Solution Overview

Problem

Current lighting fixtures in the industry are inefficient, costly, and occupy significant inventory space due to their low lighting efficiency, long production cycle, and the need for multiple fixtures to accommodate different display screen specifications.

Innovation Solution

A multi-station lighting system comprising a lighting fixture with a body module, an adjustment module, a test module, and a carrier module, which allows for quick and accurate adjustment and switching between display screens of different specifications, reducing replacement time and improving efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If one lighting fixture is dedicated to test one display screen of specific specification, then the lighting test can be performed accurately, but the lighting efficiency is low and the replacement efficiency is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelighting test accuracyVSAvoidlighting efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The lighting fixture is designed with a universal structure that can accommodate multiple display screen specifications through detachable mounting mechanisms. The fixture body includes standardized mounting interfaces and adjustable positioning systems that allow a single fixture to serve multiple testing purposes across different product sizes, thereby improving lighting efficiency while maintaining test accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Measurement precision

If the entire jig is replaced when switching display screens of different specifications, then the correct fixture can be used for each screen size, but the replacement efficiency is low and it takes a long time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefixture-screen matching accuracyVSAvoidreplacement time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The lighting fixture is divided into detachable modules including a fixed fixture body and removable mounting components. This segmentation allows only the necessary mounting parts to be quickly exchanged when testing different display specifications, rather than replacing the entire fixture assembly, thus reducing replacement time while ensuring proper fit for each screen size

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The fixture incorporates dynamic adjustment mechanisms such as movable mounting positions and adjustable clamping structures that can be quickly reconfigured for different display screen specifications. This dynamic capability enables rapid adaptation between different product sizes without time-consuming replacements, maintaining measurement precision while improving operational efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Measurement precision

If display screens of different specifications correspond to different lighting fixtures, then each screen can be tested with the appropriate fixture, but the variety and quantity of lighting fixtures is large and inventory space is occupied

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetest accuracy for different specificationsVSAvoidfixture versatility
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The lighting fixture employs a universal mounting system with standardized interfaces and adjustable positioning capabilities that enable a single fixture design to accommodate multiple display screen specifications. This universality reduces the variety and quantity of fixtures needed in inventory while maintaining the ability to perform accurate lighting tests across different product sizes through proper mechanical adaptation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
