Solution Overview

Problem

The use of freehand boards for hair coloring services is time-consuming, inefficient, and lacks precision, stability, and control, leading to increased costs and compromised hair integrity.

Innovation Solution

A mobile color and style application device with adjustable towers, platforms, and quick-connect coupling mechanisms, including magnetic connectors, that allow for efficient hair sectioning, precise color application, and improved control, featuring platforms that can be easily attached to salon walls or chairs, and include heating elements for enhanced lift.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If a freehand board is used for hair coloring, then the stylist can manually apply color, but the service takes a substantial amount of time and is inefficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice completion timeVSAvoidmanual color application efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual mechanical color application with an automated spray booth system that uses mechanical spray mechanisms to apply color uniformly to hair sections, dramatically reducing service time while maintaining precision through controlled spray patterns and positioning mechanisms

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

2Stability of the object's composition

If a freehand board is held in the hand, then portability is achieved, but stability and control are compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveplatform stabilityVSAvoidhandheld portability
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system divides the color application function into separate modular components: a stationary spray booth for stable color application and a separate positioning system for precise placement, allowing each component to optimize its function without compromising the other

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary positioning system that bridges the gap between the stationary spray booth and the mobile client, allowing precise color application without requiring the stylist to manually hold and position the color application device

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Manufacturing precision

If traditional freehand painting is used, then simplicity is maintained, but precision and control are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecolor application precisionVSAvoidsystem structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The spray booth system is designed as a universal platform that can accommodate various hair types, lengths, and coloring techniques through adjustable positioning mechanisms and interchangeable spray attachments, providing precise color application across different scenarios without requiring multiple specialized devices

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