Patch Adhesive Sensor Single Peel Activation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional patch-type modules require two separate operations to peel the seal and expose the sticky surface, making them cumbersome to use.
Innovation Solution
A patch-type module design where the protection sheet and seal are attached through an adhesion layer, allowing for a single peeling operation that exposes the sticky surface and initiates air cell function, thereby powering the electronic component.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the seal and protection sheet are separated components requiring separate peeling operations, then the cell can be properly sealed and protected, but the operation becomes troublesome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The seal and protection sheet are merged into a single integrated component where the seal is attached to the protection sheet. This allows both the sealing function and protection function to be achieved simultaneously through a single peeling operation, eliminating the need for separate operations while maintaining reliable cell sealing.
2Ease of manufacture
If separate peeling operations are required for the seal and protection sheet, then each component can be optimized independently, but the usage process becomes cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
By attaching the seal to the protection sheet, the invention combines two previously separate components into one integrated unit. This merging maintains the functional advantages of having separate optimized components while eliminating the time loss associated with sequential peeling operations.
3Reliability
If the seal is attached directly to the substrate, then the cell is properly sealed, but the sticky surface cannot be exposed until a separate peeling operation is performed
Solution Approach 1:
The seal is attached to the protection sheet rather than directly to the substrate. This merging allows the protection sheet to serve dual purposes: protecting the sticky surface and maintaining seal attachment. When the protection sheet is peeled, both the sticky surface is exposed and the seal is removed from the cell, achieving both functions simultaneously.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This design simplifies the usage by enabling a single operation to start the air cell and expose the sticky surface, improving usability and reducing costs by eliminating the need for a cell holder.
Implementation Method 1
a protection sheet that is attached to the sticky surface of the substrate through an adhesion layer, wherein a second surface of the seal, that is opposite to the first surface, is attached to the protection sheet through the adhesion layer

AI summary
A patch-type module includes a substrate provided with one surface and another surface that is a sticky surface; an air cell mounted to the substrate; a seal that blocks air from entering the air cell whose first surface is attached to the air cell; an electronic component mounted on the substrate; and a protection sheet that is attached to the sticky surface of the substrate through an adhesion layer, wherein a second surface of the seal is attached to the protection sheet through the adhesion layer, wherein when the protection sheet is peeled, the adhesion layer and the seal are peeled together to expose the sticky surface of the substrate and start introduction of air inside the air cell so that electric power is capable of being power supplied to the electronic component from the air cell.
