Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple aroma diffusers are used to release various scents simultaneously, then the scent release capability is improved, but the device quantity and cost increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescent release capabilityVSAvoiddevice quantity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple atomizing devices and aroma bottle fixing sites into a single housing structure. The housing contains at least two atomizing devices (each with atomizing sheets and vibration elements) and multiple aroma bottle fixing sites, allowing one diffuser unit to release multiple scents simultaneously through coordinated operation of the atomizing devices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The housing structure is designed as a universal platform that can accommodate multiple aroma bottles and support multiple atomizing devices. This multi-functional design enables a single device to perform the function of multiple separate aroma diffusers, providing versatile scent release capabilities while reducing the total number of devices needed.

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

2Volume of moving object

If the vibration device and atomizing sheet are positioned within a small housing structure, then the device compactness is improved, but the assembly time and cost increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehousing sizeVSAvoidassembly time
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the atomizing system into modular components: separate atomizing devices, each containing an atomizing sheet and vibration element, that can be independently assembled and then integrated into the housing. The housing itself is segmented with distinct mounting areas for multiple aroma bottles and atomizing devices, facilitating organized assembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The housing structure is pre-designed with integrated mounting features including fixing sites, snap-fit connections, and positioning structures for the atomizing devices and aroma bottles. These preliminary structural preparations enable rapid assembly without requiring complex positioning operations during the assembly process, thereby reducing assembly time despite the compact multi-component design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

Disclosed is a multifunctional aroma diffuser. A housing is provided with an atomizing mounting part, and the atomizing mounting part includes at least two bottle body fixing sites, at least two air nozzles, and at least two atomizing fixing sites. At least two of the atomizing devices are arranged and correspond to the two atomizing fixing sites respectively. Either of the atomizing devices includes an atomizing shell, an atomizing sheet and an atomizing elastic member, and at least one atomizing hole is formed in the atomizing sheet. The bottle body fixing sites can be configured for fixing aroma bottles. By increasing the bottle body fixing sites in the atomizing mounting part, a plurality of the aroma bottles can be fixed, and only one aroma diffuser is needed to release various scents of aroma from a plurality of the aroma bottles simultaneously.
