Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If air pressure in the oil compartment decreases during liquid consumption, then liquid flow becomes unsmooth, but this leads to poor atomization effect

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveliquid flow smoothnessVSAvoidatomization effect
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The device is divided into separate functional modules: an oil storage bin for liquid storage, an atomization module for atomization, and a ventilation system for air supply. This segmentation allows independent optimization of each function, ensuring stable liquid flow and consistent atomization effect even when air pressure varies during liquid consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The ventilation system continuously supplies air to the atomization module, creating a feedback mechanism that maintains stable air pressure and liquid flow conditions. The air flow path is designed to compensate for pressure changes during liquid consumption, ensuring consistent atomization performance throughout the liquid supply period.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If atomization parameters are changed to meet diverse consumer needs, then user requirements are satisfied, but internal structure becomes complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconsumer group coverageVSAvoidinternal structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The atomization module is designed as a universal, standardized unit that can be integrated with various oil storage bin designs. The modular architecture with standardized connection interfaces allows the same atomization module to serve different consumer groups by simply changing the external packaging or storage bin configuration, without modifying the internal atomization structure.

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

Solution Approach 2:

By separating the atomization function into an independent module, the patent enables flexible configuration where the same atomization core can be paired with different storage bin designs and packaging configurations. This segmentation allows adaptation to diverse consumer needs while maintaining a simple, standardized internal structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Ease of manufacture

If modular design is implemented for simple packaging, then assembly ease is improved, but manufacturing precision requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly easeVSAvoidmodule fit precision
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The device is segmented into standardized modules with predetermined connection interfaces. The support structure includes integrated mounting bins and airflow channels that are pre-formed during module manufacturing, allowing for simple assembly while maintaining precise fit through standardized dimensions and tolerances.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Multiple functional elements are merged into integrated components: the support structure combines mounting bins, airflow channels, and connection interfaces in a single piece. This merging simplifies assembly by reducing the number of separate parts while maintaining manufacturing precision through integrated design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
