental touching or strangulation to children.

Innovation Solution

A connection structure for an LED wall lamp featuring a hidden switch integrated within the LED light module, utilizing a fixer, rotatable sleeve, coupling ring, lampshade, connection seat, and decoration element to facilitate quick assembly and prevent exposure of the switch, allowing the power cable to be easily managed without considering its fixing direction.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the switch and power cable are exposed outside the wall lamp, then the assembly process becomes complicated and time-consuming, but the switch is easily accessible for operation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveswitch accessibilityVSAvoidassembly complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The switch is integrated inside the LED light module housing, nesting the switch within the existing structure. This eliminates the need for separate external switch mounting and power cable management, simplifying assembly while keeping the switch accessible through the module's exterior surface

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

2Ease of operation

If the switch is exposed outside the wall lamp, then it is easily operated, but it can be accidentally touched by children

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveswitch accessibilityVSAvoidaccidental touch hazard
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The switch is nested within the LED light module housing, which provides a protective enclosure. This allows the switch to remain accessible for intentional operation while being protected from accidental contact by children, as it is not exposed on the exterior wall surface

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Ease of manufacture

If the power cable is exposed outside the wall lamp, then electrical connection is straightforward, but it poses strangulation risk to children

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical connection easeVSAvoidstrangulation hazard
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The power cable connection is integrated within the LED light module housing structure, nesting the electrical connection components inside the module. This eliminates exposed power cables on the wall surface while maintaining straightforward electrical connection through the module's integrated design

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The hazardous exposed power cable is extracted from the external environment and relocated inside the LED light module housing. This removes the strangulation hazard from the wall lamp installation while preserving the electrical connection function within the protected module structure

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

4Ease of repair

If the switch and power cable are assembled externally, then individual components are easily replaced, but the overall assembly process becomes time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomponent replaceabilityVSAvoidassembly speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of repairVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The LED light module is designed as a segmented, modular unit with the switch and power cable connection integrated into the module itself. This allows the entire module to be quickly installed as one unit while still enabling easy replacement of individual components by simply removing the module from its mounting structure

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
