Nested Shell Decorative Product With Circulating Water Flow
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current scene decoration products, such as decorative crystal balls, are heavy and inefficient due to the need for large water volumes, which wastes water and results in poor decoration effects since the water is typically static.
Innovation Solution
A scene decoration product design featuring a shell and inner container with an actuating device that creates a circulating water flow by using a magnetic suction mechanism, reducing the required water volume and enhancing the decorative effect.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If the ball body is filled with a large amount of water to achieve decoration effect, then the decoration effect is improved, but the product becomes heavy and inconvenient to carry
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the water-containing space into two segments: an inner container and an outer shell, with the water confined to the gap between them. This segmentation allows the water to be isolated in a controlled space, reducing the overall weight while maintaining the decorative water effect.
Solution Approach 2:
The inner container is nested within the outer shell, creating a hierarchical structure where the water-holding gap is formed between these nested components. This nesting approach maximizes the use of internal space, allowing sufficient water volume for decoration while minimizing the overall product footprint and weight.
2Quantity of substance
If the ball body is filled with a large amount of water to achieve decoration effect, then the decoration effect is improved, but water is wasted
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting the water-containing space into a confined gap between the inner container and outer shell, the patent enables precise control over water volume. This prevents excessive water usage while maintaining adequate decorative effect, and allows for easy water replacement without waste.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies partial action by using only the minimum necessary water volume in the gap between containers, rather than filling the entire ball body. This partial water filling achieves the decorative purpose without the excess water that would lead to waste.
3Device complexity
If most water injected into the ball body is static, then the structure is simple, but the decoration effect is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the static water structure into a dynamic one by introducing a rotating inner container that stirs the water in the gap. This dynamic element creates moving water patterns and enhances the decorative effect without requiring complex external mechanisms, maintaining relative structural simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The inner container serves a dual function: it acts as both the rotating stirring element and the structural component defining the water-holding gap. This self-service approach allows the same component to create water motion while maintaining the structural framework, avoiding the need for separate complex driving mechanisms.
