Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional string lamps have monotonous lighting effects due to straightly arranged lamp bulbs and require cumbersome winding and unwinding for decoration, while existing net lamps suffer from disorderly connected wires.

Innovation Solution

A net lamp design featuring conductive and insulated wires connected by fasteners, forming a staggered net-like structure with sheath bodies that solidify under ultraviolet irradiation or are elastic, allowing for an ordered and easy-to-deploy decorative arrangement.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If traditional string lamps use straightly arranged lamp bulbs on a single conductive wire, then the structure is simple, but the lighting effect is monotonous and the decoration process is cumbersome

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedecoration processVSAvoidlamp structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from a one-dimensional linear arrangement of lamp bulbs to a two-dimensional net-like structure. Multiple conductive wires are arranged parallel to each other and connected by insulated wires, creating a planar network that can be draped over surfaces more easily and provides more versatile decorative arrangements while maintaining structural simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

The lamp system is divided into multiple independent conductive wires, each carrying lamp bulbs, which are then connected by insulated wires to form a modular net structure. This segmentation allows for easier handling, deployment, and arrangement compared to a single continuous wire, while the modular nature maintains manufacturing simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Ease of operation

If existing net lamps use strand wires connected without fasteners, then the deployment is easy, but the connected wires are in disorder

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovedeploymentVSAvoidwire arrangement order
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

Insulated wires serve as intermediary connectors between the conductive wires. These insulated wires systematically join the conductive wires at regular intervals to form the net structure, providing both mechanical connection and organizational order. The insulated wires act as a mediating element that maintains structural integrity and visual order during deployment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The conductive wires and insulated wires are pre-arranged in a specific staggered pattern before final assembly. This preliminary organization ensures that when the net lamp is deployed, the wires naturally maintain their ordered arrangement rather than becoming disordered, as the connection points and wire orientations are predetermined in the design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Stability of the object's composition

If fasteners are used to connect conductive and insulated wires in a staggered pattern, then the wire arrangement is ordered, but the manufacturing process becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewire arrangement orderVSAvoidassembly process
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent specifies particular parameters for the staggered connection pattern, such as the spacing between connection points and the orientation of wires. By defining these parameters clearly, the manufacturing process becomes more standardized and controllable. The fasteners are positioned at specific intervals and angles, transforming the assembly into a repeatable process with defined parameters rather than arbitrary connections.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
