Solution Overview

Problem

Existing pet bath showers have insufficient water outlet length and area, are not suitable for large pets, lack a hair-combing function, and require inconvenient manual operation to turn off the water supply temporarily.

Innovation Solution

A water-spraying and bathing comb for pets that includes a main body with comb teeth, a water outlet system with conical toothed channels, and a handle with a water path controller that allows for adjustable water output and temporary water shutdown with a single button.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Area of stationary object

If a conventional bath shower is used for pets, then the water outlet structure is simple, but the water outlet length and area are insufficient, making it unsuitable for large pets

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewater outlet areaVSAvoidwater outlet structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The water outlet is divided into multiple conical toothed channels arranged in rows, with each channel acting as an independent water outlet. This segmentation increases the total water outlet area while maintaining a manageable structural complexity through modular arrangement of the channels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The water outlet channels are arranged in multiple rows extending in the length direction, transitioning from a single-point outlet to a distributed multi-dimensional outlet structure. This dimensional expansion significantly increases the effective water outlet area without proportionally increasing structural complexity.

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If a conventional bath shower is used for pets, then the structure is simple, but it lacks a hair-combing function, reducing practicability

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovefunctionalityVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The bathing function and combing function are merged into a single integrated device. The conical toothed water outlet channels serve dual purposes: delivering water for bathing and acting as comb teeth for grooming, thereby increasing functionality without adding separate structural components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The conical toothed structure is designed to perform multiple functions simultaneously: water distribution, hair combing, and skin massage. This multi-functionality approach increases adaptability while avoiding the complexity of separate dedicated components for each function.

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

3Ease of operation

If a conventional bath shower is used for pets, then the water control is simple, but it requires turning off the water tap to temporarily stop water, which is inconvenient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewater control convenienceVSAvoidwater path control structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The water path control function is extracted from the main body and integrated into the handle as a separate, easily accessible component. The water path controller with button picks is positioned in the handle where the user can conveniently operate it without needing to reach for or adjust the main water tap, improving ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The water path controller is designed with button picks that automatically control water flow through the conical toothed channels. When pressed, the button picks directly control the water path without requiring manual intervention at the tap, enabling the device to serve itself in managing water flow.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

4Area of stationary object

If the water outlet area is increased to suit large pets, then the bathing coverage is improved, but the device becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewater outlet areaVSAvoidoutlet structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The large water outlet area is achieved by segmenting it into multiple conical toothed channels arranged in rows. Each channel is a simple conical structure, but their collective arrangement creates a large effective outlet area suitable for large pets without requiring a single complex outlet structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
