Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional paperboard connections are used, then the structure is simple, but the assembly is cumbersome and cannot be mass-produced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemass production capabilityVSAvoidassembly convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical connections (nails, screws, adhesives) with magnetic fields. Magnets embedded in the paperboard components attract each other to form stable connections, enabling easy assembly and mass production while maintaining structural integrity.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the connection mechanism from mechanical to magnetic by embedding magnets in the paperboard components. This parameter change enables automatic alignment and stable connection through magnetic attraction, solving the assembly convenience problem while enabling mass production.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If magnets are added for connection, then assembly is easy, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly convenienceVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the magnets directly into the paperboard components during manufacturing. The magnets are embedded within the paperboard layers, combining the connection function with the structural components themselves, thereby reducing overall device complexity while maintaining ease of assembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The paperboard components serve multiple functions: they provide structural support, contain embedded magnets for connection, and form the gift box structure itself. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate connection elements, thereby reducing device complexity while maintaining ease of assembly.

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

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of gift box paperboards, and provides a novel gift box paperboard, including a first box body. A first paperboard is arranged on one side of the first box body. A clamping block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first paperboard. A second paperboard is arranged on one side of the first paperboard. A clamping groove used in cooperation with the clamping block is formed in one side of the second paperboard. The problem that paperboard boxes are very cumbersome to make and cannot be massively produced due to inconvenient connection between paperboards in related technologies is solved.
