Solution Overview
Problem
Existing massage devices for male reproductive organs lack the simulated effect, leading to user disinterest over time due to a lack of dynamic movement and varying diameter, which cannot be achieved with traditional rod or electric motor designs.
Innovation Solution
A drive mechanism comprising a drive member, an active component, and a support member, where the active component is sleeved on the support member, allowing for straight reciprocating movement and varying diameter through a transmission connection, utilizing frameworks and a transmission component with a screw and nut seat for expanding and reducing effects.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If a traditional rod or electric motor is used in the massage device, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the simulated effect cannot be achieved and user interest is lost over time
Solution Approach 1:
The active component is divided into multiple frameworks (first framework, second framework, etc.) that can independently expand and contract. This segmentation allows each framework to contribute to the simulated effect while maintaining manufacturing simplicity through modular construction.
Solution Approach 2:
The massage device transitions from a static rod structure to a dynamic structure where the active component can expand and contract along the axial direction. The frameworks are designed to change shape dynamically, providing varying diameters and simulated effects during operation.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the active component is designed to expand and reduce in diameter, then the simulated effect is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The frameworks are nested within each other, with the first framework containing the second framework, and so on. This nesting arrangement allows the active component to achieve complex expansion and contraction movements while maintaining a compact structure and avoiding excessive complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
Multiple frameworks are combined into a single active component that works together to produce the simulated effect. The frameworks share common structural elements and are integrated through the drive mechanism, reducing overall device complexity while achieving the desired simulated effect.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the frameworks are arranged with inclined planes, then the expanding and reducing effects are enhanced, but the manufacturing precision requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The inclined planes are specifically designed with different inclinations for different frameworks. The first framework has a first inclination angle while the second framework has a second inclination angle, allowing each local region to be optimized for its specific function while maintaining overall manufacturability.
