Solution Overview

Problem

Current pest control compositions lack effective controlling activity on a wide range of pests, including sap-sucking, chewing, and other harmful insects, as well as plant diseases.

Innovation Solution

A pest control composition comprising pyribencarb combined with specific insecticide compounds such as cartap hydrochloride, etofenprox, silafluofen, permethrin, ethiprole, clothianidin, dinotefuran, thiamethoxam, and nitenpyram, applied in various formulations, exhibiting a synergistic effect for enhanced pest control.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional pest control compositions are used, then application is simple, but controlling activity on pests is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontrolling activityVSAvoidcomposition complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines pyribencarb (a carbamate insecticide) with specific insecticide compounds from Group (A) including cartap hydrochloride, etofenprox, silafluofen, permethrin, ethiprole, clothianidin, dinotefuran, thiamethoxam, and nitenpyram. This merging of different insecticide classes with distinct modes of action creates synergistic effects that significantly enhance pest controlling activity while maintaining composition simplicity through defined compound pairings.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Adaptability or versatility

If single insecticide compounds are used, then composition is simple, but spectrum of pest control is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespectrum of pest controlVSAvoidnumber of ingredients
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal pest control composition where pyribencarb serves as a base compound that can be paired with any insecticide from Group (A), enabling the formulation to control multiple types of pests including sap-sucking insects, chewing insects, and other harmful insects. This multi-functional approach allows a single composition framework to address diverse pest infestations without requiring multiple different formulations.

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