Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional car spoilers require time-consuming adjustments and replacements to match varying environmental conditions, which is impractical for time-sensitive applications like racing.

Innovation Solution

A car spoiler design with detachable and interchangeable spoiler pieces that can be easily assembled and disassembled via connecting members, allowing quick adjustments to shape, size, and curvature for improved stability.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the car spoiler is designed with fixed structure, then the manufacturing precision and structural strength are improved, but the adaptability to different environmental conditions and the time required for adjustment deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural strengthVSAvoidadaptability to different environmental conditions
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The car spoiler is divided into a main body and multiple detachable spoiler pieces. Each spoiler piece can be independently selected and attached to the main body through connecting members, allowing the spoiler to be reconfigured for different environmental conditions while maintaining structural integrity through standardized connection interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If the car spoiler is designed with interchangeable spoiler pieces, then the adaptability to different environmental conditions is improved, but the device complexity and the time required for adjustment deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to different environmental conditionsVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The main body is designed with universal connecting members that can accommodate multiple types of spoiler pieces with different shapes, sizes, angles, and curvatures. The standardized connection interface allows a single main body to work with various spoiler pieces, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining high adaptability.

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

3Adaptability or versatility

If the car spoiler requires frequent adjustments, then the adaptability to changing airflow conditions is improved, but the loss of time and the time required for adjustment deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to changing airflow conditionsVSAvoidtime required for adjustment
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The car spoiler is designed with dynamic reconfigurability, allowing users to quickly detach and attach different spoiler pieces to the main body based on changing environmental conditions. The simplified connection mechanism enables rapid adjustments without requiring complex tools or procedures, minimizing time loss while maintaining adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

A car spoiler may include a spoiler, and the spoiler has two arms, a main body, and two lateral portions. The two arms secured on a vehicle are connected to the main body, and each of two lateral ends of the main body is connected to one lateral portion. A rear side of the main body has at least a spoiler piece, and the spoiler piece is assembled with the main body through any number of connecting member, so that the different shapes, sizes, angles and curvatures of spoiler piece is detached, replaced, and reassembled with the main body to improve the stability of the vehicle.
