Solution Overview

Problem

Rechargeable lamps require frequent relocation for recharging, disrupting their aesthetic placement and user convenience.

Innovation Solution

A lighting device with a magnet-based attachment system allows for easy detachment and reattachment to a charging base or lampshade, enabling recharging without moving the lamp's position.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the lamp is made rechargeable to achieve autonomy and freedom of positioning, then the lamp can be placed flexibly without power cable constraints, but the lamp has to be moved close to the charger every time it is discharged

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepositioning freedomVSAvoidrecharging convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The lighting device is divided into two separate components: a decorative lamp body that remains in its aesthetic position, and a removable battery pack that can be detached for recharging. This segmentation allows the lamp to maintain its positioning freedom while eliminating the need to move the entire lamp for recharging, as only the small battery pack needs to be removed and recharged elsewhere.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Ease of manufacture

If the lamp is made aesthetically autonomous and furnished independently, then the lamp provides decorative value in its placement area, but the entire lamp must be moved for recharging, depriving the area of embellishment

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaesthetic autonomyVSAvoidrecharging downtime
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

By segmenting the lamp into a permanent decorative housing and a removable battery pack, the invention allows the aesthetic component to remain stationary and continuously provide embellishment, while the functional battery component can be quickly detached and recharged elsewhere, minimizing loss of decorative value during recharging cycles.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The battery pack is designed to be pre-charged externally before being installed in the lamp. This preliminary charging action allows the lamp to be quickly deployed in its aesthetic position without waiting for on-site charging, thereby maintaining continuous decorative presence while enabling periodic recharging.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Ease of operation

If the battery pack is made easily removable for recharging, then the same battery pack can be replaced when run out, but the magnet attachment system requires precise positioning for proper connection

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebattery replacement easeVSAvoidpositioning precision
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The magnet attachment system provides self-aligning and self-latching functionality. The magnetic force automatically guides the battery pack into the correct position during insertion and maintains secure connection, eliminating the need for precise manual positioning by the user while ensuring reliable electrical and mechanical connection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
