Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing oil spray devices require a complex process and high costs due to the use of different materials with distinct springback properties for the trigger and arcuate arm, and the dome valve structure is prone to malfunctions in oil dispensing.
Innovation Solution
An oil spray bottle design with a trigger protrusion made of the same material as the handle, synchronizing its motion with the handle, and a piston structure inside the atomizing nozzle that opens and closes the oil outlet channel under oil pressure, using springs for reliable operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If different materials with distinct springback properties are used for the trigger and arcuate arm, then the springback capability is improved, but the manufacturing complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the trigger and arcuate arm into a single integral structure, eliminating the need for separate components with different materials. This merging approach maintains the required springback capability while significantly simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing costs, as no special molds or multi-material injection processes are needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent modifies the physical parameters of the integral trigger structure by optimizing its geometric shape and thickness distribution to achieve the necessary springback characteristics. Through parameter optimization rather than material differentiation, the design attains reliable elastic deformation and recovery while using a single material system.
2Ease of operation
If a dome valve structure is used for oil dispensing, then the oil outlet control is achieved, but the reliability and resistance to malfunction decrease
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and eliminates the dome valve component from the system, replacing it with a direct piston-driven oil outlet mechanism. This removal of the problematic dome valve structure eliminates the inherent malfunctions associated with dome valve springback failures, while the oil outlet control function is maintained through the piston's direct mechanical action.
3Strength
If an integral arcuate arm structure is used for trigger springback, then the structural strength is improved, but the manufacturing cost and process complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The trigger and arcuate arm are merged into a single molded component, which maintains the structural strength benefits of the integral arcuate design while eliminating the high manufacturing costs associated with multi-material injection molding and special molds. The unified structure can be produced more efficiently using standard molding processes.

AI summary
Disclosed is an oil spray bottle, including an oil storage container, a shroud shell and an oil pumping module. In order to facilitate the pouring of oil into the oil storage container, the oil storage container is designed to be capable of being detached from the oil pumping module, the oil storage container is in threaded connection with the oil pumping module, that is, an external thread is formed at an opening of the oil storage container, and an inner thread is formed on an inner wall of the oil pumping module; and in order to hide the oil pumping module, improve its aesthetics and enable a user to hold the oil spray bottle easily, the shroud shell is fixed to an outside of the oil pumping module.
