Pet Barking Stopper Soft Conductive Brush
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing pet barking stoppers, particularly electric shock types, cause damage to pets due to the need for conductive contact, which can lead to skin and hair issues and severe harm during use.
Innovation Solution
A pet barking stopper comprising a conductive strap, a soft conductive brush, and a controlling circuit that transmits a pulse signal with a specific voltage to stimulate the pet's muscles and meridians, preventing barking without causing harm, using a soft conductive brush to avoid damage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If electric shock type barking stopper is used, then barking can be stopped, but skin and hair damage occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a soft conductive brush as an intermediary between the electric shock mechanism and the pet's body. This brush makes contact with the pet during barking, conducting the electric shock while its soft material prevents skin and hair damage that would occur with direct hard conductor contact.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the physical parameter of the contact element from hard to soft material. The soft conductive brush maintains electrical conductivity while altering the mechanical property to be gentle on the pet's skin and hair, thus preventing damage while still delivering the shock effect.
2Power
If hard conductive number is used for electric shock, then electric shock can be delivered, but severe damage occurs under severe electric shock
Solution Approach 1:
The soft conductive brush serves as a mediator that delivers the electric shock power while protecting the pet from severe damage. The brush's softness ensures that even under severe electric shock conditions, the physical contact remains gentle and non-traumatic to the pet's body.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies beforehand cushioning by using soft material that inherently cushions and protects the pet's skin and hair before any damage can occur. This protective layer is in place prior to electric shock delivery, preventing both minor and severe damage.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If single vibration type barking stopper is used, then no skin damage occurs, but barking stopping effectiveness is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the advantages of both vibration and electric shock mechanisms into one device. The stopping bark assembly can deliver electric shock through the soft conductive brush while the overall system design incorporates vibration elements, combining the gentle contact of vibration with the effective shock delivery.
