Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional data cables focus on efficient data and energy transfer but neglect the health implications of prolonged use, leading to issues like neck stiffness and carpal tunnel syndrome due to poor posture during electronic device usage.
Innovation Solution
A data cable integrating a massage module controlled by a master control module, allowing users to control massage functions through input/output modules for personalized and flexible massage experiences while maintaining data and power transfer capabilities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If a data cable integrates massage function, then user comfort and health care are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines data transmission, power supply, and massage functions into a single integrated cable system. The master control module coordinates these functions by receiving user instructions and controlling the massage module accordingly, while the first and second input/output modules handle both data and power signals. This merging approach provides comprehensive health care without requiring separate devices.
Solution Approach 2:
The cable is designed to perform multiple functions: data transmission through the first input/output module, power supply through the second input/output module, and massage therapy through the dedicated massage module. The master control module enables the cable to switch between different working modes (data transmission only, power supply only, or combined massage and data/power transmission), making it a universal health care device that adapts to various user needs.
2Adaptability or versatility
If massage module is added to data cable, then massage function is provided, but cable structure becomes complex
Solution Approach 1:
The cable is divided into distinct functional modules: the first input/output module for data transmission, the second input/output module for power supply, the master control module for coordination, and the massage module for therapy. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently while maintaining overall system simplicity through modular architecture.
Solution Approach 2:
The cable employs dynamic control through the master control module, which receives real-time user instructions and adjusts the massage module's operation accordingly. The system can switch between different working modes (data transmission only, power supply only, or combined modes), providing adaptability without requiring complex permanent structural changes.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple modules are integrated in sequence, then functionality is enhanced, but appearance becomes less neat
Solution Approach 1:
The patent arranges the first input/output module, master control module, massage module, and second input/output module in a nested or compact sequential configuration. The massage module is positioned between the control module and the output module, creating a space-efficient layout that maintains a neat external appearance while accommodating all functional components within the cable structure.
