Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional pins and limiting structures are used to attach temples to frames, then the temples are securely fixed, but the temples become difficult to detach and install and are prone to damage after long term use

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecure fixationVSAvoiddifficulty to detach and install
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the conventional mechanical pin and limiting structure system with a magnetic field-based attachment system. Magnetic pieces are embedded in the frames and temple ends, creating a magnetic attraction force that secures the temples while allowing easy attachment and detachment through simple approach and separation movements, eliminating the complexity of pin insertion and limiting structure engagement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the attachment mechanism from mechanical interlocking to magnetic field interaction. By adjusting magnetic field strength parameters and the distance between magnetic pieces, the system achieves secure fixation during normal use while enabling easy detachment when needed, resolving the contradiction between reliability and ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If conventional pins and limiting structures are used to attach temples to frames, then the temples are securely fixed, but the temples are prone to damage after long term use

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the mechanical pin and limiting structure system with a magnetic field-based attachment system. Magnetic pieces are embedded in the frames and temple ends, creating a magnetic attraction force that secures the temples while allowing easy attachment and detachment through simple approach and separation movements, eliminating the complexity of pin insertion and limiting structure engagement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The magnetic attachment system provides self-aligning and self-latching functionality. When the temple approaches the frame, the magnetic field automatically guides and secures the connection without requiring precise manual alignment or forceful insertion, reducing stress on components and preventing damage from improper installation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Ease of operation

If magnetic pieces are used to connect temples with installation pieces, then the temples can be easily detached and replaced, but the connection strength may be reduced

Engineering Contradiction:

AI summary

The present invention provides a magnetically adsorption temple replaceable glasses. Since the temples are connected to the installation pieces through the first magnetic pieces, the temples can be quickly disassembled and replaced. The user can easily replace the temples in different occasions or according to needs, thereby improving the flexibility of use. By adopting the cooperation of magnetic connection, the user can easily achieve the docking and separation of the temples and the installation pieces, thereby improving the convenience and operating experience of the user and reducing the damage to the temples. By using the bending pieces and the nose pads, the wearing comfort is increased, which is suitable for people with different face shapes and helps to improve the user's long-term wearing experience. By setting the second magnetic part, it can adsorb and fix not limited to the lens or the glasses frame with the lens, thereby increasing the functionality of the glasses and realizing multiple uses of one mirror. Therefore, the present invention solves the technical problem in the prior art that the temples of smart glasses are easily damaged and inconvenient to disassemble and assemble.
